PSU for 1070, 650 or 750watt

wilkmorbey · Aug 6, 2016

Am choosing between the 650 or 750 watt EVGA G2 power supply. Don't know which one to get...
My build is http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/LxkhgLand a 1070 FTW.

Anyone got any recommendations, would probably be overclocking GPU too

650w is more than you need. plenty for a 1070 and some

The 750watt is only £14 more tho, is it worth it??

If you already have the 750 G2 keep it great choice , I also love the RMX series from Corsair.

I'll mix the two suggestions above.
RMx 650 is more than you ever going to need with this card under any overclock

Thanks for that suggestion but I have custom cables for the G2 power supply, I have an 850 watt EVGA GS power supply at the moment but the cables don't fit so changing to the G2, but wondering which watt would be best

Dark Lord of Tech · Aug 7, 2016

If you ever wanted to SLI 1070's the 750w would be the ticket.

You can't lose with your two choices Super Flower makes great power supplies for EVGA.

n0ns3ns3 · Aug 7, 2016

well, for a single card 650 is the way to go.
and for the SLI, 750 will be working at high % of capacity.
so even though it's "just 14 euro", why to waste them

wilkmorbey · Aug 7, 2016

Thanks for all responses, will get the 650 watt!

Dark Lord of Tech · Aug 7, 2016

I always get extra power , my personal preference.
