Hello,

I'm currently on a 460 gtx (on my i7-3770), and long overdue for an vc upgrade. I want this sucker to play Witcher 3. I'm using the Antec EA-500D, and I noticed on the nvidia site that the 460 gtx uses more power than the 970 gtx? So If I use that logic, I'm presuming I'm safe with my current psu or I have no idea what's going on.

Thanks

The GTX 970 is so efficient, it's incredible. Unless you are going for SLI, your power supply will deliver more than enough power for the GTX 970 to operate properly.
