GTX 1070 with S12II-520

[ToxicThing]

So I have seen that S12II-520 is enough to run 1070, but I overclocked my i5-3570k to 4.2 ghz and I don't know does cpu use more psu than usual. Will 1070 have enough psu for itself?
I am new so I really don't know how psu works so be kind and let me know
Thanks

A seasonic 520 is still enough mate.
You have no problems at all running a 1070

Thanks for quick reply, so I don't have to worry about my monitor, ram and other things that use psu, neither my cpu?

At that speed the CPU will be topping out at 110w max.
60w for board/ram/drives/fans
200w max for even the most insansely factory overclocked 1070.

Thats less than 400w draw even with GPU & CPU both running 100% (which will rarely happen if ever)

You're absolutely safe.

That would depend on the GTX 1070 that you're getting. Some GTX 1070s require two 8-pin PCIE connectors which your PSU does not have. But most of the 1070s would run great on Seasonic S12II-520

Some S12 520w have 1x6pin and 1x6+2 pin.
And some have 2x6+2pin.
My S12II 520w is having single rail on the label(some have 2 rails on their label) and has 2x6+2pin connectors.
