Friend of mine has a rig that is currently in the shop for diagnostics. They are trying to get him to cough up for a higher wattage PSU, though im pretty confident he doesn't need it.

His specs are:
ASUS Strix gtx 960
i5 650
16gb Corsair Vengeance
MS-7613 (Iona-GL8E)
500w Corsair CX 500M

Mobo and CPU will eventually be upgraded to an 15 4690k and i believe an ASUS Z97 - A

Im pretty sure the 500W psu is enoguh for the current and upgraded rig, but i'd rather not give him info im not 100% on. Are these guys legit or just trying to squeeze more money out of him.? - See more at: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2696159/rig-power-consumption.html#sthash.8ftG4sky.dpuf
