I currently have a Thermaltake true power 600watt psu, is that enough? What is the best recommendation?

Thanks in advance.

I would want an 850 watt to be on the safe side.

Yes a 600W psu is fine.
500W is the recommended psu for a system with a 6950.

 

[hunter315]

For a single 6950 that 600W unit is sufficient.

As you can see opinions vary...

You can accurately determine exactly what power your PC requires for it's current of future config and determine if your current PSU is sufficient and reliable for the application by using the link below. No guessing is required, just accurate, objective electrical watts and 12v rail amps. to help you make an informed decision.

Thanks everyone for your opinion. According to the calculation it recommended me a 517watt psu.

So the current psu should be ok, i really dont want to spend any more money on another component, but if any thinks i should get another let me know.

Thanks everyone.
