Corsair CX600 for i5-4570?

[Miyamoto]

Hello, I'm building a PC but I dont want to buy a graphic card for now, I would use the included in the i5. I plan to get the card in the future (maybe 1 year). Is there any problem if I use the Corsair CX600 PSU before installing the card? Should I get another PSU while I use the i5?

The components are:

i5-4570
ASROCK B85M Pro4
2 x 4GB 1600 RAM
1 SSD
1 HDD
1 DVD


Thank you.

No, there is no problem in doing that. All you have to do is insert your GPU in the future and install the driver and such.

I would get a HASWELL compatible PSU.

The next haswell compatible PSU where Im purchasing the pieces is 23€ more expensive. Corsair page says that CX600 is "likelly compatible". Another option is the AeroCool Templarius Imperator 650W which I have read to fail with a 660GTX, so it may be a worse option.

I don't think it's worth it to change to a haswell compatible.

Both are poor but go with the CX600 .
