So I am not doing this just for gaming. I want to self teach the best I can on PC hardware without spending too much money. Meaning I want to assemble my own parts and maintain my own computer. Know the in and outs because I have always been conned on services for repairs.

So I purchased one GTX 970 from EVGA. Now I am a bit concerned but my case is a Haff 922 model from cooler master. But my PSU is weak it's a corsair 600cx.

I know the card I bought is power efficient and my psu is fine. I was thinking about two 970s in the future.


I need a new mobo and a new CPU


GTX 660
i5 3570k 3.40ghz
16 gb vengeance ram
asus psz model motherboard intel socket
corsair 600cx
Windows 7 2TB 7200 RPM
Ubuntu 14.04 1 TB 7200 RPM
Blu rat drive LG


So I have done great with my watt supply. Just being cautious is all.

What resolution are you playing at? If its 1920...
What do you need a new mobo and CPU for? Your PC should be shredding games.
I'd buy a cpu cooler and overclock the crap out of that CPU before you decide if you need a new one or not.

As blacksheep said your PSU is fine for your current build
 


your name and pic makes me laugh

especialy when it says you are an expert of sorts
 


Your name would be funny, if it was albinoblacksheep... but... it isn't.
