Posted April 28, 2020 What components are you actually using? The motherboard itself doesn't use much power.

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like does it have enough cables to give power to everything? It is compatible since the B360 Gaming Plus has an 8-pin EPS connector and that's exactly what the EVGA 400W comes with. But 1) The EVGA 400W is a piece of garbage, I wouldn't pair it with a gaming computer 2) Just because your PSU is compatible with your motherboard doesn't mean it's OK for your build. The PSU must be compatible with the GPU, CPU, RAM, and storage as well in both connectors and wattage that's why the PSU is one of the last things you choose. Not only that but the PSU also has to be good quality like I hinted in the first point. 3) It has nothing to do with the topic but B360 motherboard means you are planning on building an intel based PC and intel isn't a good value for budget gaming PCs unless you live in a rare country where for some reason intel CPUs are cheap, which aren't many. 2 hours ago, Dan Flame said: Motherboard: MSI B360 Gaming Plus, Cpu: Intel i3 8100, CPU cooler: CRYORIG M9i 48.4 CFM CPU Cooler, GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB, RAM: 2 Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400MHz 4GB Sticks, SSD: Crucial MX500 - 500GB, Fans: 5 ML120 PRO LED Red 120mm PWM Premium Magnetic Levitation Fans, Case: Carbide Series Spec-05 Are you buying used? Because it seems like many of these parts are last-gen stuff. I don't recommend them unless you find a really good deal on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
