intel core i5-3570k

ASUS P8Z77-V LK

corsair vengeance 8GB (2x4gb)

WD blue 500 gb 3.5" 7200rpm

EVGA geforce GTX 760 2GB

LiteOn ihas124-04 DVD/CD


I was thinking of putting a 750w psu in it. i used outervision psu calculator and it did not have gtx 760 so i put in 560 ti instead. it recommended 650w minimum. So I don't know...suggestions?

You could use a 500w PSU and be perfectly fine.

Make sure it is from Antec, XFX, Corsair, Seasonic to ensure it is a quality unit.

IMHO, there's no such thing as PSU overkill.

That system will likely draw a total of 350w under full load.

That is a quality PSU.
