Hi,

I am building a PC forst time on my own, and have some questions regarding a Power Supply.
Here is my components list:
CPU: Intel i7-4970K
MB: Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark II
GPU: Asus Gtx770 DCII OC
Storage: Crucial SSD 128GB and WD Blue HDD 1TB
Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury 2x4Gb
+Cooler Master 212 EVO

Is Corsair RM750 750Wt enough for this system?

rolli59 · Nov 4, 2014

Yes it is but there are better 750 units available! Example http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-hx750

I'll say corsair RM 750 is more than enough for that system.

abdu94 · Nov 4, 2014

so i shouldn't buy RM1000?

rolli59 · Nov 4, 2014

Those 750watt units will run that system with 2 x 770 in SLI! No need for 1000watts.

Enough? 750W is too much for that system (as configured) IMHO.

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-770/specifications - says 600W minimum.

That said, I would go for a PSU with a better build quality than a Corsair RM series, especially if you plan on overclocking.
