GTX 1070 psu

[skylordp]

I have a gtx 760 and a cx600m psu
On the nvidia website the 1070 requires 150W and 760 requires 170W.
Does this mean my psu will be alright or will i have to upgrade

Existing PSU is okay.

GeForce recommends minimum 500w PSU for the GTX 760 and their recommendations are always at the top end of what is actually required in practice for a single card on the average system.

Hmm... If the site states that you need less power, why do you have to worry? Sorry, I couldn't figure that out :lol:.

people are saying the quality of the cx series is bad and shouldn't be used with anything high end.

Don't listen to them... They have no idea that the 1070 consumes less power than 960. CX series PSUs are not that bad, again, don't listen to them.
