Hey there,

I'm gonna be building my brother a budget PC for schoolwork and light gaming. Will the Corsair VS450 (450W) provide enough power for the following components:


  • Intel Pentium G3258
    ASUS H81M-PLUS
    WD Blue 1000GB
    Kingston HyperX Fury Blue 8GB 1600MHz
    MSI GTX 650ti

Thanks in advance :)
 
Solution
The GPU has a 110W TDP, the CPU has a 53W TDP. So the system would barely be able to pull over 200W. The 450W power supply is plenty, though the Corsair VS isn't great quality.
450W is enough but i wouldn't recommend a corsair vs power supply. Here is a PSU which will provide the same wattage, is higher quality and around the same price:
XFX TS Series 430 W Full Wired Power Supply Unit

You can't go wrong with xfx or seasonic PSUs in general
