[SOLVED] i5 8400 + gtx 1060 6g and r5 2600 + rx 580 energy consumption

Solution
Are these rebuilt systems? You don't have to buy nvidia with Intel and amd with amd. Get whatever is the best price. If you are in the u.s you can get a 2600 and 580 8gb or 1060 for much less.

The 2600 sells for 40$+ less than the 8400 because it's been on sale lately. If you are on a budget a 570 8gb comes within 20% fps as the other 2 and sells for only 150$ right now.

The Intel nvidia will use less power, but a 500w should be good on either one. Might want a 550w on the amd build. Just get a good power supply.
