Hello Everyone!
I have recently built a new PC (I'll put specs later). I am interested in overclocking in the future, but I have never done it before, so I am brand new! The power supply I am running now works fine, however I think I will need more to overclock (I could be wrong!)
Specs:
Mobo: Asus Z170-AR
Processor: Intel i5-6600K
CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 Evo
Ram: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB DDR4
Graphics Card: EVGA GTX 970 FTW
Current PSU: EVGA 500B
With these specs:
1. Do I even need a new PSU, ie: is 500 watts enough?
2. If you do recommend a new PSU, how much wattage/ any recommendations?
Thanks in advance for the help!
