Question Getting a good PSU for RX 570 8G NITRO+ ?!

[el_shekoo7]

Hi ,
i'm going to get rx 570 8g nitro+ and i don't know exactly if it will perform well with my current build, so please help

cpu: i5 3330 3.0 ghz
ram: 8gb
gpu: gt 1030
psu: cooler master 525 ex2
motherboard: asus - h61 m-k

i'm not sure about the power supply especially ? also the parts are very expensive where i live so i think i won't upgrade any of these parts unless it's a must

thank you

Your current PSU has enough wattage but should probably be replaced sometime soon anyway. Never use a PSU >5 years old.
EDIT: Nevermind. Enough wattage but not enough cables. You need an 8-pin and a 6-pin, you only have one.

Look for a CX550 or CX550M.

You current PSU DOESN'T have both PCIE cables needed to power the 570 Nitro.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

1 x 8-pin + 1 x 6-pin
You need a new PSU that one only has ONE 6+2 PCIE.

M/B 20+4 Pin Connector x 1 CPU 4+4 Pin x 1 PCI-E 6+2 Pin x 1 SATA x 6 4 Pin Peripheral x 3 4 Pin Floppy x 1

Or better yet, grab one of the the SEASONIC FOCUS PLUS GOLD PSU, if possible (550 Watts). Your current PSU also lacks PCI-e cables to power the GPU, and that CM model is of very low quality.

Usually if they have that Cooler Master model PSU , the Seasonic is not available in their region or it's super expensive.

thank you all very much,
so if i managed to replace this power supply and get the rx 570 , that would be good ? i mean there's nothing wrong with other parts right ?
also i'm not sure about the available PSUs here right now but mostly old models (maybe like 1-2 years ago but not used) so if there a couple of models recommend ?

should work fine with a good enough psu.
