So i went to the http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/ and entered all my pc specs and the result i got is:
Load Wattage: 598W
Recommended PSU Wattage: 648W
My current PSU is Thermaltake Smart SE 630W. Now i'm not sure if i need to upgrade or not, since my PSU specs are:
Max. Output Capacity: 630W So is this continuous power or not?
Peak Output Capacity: 730W Is this the absolute max wattage PSU can provide in the time of need?
I'm upgrading my GPU from GTX 1080 to 1080Ti, in the quick summary i have:
8600K @ 4.9GHz, aprox. 1.3V
1SSD, 2xHDD
4x4GB of DDR4 3000Mhz memory
1080ti ZOTAC AMP EXTREME (2x8pin)
Z370 mobo Asus STRIX
NZXT Kraken X42 AIO cpu cooler
3x Case fans-120MM
Further research that i did suggests that GPU itself draws around 320W.
I'm kinda short of money atm since i upgraded, so is PSU upgrade necessary or am i as its often the case with PSUs, "just fine"?
Of course, just to add, i'm talking here that wanna be absolutely 100% sure about my PSU, i don't even wanna think if it's powerful enough or not, i don't wanna be on the egde.
Few more details that might help: I'm using 1440p 144Hz monitor so the gpu will be utlized 100%. My current PSU is about 3years old.
Thanks.
