Im wanting to get the i5 7600k, and a gtx 1070 msi gaming
will this psu be sufficient?
if not want is a good psu? im also planning on sli in the future(maybe end of year or next year or so)
my budget would be less than 120 cad

Thanks a bunch!
Cheers!

650W would be enough, but you'd be cutting it quite close. I'd suggest you get Supernova G3 if you want to get a 650W unit. The G1 PSU is not as good as G2 or G3.

That's a decent 500W unit, and will be sufficient for one GTX 1070 and i5 7600k.

If you want to do SLI, you need to get a bigger PSU though. While 650W would be enough, I would err on the side of caution and get a quality Seasonic M12ii or EVGA Supernova G2 750W .

would a EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G1 be sufficient for a gtx 1070 sli, and in i5 6600k overclocked to 4.3 ghz?(i grabbed an i5 6600k for 75 bucks yesterday lol) but i wouldnt get a second 1070 till the end of the year so that gives me 6-8 months
