Palit gtx 1070 8gb on 550w psu?

Paul Jhon · Nov 5, 2017

I am planning to upgrade my gpu to palit gtx 1070 dual 8gb.. Here is my current specs:

Mobo:gigabyte z170m d3h
Cpu: i5 6600
Gpu

alit gtx 1050 2gb
Ram:8gb
Psu:cougar 80+ 550w

Can a 550w psu handle palit gtx 1070 dual 8gb?
Or is there any problem about my upgrade?

What exact PSU model?

550w is normally plenty of power.
