Does my 460w work with gtx 1060?

[jonah297]

Is a rs-460w-psap-i3 good enough for a EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

the PSU has 325W on the 12V rail, the card will need 120W of that, depending on the draw of the rest of the components in the system you may be pushing it.

that is not the best PSU and I suggest a replacement as soon as you can afford it, but unless you have a real power hog of a system with a 220W draw for the CPU you should be fine until you can replace it

My strong answer is a NO.
That PSU is from 2010
If you wanna good quality PSU get an Seasonic G 520II
Corsair CX 2017?

The Elite series were very poor quality units. Imho that psu should be replaced asap.

My cpu’s tdp is only 69w. Should i get a better psu or the gpu. Btw im on a really tight budget so this is very important.

The PSU is the life blood of the system, when a poor quality unit like what you have fails it could take out some to all of the other components with it. A decent PSu will cost less than a GTX 1060 and a whole lot less than a whole new system. So PSU now then the GPU.
