I'm planning to build my first gaming PC this summer and I'm about to buy all the components I need but there is still one thing I'm not sure about and it's should I buy a 550w or a 650w PSU? Everywhere I checked there are people that say that 550w would be enough for an overclocked gtx 1070 ti and a i7 processor and other that say that it's better to take a 650w PSU. In my country there is a 30$ difference between the 550w and the 650w PSU so I don't want to just go and buy the 650w version if I can save 30$ and go for the 550w PSU.
Can somebody tell me if the 550w will be enough or is it safer to buy a 650w PSU for my build?
Btw this is my build:
- Case: Phanteks eclipse p400s tg
- GPU: Asus ROG Strix GTX 1070 ti advanced (overclocked)
- CPU: intel i7-8700
- CPU cooler: Cryorig H7
- hard drive: WD Blue 1TB Desktop 7200 RPM
- SSD: samsung 960 EVO 250 GB
- motherboard: gigabyte Z370 aorus gaming 5
- Power supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 550/650 G3
- RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB 2×8GB CL15
- operating system: windows 10
Thanks in advance!
