PSU WATT Problem Question

redsn0 · Apr 24, 2014

Here are my specs: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/redsn0/saved/4b9v

I saw that a gtx 770 4gb and a 2gb use 600 WATTS.

Is this true? Would my 600W PSU be able to handle my build? or should I bump it up to a 800W PSU?

I am NOT planning to overclock the cpu or the graphics card in the future.

GTX770 is recommended to be run in a system with 600watt PSU so yes 650watts will run it fine!

The GTX 770 requires 42A on the +12V rail(s) and approximately 600W in order to have sufficient power. The Corsair RM 650 loads 54A on the +12V rail and gives 650W, so you can use it fine.

600W is the recommended PSU size. At stock (not overclocked) speeds it draws 230Wmax. So you are fine at a 600W PSU of good quality

The card itself will not use 600w, at max it will use 250w.The 600w recommendation is for the entire system. If you havenet bought the PSU yet there are better options in that price range.
