R9 390 and 4790k with a 550w psu

Go to solution Solved by i_build_nanosuits,

and if i want to over clock?

you have plenty of headroom my machine from the wall pull 400W maximum under full CPU and GPU load running synthetic benchmarks (very unrealistic load) so at 90% efficiency that mean the parts only need around 360W of clean power...and i think the 980ti is even a bit more power hungry than the R9 390 (might be wrong, i think they are pretty similar...in power consumption i mean not in performance)

Yes it can, you're good.

my PC has similar power requirements and it run on a 550W PSU without any issues the thing does not even get hot and everything is overclocked.

Not sure but i think your PSU is a good one with gold rated efficiency and shit? if that's the case then you,re good to go!

 

EDIT: did a quick check and yes that PSU definitely compare to mine, you're good!

You still have plenty of headroom, 4.7ghz on cpu and 1150 on gpu will be no problem to power

Holy shit! A thread where someone didn't recommend a nuclear reactor for a Hawaii card. The future is bright.
