I'm building a new rig this summer and i'm planning on getting a gtx 1070 for it, but the 970 I have now is still good and I don't want it going to waste. I've heard pretty good things about adding a dedicated physx card so I'm probably going to just use the 970 as one.

I was wondering if a 750 watt psu like this one is enough to run those.

If not could you guys suggest something else?

Thanks in advance!

Using the GTX 970 as a PhysX card is a complete waste, you really only need like a GT 730 or 740 to run PhysX. And even in the most demanding games that utilize PhysX you "might" get a 5-7 FPS increase at best. On top of that your just using more power and dumping unneeded hot air into your case. Your better off just selling your 970 when you get your 1070.
