Hello, I was wonder if a GTX 1080 will fit in this build as in wattage. Is my power supply (FSP FSP500-60APN 500W 80+ Bronze) good enough to run this build a couple months until I get a new one? I am not planning to overclock until I'm gonna get a new power supply.

Specs:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz, not overclocked stock speeds.

Memory: G.Skill TridentZ RGB 2x8gGb 3200Mhz CAS 16

Graphics Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Windforce

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z270-x Ultra Gaming

Corsair H100i v2 AIO Liquid cooler

One Sata SSD

One Sata 7.2k HDD

FSP FSP500-60APN 500W 80+ Bronze

2x case fans

91W TDP CPU, 180W TDP for the GPU does not necessitate a 750W PSU @Power94. Although the G2 are quality units.

I'd opt for a quality 550W unit OP.

It'll depend on your location though, as regional available/pricing can be a bit crazy.

my thinking is "better little more then little less" if he try to OC or something else he is better to be prepared for that scenario

Even heavily overclocked, you're not looking anywhere >400W. I mean, if the 750 G2 was a great price, there's no harm ..... but it's complete overkill.

All quality options. The SeaSonic's are getting a little dated, but extremely high quality.

All within budget.
