Do I need so much?

Go to solution Solved by EarthboundHero,

You don't need that much, but that PSU is one of the best available so I'd keep it.

So I'm not on a tight budget, but I'd hate to spend $140 AUD on a good 750w power supply when I don't even need 750w.

 

I do plan on getting another 970 in the future but I still think 750w might be overkill.

 

I plan on overclocking my CPU and maybe my Graphics cards.

I see, is there a cheaper 750w PSU you could find? Not too sure about a good one for less.

I think I'll just keep the one I originally chose. No way to cheap out of a good PSU.
