What power supply?

PC Gamer 2000 · Sep 15, 2016

Hi I was wondering what power supply would I need if I'm getting an msi x99 godlike carbon motherboard, Intel core i7 6950x, 2 titan x pascals,
32gb of corsair dominator platinum ram, and a 2 tb ssd

To answer the question, that rig could pull around 800W max (theoretically) at stock speeds.

If you were to OC your CPU &/or GPU's you could drive the power requirements up a decent quantity.

I'd say a minimum 1000W, but ideally something in the 1200W range. Either way, a quality PSU is a must.

Given the cost of those components,
SuperNOVA P2 1200W

Or FSP AURUM PT1200

Would be quality options. Both Platinum rated, quality PSUs, and fully modular.

Of course, it's worth asking what you're building this rig for/what you intend to achieve....

For a good reference go here.

850W is recommended , 1000w would be more than enough.
