IndisciousWrath · Aug 27, 2015

Hello,

system:
Win10
GTX 760 [1,5 gb Vram(dedicated)]
16 GB RAM
i5 4670K

Name: Delta electronics DPS-600WB A 80+ Bronze (according to the internet) (multi rail ?), Input100-127V 50-60hz 10 A ; 200-240V , 50-60hz, 4A ;
Output: +12Va - 16A ;+12Vb-18A;+12Vc-12A;+12Vd-10; +5.08V-16A; +3.3V-15A;+5.08Vsb-2.5V;-12V-0,3A --> Max Power 600W

So,i want to upgrade my GPU from a gtx 760 to a gtx 970 (i know some of you may tell me thats not a good card but i want it cuz there's a small version of it and thats what i need) and so i was thinking if this would be enought of a PSU to run this "beast" without "BOOM" is it possible or "okay" to run it with my PSU ? or Upgrade ?

PS:wasnt paying attention to grammer etc.

hope y'all can help me

I am not familiar with this PSU, but i would recomend you to get something from this list http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html even if it's lower then 600W. I think a good 500W PSU would be enough but you can get 550-600W if you want to be really sure.

Your PSU should be able to run that card. Did the card you get have 2-6pin power connectors, 2-8pins or 1-6 and 1-8 pin connectors?

They would be white and/or black, labeled P10 and P11. Open your case and look. Worst case scenario you will need a 6 pin to 8 pin adapter in order to actually connect the power supply to the card.

Power requirements for your 760 is a system wattage of 500W.

It looks like NVidia's reference GTX760s have 2-6 pin connectors.

Saw this post over at Bleeping. Delta makes good power supplies and the one you have is powerful enough. If it's more than 5-6 years old I'd replace it. If it does not have at least one 6-pin and one 6+2-pin PCIe cable you'll need to replace it. Adapters are not a good idea.

I don't know much about the power supply being used but it should work since the 970 only uses about 25 more watts that 760 on full load.

i bought it last year ^^ and i dont know if i have dem connectors ill look at them in a few minutes and answer it later onwards and thx for answering

soo i just looked and it has 6 and 6+2 so its nkay right ?

Yeah exactly, just verify you have at least 2 6 pin connectors free. I believe they are labeled P10 and P11 for your PSU. Then check out your graphics card. If they have the same pins you are good to go, otherwise you may need to buy a very common and cheap 6 to 8 pin adapter(s) depending on what the graphics card requires.

You have enough power, it is just a matter of having the right connections now.
