Power Supply usage

[plushkinn]

Guys, I have kind of old PSU cft-750-14cs for 750w by Chieftec with no power efficiency certificate that have been bought in 2011/2012.

Is it okay to use it with new i5-8400 + ASUS Prime z370-A + gtx 1070Ti build?

 

All comments will be appreciated!

Because if it breaks and takes one of your parts with it you will regret it for the rest of your life

That's the good reason. Thanks. I was about 99% sure to replace it and just it catched my eye.

Please replace it. I beg you. That Cheapo PSU can break your whole system so don't ever cheap out on PSUs.

Not just one of the parts. It can take the whole system with it

Wattage isn't too much of a concern as long as it's a quality PSU. The new TXM's would do fine : https://pcpartpicker.com/product/PVzZxr/corsair-txm-gold-650w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020132-na

If you need something a bit cheaper: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Tc3RsY/seasonic-power-supply-ss620gm2 or  https://pcpartpicker.com/product/dDH48d/corsair-txm-gold-550w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020133-na

What's the difference between 550w and 650w? So if i want to add something to PC there's will be no room for it, right? That's why 650w is better?

And the second one, bronze or gold one? Isn't it all about efficiency only, is it? Just for less money spending to pay bills?

The only difference between the 550W and 650W is that one is the watts. You'll have some room with either, just more with the 650. And yes, it's not just about efficiency. I'm just going to link the thread on it so I don't have to type it all out:
