Is a 450w PSU enough for a GTX 1070?

Hello, I want to pair an i5 7600 with a GTX 1070 together to replace my current i3 6100 and GTX 1050 Ti. I was wondering if my Corsair CX450M PSU is enough for both the i5 7600 and 1070 so that I don't need to buy a new PSU, I will not be doing any sort of overclocking, just purely for browsing and gaming. Any help would be gladly appreciated!

its enough but you wont be running at the efficiency peak probably, if that dosent matter much to you then go ahead

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
