Dear Community,
I was reading over some of the tier power supply posts and I got scared. I currently use the below power supply and I'm not sure if it's safe to use with my Intel I5 6500 processor + GTX 970 graphics card. I've had that Thermaltake 600w power supply for about five + years now. It used to power my Intel core 2 duo and Phenom II x4, along with gt 9500, gtx 260, hd 4870 all way up to a hd 6950. Most reviews about my unit reviewed old components like core 2 duo, the AMD phenom II so I'm not sure if it's still safe for my current setup. So far, It still works.
Can anyone advise if I should change it out for a newer model?
