Hello guys,

 

I am asking for a friend. Do you think a 450w PSU will be enough for:

  - I7 4790k

  - GTX 770

  - 2x8Gb ddr3 ram

  - No rgb or crazy stuffs

 

I think it should be just enough but you might proove me wrong :)

 

Thanks for the answers and have a nice day.

Yes its enough but it should be a decent quality unit.

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @ me @Prodigy_Smit for me to see your replies.

Seems like enough, what PSU specifically do you have? If it's a bad unit I would still recommend upgrading it.

geometry is hard
b550 > x570
