Currently have enermax ENG650AGT 650W
I've done the math and I use 594 watts out of the 650 but I didn't include my water cooler because I couldn't find out how much power it uses from website. It's the corsair hydro h50.
But I'm going to upgrade to cooler master nepton 240m soon so I though I'd check my psu watts and now I'm not sure if I need to get a higher watt psu now

You dont need an upgrade and why do you want to get a liqued cooler for that anyway. The i5 is locked so you can't overclock.

In my bios it says I can. But when that time comes I'll look into it more.
Currently useing 60-70% of my cpu no delays at all so I'm happy

Another note. How to find out how much power a water cooling unit uses if it's not on their website?

Nither could I lol. I'll be getting nepton 240m soon so if the corsair h50 won't use much the nepton shouldn't ither :)
Thanks for help.
Greatly appreciated

Edit: just found out the nepton 240m will use 4.8w so I'll be fine:)
 


You can't overclock the i5 4460. At most you can only make it run at its max turbo.
