PSU For this build?

Go to solution Solved by Laputacake,

There is no such thing as overkill with a power supply. Refer to this list for the quality of the power supply

For your build, if you dont plan on overclocking any good 500w power supply will be good. If you can get one that is modular for much improved cable management.

If you don't plan on going sli down the road 650 watts should be just fine, and I believe you could even get away with a 500 watt psu. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

A 500w psu will be fine if you aren't going the SLI route in the future but if you plan on getting another 980 then a 650w would be best.
