Hi LinusTechTips community,
I have a quick question concerning my PSU.
What wattage would you guys recommend? I'm asking this because I think my PSU is underpowering my system since I bought a new CPU , and yesterday it just shut off mid-game. (Error 41)
Specs are as follows:
i7 6800k @3.6ghz with overvoltage around 1.36v (using the motherboards performance mode)
ASUS sabertooth x99
Msi GTX 980ti golden edition (on OC mode 1291 MHz Boost / 1190 MHz Base / 7096 MHz Mem
2 140mm fans, one 120mm
1 HDD and one sata SSD
4 Ram sticks 4x4gb
CoolerMaster Hyper 412s (going to upgrade this to another cooler this month, likely an AIO 280mm)
Currently Running it with a Corsair HX 520w PSU.
Should this be enough or should I get higher wattage PSU. (also taking into account i'm likely to OC the CPU to around ~3.8ghz when the cooler has arrived)
Thanks in advance guys
