Enough or overkill ?

[DimaDSer]

Is Corsair RM750i over than what I need for my PC ?

My pc is:

Intel Core I5-9600K

Asus Rog Strix Z390-H

Asus Rog Strix RTX2060 OC

Arctic Freezer 33 eSports Duo

3x Zalman Led 120mm fans (I will replace them with RGB fans someday)

No, its a good psu.

Good can still mean overkill. A good 500-550w psu like the RM550X would already be more than enough.

 

Here's an example of a system with a 6850k with the 2060 drawing 326w at load: https://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/gpu_displays/asus_rog_strix_rtx_2060_review/21

and 325w with an oc'ed 8700k: https://www.bit-tech.net/reviews/asus-geforce-rtx-2060-rog-strix-oc-review/10/

Yeah, kinda overkill but there's nothing like preparing for the future.

Don't use the f word, man.

 

What's the price difference between the 550i and the 750i?

[LukeSavenije]

I'm voting for overkill

Save your money and just get the RMx instead

[zhubaohi]

I mean it's a overkill for your current build, so if you really need to save a few bucks, then go for the RMx everyone else is recommending. However, a good psu often lasts pretty long, going for a 750w psu means that you probably won't need to buy a new psu when you are upgrading your rig a few years later.

 

It's up to you.

There is no RM550i. The RMi starts at 650W.

Could you tell me what's the difference ?

Its definitely overkill but if there's not much difference in the price get the bigger one, no reason not to. If the 550 is a lot cheaper stick with that
