Could someone please check if  in my build I have enough power from the power supply, this is my first pc build and im not sure. The site i am using said that my graphics card needed a psu with at least 500 watt. But i don't know what else uses power and how much so im hoping that someone can check for me before i order the parts.

Yes, A friend has exactly that same PSU with a i7 4790K and GTX 970, also I did a "mini-review" of the 630 W model. Though at that price there might be better choices

EDIT: Nvm, damn mate! what's your VAT in there? here it's 21 % and things aren't that expensive...

This is a signature.

You should be fine with 500

But please don't buy an AMD CPU

 

Also, try PC part picker
