Hello guys so I recently build myself a new gaming PC and still have no graphics card.(I was going to buy 760 but luckily I didnt so now I can buy the new 970)Anyway my psu is:
CORSAIR VS650 WATT
its 650w,it has 2x6+2 pin connectors and as it says on the box up to 85% efficiency
I just really dont want to destroy the new graphics card Im going to buy so I need a bit help here guys.Im in tight budget so If its not completely necessary I would like not to buy a new psu.
Thanks in advance.
BTW)This supply seems pretty nice,its quiet and I havent experienced any errors or something like that...)
 
Solution
The 900 series cards have surprisingly low TDPs for their GPU muscle. As i7Baby stated, it should work. With a great PSU, you could probably run it off a 500w with the right system.
