Definitely, need your pc specs to have exact wattage.. 

Also get a different brand, never hear of this one and can't find it anywhere, if you want to go highwattage get EVGA.

May the force be with you - Yoda

No. That PSU would set itself on fire if you tried.

 

See, the thing says 1050W, but it's actually only rated to do 384W on the 12V rail, which is the one that powers your most power hungry components - the CPU and graphics.

 

I would not use this PSU even if someone paid me to use it.

 

You'll have to buy something else.

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

That power supply is having an identity crisis. First it call itself a 1050w but it's model number is ATX-300W-B with an +12V rail (the most important rail on a modern day setup) rated at 32A / 384w. It also trying to make the minor rails more appealing by inflating the 3.3V and 5V rail, which make me feel that this power supply was targeted for systems from the ATX 1.3 era. This is supported by the fact, the power supply have a -5V rail which was removed from ATX specs over a decade ago. You wouldn't see it in a modern day power supply.

wow what the hell needs 30+ Amps on the 5v rail... Using it to charge 15 smartphones on fast charge at once? And I can't even imagine what 30A on the 3.3v rail would do... What even runs off the 3.3v rail these days? some VRM switching circuits? Maybe the chipset? DIMMs? I would've missed voltage rail specs entirely if you hadn't mentioned them..

A CX750 would work. It might not be the best of the best, but it's fine.
