What power connector do I need for RTX 2070 super?

TheJedi

Just trying to make sure my PSU is compatible with my planned GPU.

 

So what power connector/s do I need to power an RTX 2070 super and what power wattage do you suggest, bear in mind that this is a budget build please.

Case: Phanteks eclipse P400A

Motherboard: MSI B550 Gaming Carbon WiFi

GPU: MSI RTX 3060 TI Gaming X Trio

RAM: 16GB XPG D60G CL16 3200MHZ

PSU: Sharkoon SilentStorm Cool Zero 650W

Storage: Crucial P2 1TB

You should be able to get away with like 650 watts maybe even less (not that I would recommend it), basically any PSU should have the necessary connectors. If I were you I would probably aim for at least 750W so things are somewhat future proofed (you can still get some good deals).

650w is more than enough if it is a good psu.

Pleas say that you are getting a 2070 after the price drop. It seems to be a 6+8 pin.

I could use some help with this!

please, pm me if you would like to contribute to my gpu bios database (includes overclocking bios, stock bios, and upgrades to gpus via modding)

Yes definitely, it will be in Feb 2021. So it will be both 6 and 8 pins I will need?
