How many watts for new PSU?

[Redliquid]

Hi hi!  I'm putting a semi new pc together and i just want opinions on how many watts my psu should have.

• Gigabyte GA-H170-HD3-DDR3 - ATX / H170
• Intel Pentium G4560
• ASUS Dual gtx1060-O6G 
• ram 4x4gb sticks
• Case Fans x2
• 1 SSD
• 1 HDD
• DAC FiiO E10k

as well as mouse and keyboard ofc...

 

Im likely to upgrade CPU and GPU at a later stage so some "Future proofing" would be nice

The current PSU im planning to buy is a Be quiet straight power 10 500w 

Thanks in forehand  =)

Yes, 500W is more than enough for pretty much any system nowadays. You could upgrade to an i7 and a GTX 1080 with that.

 

pcpartpicker will give you a close estimate of how many watts your system will use, I'd add 25% to that to be on the safe side.

 

(Not sure why you're going with an H170 board for this setup though...)

The pentiums cant be overclocked so no point in z series, however as the OP is already planning on adding another CPU later I do see your point there

Exactly my point, you're not using any of the features of the H170 chipset with this build. If you want cheap as possible why not get a H110 motherboard?

 

Or, if you want to upgrade later go for a B250. Or Z170 if you want to overclock. You'd need to get DDR4 memory for that though...

a 500w or 550w will be more then fine unless u want to run 2 gpu's then u would want 650 or 750 80+ gold

It seems i can't find any  H110 boards in sweden that also are ddr3 and have 5+ usb ports in the back

(i want all usb peripherals to connect there)

i found a cheaper card =) 

ASUS B150M-PLUS D3

It's mATX which should fit with a define R4 i believe.
Thanks =)
