Will my current PSU work with the 1060?

Xeedzz · Aug 30, 2016

Hey I currently have a GTX 660 and I am planning on upgrading to the GTX 1060 around September time. I was wondering with my current specs whether I need to upgrade my PSU and if so any suggestions? Working on a low budget as I need to save for the 1060, thanks.

SPECS:
GPU: EVGA GTX 660 2G OC
CPU: Intel i7-4790
PSU: Extreme Power Plus 500W (Cooler Master)

The GTX 1060 is only a 120 TDP card, your 500 watt is plenty for your system. Only problem is I don't know the quality of your PSU.

You can refer to this if it worries you, but you would be fine with a 400, 450 and a 500 watt. But always check the quality of them : )

I have had this PSU since I first got the PC back in 2012 and I have had no issues with it, I think I will stick with it for now, thanks
