Change psu or just change graphic card later ?

[Qyoon]

Hello 

 

I am using an High end computer atm , basicly really happy on how it performs but i got only one thign that worries me a bit.

I am atm running a 6800K @ 4,2Ghz 1,25V and a GTX980Ti @1400Mhz on the GPU , 1850Mhz on VRAM with a 550 (high end) PSU.Bequiet Dark Power Pro 10.

Wich is working perfectly and was enought for my core i5 4690k @ 4,5Ghz 1,16V.

 

But by doing some calculation and finding information around the web.

It's clearly really at my psu limitation atm,  cpu is about 220-230Watt , video card  280Watt not even counting the rest of the pc.

 

I knom i am not using the pc at full load on cpu and gpu at the same time so i am below that in "real" use case.

 

So i am wondering, should i change my PSU or  just wait next GPU generation and change my graphic card for something with a lower power cons anyway ?

 

Thanks for your answers and have a nice day.

you haven't said what video card you are upgrading to

 

550W is generally enough with OCing

 It will be 1080Ti at minimum or wait next generation gpu.

 

Thanks for the rapid answer.

550W is more than enough for any single GPU system. Don't worry.

Well with the power consumption figures for the Titan XP, you'll still be fine with that 550w PSU so...

just for reference the titan xp chews up 150W. that plus your OC still isn't going to hit 550W.
