Hello guys,

I'm planning to buy an Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB. (Preferably a Zotac AMP edition or perhaps one from MSI Gaming or Asus Strix)
i'm currently using a GTX 650 Ti which works on a Corsair VX450 Power supply which i must say is still working great for me.

I realized that Pascal is a very power efficient architecture and I was wondering whether I can use my existing power supply to fire it up or whether I need an upgrade. (If yes, What is your recommendation)

Below is my PC config: (No Overclocks whatsoever and I dont plan to overclock anything)

Intel Core i5 4440
MSI Z87-G43 Motherboard
GSkill Ripjaws 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 800MHz RAM
WD Black 1TB HDD
Zotac NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti (1GB)
Corsair VX450 Power supply

i dont plan to use multiple HDD.

Thanks in advance.

- Saif.

Thank you. I was concerned about this.
I can use the extra cash to go for a factory OC'd version of the GTX 1060. Perhaps Asus Strix or MSI Gaming offerings.
