hey guys
how are you all ?

i am going to by a Gigabyte 670GTX and i have an Aerocool +80 bronze 600W PSU

is that enough ? because i barely have the money for the GPU so is it enough ? i've read that it'll run perfectly with 600W

my set up :

i5 2500k at stock clocks
500gb WD blue
1600 corsair 8gb ram
Asus P8Z68 Deluxe
560TI (for now only going to be replaced with 670 hopefully)

thanks

A good 600w PSU should be able to handle the GTX 670 (plus overclocking) without problems, but don't try SLI on it. Theoretically, you could go a little lower in wattage, but then overclocking would be more dangerous. Considering that you have the i5-2500K, I have to assume that overclocking is a goal of some sort.

no not overclocking anything i got the K version in case i need the OC i always like to be ready for anything so a couple of $s wouldn't harm considering that i5 2500 and 2500K are both cheap

and i am not overclocking my gpu

i dont like to overclock unless i have a good reason to do it

thanks !

In that case, you should shouldn't have problems from insufficient PSU wattage.

You're welcome.
