New to all the hardware
Bough a new computer all pre build and I want to add that^ graphic card the 1060 on my Dell Xps 8900 with all the stock items with a 460 watts PSU..if I were to overclock it will my PSU be able to withstand the power consumption
So u don't have to look it up
i7 6700 non k
2 ddr4 8gb ram
I have made no changes all stock
The Video card takes up to 120 watts
Some sites are saying 500 watts PSU recommended
Will my 460 watt PSU be enough???( With overclock)

If you're going to get a new PSU anyway, something like the Seasonic S12II series, EVGA Supernova G2/3 series or CM G series.
The EVGA Supernova G3 550W would be fine for you :)
