For 4 1080s 1000W would be the right wattage. One 1080 would be fine on a 450W....

 

Get an EVGA 650W G2 and that should satisfy your needs aplenty. 

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Yes. I have a GTX 970 and a 500w PSU is easily enough for it.

 

Winning an argument with a woman step by step

step one - talk to her

step two - fight with her for 2 hours even if you are really right

step three - admit that she is right for the sake of your safety

step four - realize that you have accomplished nothing and she still thinks you were wrong and now she thinks you are even more stupid

Yeah, 970s use next to no power for how much oomph they pack. You could run two 970s off a 550W if you so desired.

1070s consume even less power so building's going to be easy on the wattage this year.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here
