Hey!

 

As the title already states will my PSU be fine if i would run this setup?

 

My setup right now:

CPU: I7-4770k

GPU: EVGA GTX780 (Its dying and will be dead in about 2 months probably)

CPU Cooler: CORSAIR Cooling Hydro Series H80i

Motherboard: Asus SABERTOOTH Z87

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR3 1600 (4x 4gb) 

Power supply: Corsair CX750M Bronze 750W

First Harddrive: Seag 2TB 7200rpm

Second Harddrive: (WINDOWS INSTALLED ON) ADA SSD 128GB 520/550

 

Nothing is OC'd and i'm not planning to OC anything anyways...

 

What I'm probably going to get this Xmass is 

ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 1080 OC edition 300W

OR

ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Strix 180W

 

As you can see there are some W difference... will this mather if i go with the OC edition? its actually €50 cheaper...

 

That is my question! thanks in advance for helping me out..

Yes, your psu will be totally fine either way. An OCed 1080 ti plus even an OCed 4770k probably wouldn't even pass 550w

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

750w is more than enough, unless you go for >=250w cards in sli and/or a really power hungry cpu (7900x and higher, threadripper, etc.). Your psu should be fine for you for a long time :)

Nah, ill be fine with a single card for a long time since i will only be playing on 1080p 144hz. I could have went with a 1070 but i think i can save up for a 1080 :D

i would just stick with the 1070, good enough card ... saves  u money in general

 

8 series isnt really worth it on price performance

That is my question! thanks in advance for helping me out..

 

 

 

300W is what it could hypothetically draw through the power cables. 75W for PCIe as well. 

 

A 1080 won't be drawing 300W on it's own though so you're fine with your CX750M.
