I recently received an Intel i7 CPU as a gift and I'm wondering if it will be compatible with my current setup. One of my concerns is whether my PSU can support the addition.
Current setup (switch out the current CPU for an Intel i7):
HDD: 1TB Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 3.5" SATA III Hard Drive
MOBO: Gigabyte AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gbps USB 3.0 ATX DDR3 1800 AMD Motherboard GA-970A-UD3P
CPU: AMD (Piledriver) FX-6300 3.50GHz (4.10GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 6-Core Processor
MEMORY: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL9 @1.5V UDIMM 240-Pin Memory BLS2CP4G3D1609DS1S00
GFX: Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 4GB GDDR5 DVI-I/DVI-D/HDMI/DP Dual-X with Boost and OC version PCI-Express Graphics Card 11217-04-20G
PSU: EVGA 500W 80PLUS Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Power Supply 100-W1-0500-KR
(DVD: LG Internal UH12NS30 BD-ROM Blu-ray Optical Drive)
Thanks in advance
