I have been using a 500W psu for that past year and a half and it has done me fine, but I am wondering if it is okay to get an aftermarket cooler for my processor.
I have
-Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard (I know I should upgrade)
-Gigabyte GTX 960 4GB
-AMD FX 6300(stock cooler)
-2x 7200 SATA HDD
-2x Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB RAM
-3x Corsair AF120LED Fans
(all of this works fine)
and I want to know if I could use an ARCTIC Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 or a Hyper 212 EVO in addition to what is listed above or if I would have any issues with power consumption. I couldn't find any website that could tell me what wattage the fx 6300 stock cooler utilises.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
