Hey everybody I'm trying to upgrade my PC by installing a GTX 1070 FE but my current PSU is really bad so I want to ask if this PSU: https://www.corsair.com/uk/en/Categories/Products/Power-Supply-Units/vs-series-config-2018/p/CP-9020172-UK

would be enough to run:

Processor: i7 7700

GPU: GTX 1070 FE

HDD: Toshiba 1000GB SATA 7200 RPM

8 GB CRUCIAL DDR4 RAM 2400Mhz

no, get a CX550M instead.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Even 400w unit can power your current system, even for future compatibility you dont need more than 650w unless you're going HEDT or multiple flagship graphics cards

Thank you guys for the feedback, I live outside US and its very hard for me to get those kind of PSU. I'm limited for the ones I can find here where I live. I found another one https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-N1-0650-L1

not sure if its good enough. Any idea?

belongs to the incinerator. No idea why a budget unit will even need such a high power output when people buying them wont need more than half of that.

 

Oh and it's no better than the VS

It's impossible for us (and a waste of our time so far) to choose a PSU for you, if we don't know what PSUs are available in your area and for what price. If we don't know what you have, we can go back-and-forth forever with "is PSU X available?" "no" "is PSU Y available?" "no".

We need at least a link to a store you use.
