Hello all,
I plan on getting a GTX 970 at some point and I am aware that my current PSU, a discontinued coolermaster, has a maximum power output of 500W. The minimum requirement of the 970 is also 500W.
I don't want to intentionally overclock, though I'm not sure if playing games on highest settings counts as that.
I would like some expert recommendations on what PSU I should be getting to match this card.
My current build:
Mboard - Asus PB75-M
Cooler - Regular case fans, one in front one in back.
cpu - Intel Core i7 3770 @3.4GHz
Memory - 2 X 4 GB, not sure of brand
Storage - 1TB HDD, not sure of brand
GPU - GTX 970 (to replace my GTX 650)
PSU - Coolermaster 500W, discontinued.
Thanks in advance for any help!
