Hi Guys,

I wanted to know if GTX 1080 will work for me ?

Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz (Can't OC as I can find a Z series Mobo 4 my cpu)
RAM: 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology B75M-D3H
PSU: Corsair GS-600

PS: what else do u see while buying gpu regarding compatibility ? And according to RealHardTechX PSU Chart, GTX 1080 only requires a 520w PSU.

 
Solution
That PSU is an older model and wasn't one of Corsair's best. It will probably work fine, but you should consider replacement. 600w is more than enough power requirements are low for the 1080 compared to the older 980
