Is this PSU good for overclocking both the CPU and GPU?

Arnav Bhatt · Aug 12, 2015

Hey all,
Hypothetically, would the XFX TS 750W 80+ Gold be enough to overclock the Core i5-4690K (decided on a Cooler Master Seidon 120V to cool that bad boy down) and an MSI GeForce GTX 970? I'm wary of buying a sub-par PSU from browsing the posts here and would love some peace of mind about the power supply that I'm choosing. Thanks!

Yah thats a good psu and 750watts is more than enough, a quality 550watt psu would be enough.

Yes, it definitely can deliver enough power for your needs.
Quality of SeaSonic, Plenty of power : Max +12V Output Current (A) : 62 .

Here's our thinking on PSUs http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

XFX are made by Seasonic. They are excellent PSUs. The Gold TS is Tier 1 which is as good as it gets. (I use a 550W Gold TS)

As has been suggested above, you could use a lower wattage PSU for system you have.

I'm running an overclocked 4690K (up to 4.8Ghz) and a GTX970 on my XFX TS 550W Gold.

Thanks everybody! I'll switch to the XFX 550W for my build
