[SOLVED] Change PSU if I change CPU

[Diosa_]

Hello all , I am going to upgrade from my i5-7400 to an i7-10700. They have the same TDP(65W) but i was wondering if I need to change the PSU as well. I own a Corsair CS550M
Thanks in advance.

This depends on rest of your pc components - mainly graphics card.

BTW - upgrade from i5-7400 to i7-10700 will require a new motherboard. You know that, right?

Yes I am aware. Graphics card is an MSI GTX 1660 Super.

Then your current PSU is fine.
