500W PSU for i5 4460 and GTX 960

[chamko]

Hi guys, please help me. Is there any risk of damageing the components if I would be using my 500W enermax naxn enp500agt with the GTX 960 ? CPU (i5 4460) with my gtx 750ti is working fine so far but i am afraid of 960 because it have about 100% bigger TDP. Thank you.

Enermax is a good brand. It has like 410 watts on 12v rail. Your system with the gtx 960 , is never going to get over 300 watts , so you are going to be fine

It isn't Haswell compatible , you may have to disable sleep states in the BIOS.

They changed that recently because this was their previous list.
And I doubt it
is , like EVGA claims their B 500w and 600w are but they don't pass.

I would go with something of higher quality.

so if I understand it, PSU may cause a problem of a functionality of CPU (while its haswell) not GPU ?
