Motherboard and Power supply compatibility?

cheiften98

Hello
Im looking to upgrade my cpu, ram and motherboard. PC Partpicker says my power supply has compatibly issues but im fairly sure its just for overclocking. Am I right in that or will I need to upgrade my psu too. Im not interested in overclocking right now. 

Thank you

While it is compatible and will work, I'd still step up the PSU to a 750/800W 80+ Gold. PSUs are most efficient at 50% load and slowly drop from there. at the 750/800W level you'd be sitting just around mid limit while gaming and such.

its a 65w cpu so you will only need the single 4 pin, probably even when overclocking as well, since i doubt you can make that cpu get anywhere near 144w
