Posted September 22, 2016 Hi all, I'm new. I just purchase online for this: Motherboard: MSI H110l Pro Processor: Intel Core i3 6100 Ram: G.SKILL ddr4 2133 8Gb x 2 Silverstone SFX ST30SF 300W Small Form Factor 80 PLUS I think that the power supply is nought for this configuration, right? But I want to add a GTX 1060 Mini later. OuterVision Power Supply Calculator says that I'm gonna need 288W, and that's pretty close. Should I contact the seller to change the power supply? Thanks.

People. PSU calculators are garbage. Aside from the fact that an i3 is a colossal bottleneck to any current 10-series GPU, your system will never even see 200W under overclocked load. You're fine. |PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.

You might have to use a double molex to single 6-pin adapter if the PSU doesn't have a PCI-E 6-pin connector. But it will be fine, probably. We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now.

I used one for a year or so and it was great but it wasn't a great pairing with a 290 I used briefly. |PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.

But i3 + 1060/480 (especially the ones with low VRAM since they have the best perf/price) is a better combo than i5 + whatever you can get for $80 less ($150 instead of $230) Dammit AyyyyMD, Y U NO sell RX 470 at $150?

TBH the RX470 should have been 150 from the get-go... Honestly though, as one who used an i3 for quite a long time and would recommend to more people than you might think, for most games it's going to be the first bottleneck. |PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.
