Can Cooler Master ThunderM 520w run a GTX 760?

[Isser Harel Alombro]

I am about to buy a GTX 760 MSI Twin Frozr OC and I currently have a Coolermaster ThunderM 520w

will this be ok?

Will the power be enough? I was thinking of the wattage of my mobo and processor not to mention also the fans. will the 520 watts do??

Thanks for your reply

And I am about to buy the GTX 760 tomorrow

Max power consumption on the 760 is 170W. Whether your power supply has enough wattage to cover your system or not depends on your other components.

If you do happen to have enough wattage then there should be nothing stopping you from running a 760, your PSU should've shipped with the required cables. (If you bought it new)

It should be fine if you're not overclocking anything. It's not a very high quality PSU but it'll suit your needs just fine.

What do you mean by overclocking? Im sorry I'm still new at this rig things
And my second problem is I still have the AMD Athlon x2. I guess it's a bottleneck. should I buy 1st the GPU or upgrade 1st the CPU?
Btw the GTX 760 only cost about 230 $ here. it's a 2nd hand and still got a warranty

Can I still add some liquid coolers on my rig? and I tried to calculate my wattage on http://www.coolermaster.outervision.com/
It just got me about more or less 370+ watts. and I guess my Power Supply will be good enough

Yes if that wattage estimate was accurate you could still run a custom or closed (AIO) loop.
