How many watts will my build need?

100000th · Aug 15, 2014

I'm planning on a build and want to know how many watts the computer will need, so I can get the correct power supply for maximum efficiency. Also, I would like to thank anyone that helps me with this.

My planned build is:
Western Digital 4TB Black Hard Drive
2 Nvidia GTX 780 Ti with ACX Cooler 3GB that will use SLI
Intel Core i7-4790K Processor 4.40 GHz
Windows 8.1 Full Version 64-bit
NZXT Technologies Computer Case H630 Ultra
MSI Z97 Gaming 7 Motherboard
Logitech Multimedia Speakers Z200
Corsair Vengeance 16 GB (2x8GB) 1600 MHz (PC3 12800)
4 200mm fans
5 140mm fans
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
LG Blu-Ray Optical Drive
Asus 22-inch LED Monitor

If you need to know anything else, please just ask.

With two 780ti's you want 850w minimum.

If you are playing at 1080p on one monitor, this system needs some work as you are wasting almost $1000.

I'll probably end up using multiple monitors in the end since I like to multitask. Also I sometimes like to use programs which use a lot of ram such as sony vegas pro and other editing/recording software.

Its the GPUs I'm talking about. There is no difference between gaming on a 1080p screen with a single 780 and a single 780ti as the 780 is more than powerful enough to max any game. Two 780ti's is a complete waste for anything short of 4k. I urge you to only buy one.

If I get 1 Nvidia GTX 780 Ti with an ACX cooler how many watts would I need for that along with the rest of my build? Also do you think it would be able to run games such as GTA V once that gets on PC, on maximum settings for 1920 x 1080 graphics settings?

YEs a single 780ti is OVERKILL for a single monitor and will max any and all games that are not coded poorly. No problem

For a single 780ti, get 750w.
