Hi everyone!
I´d like to ask you for your advice for buying the right PSU for my spec.
The system is heavily meant for 3d programs. Simulation calculations, rendering, playing animations in viewport etc.

Specs:
Asus Z170-A Mainboard Socket 1151 (ATX, Intel Z170, 4x DDR4-Memory, USB 3.1, M.2 )

Intel Core i7-7700K 4,20GHz Boxed CPU

Noctua NH-D9L, Premium CPU Cooler mit NF-A9 92mm

Asus Turbo GeForce GTX1070-8G Gaming GPU (Nvidia, PCIe 3.0, 8GB DDR5x Memory, HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort)

Crucial Ballistix Sport LT BLS2K8G4D240FSB Desktop Gaming Memory Kit (2400 MHz, DDR4, DRAM, 16GB (8GB x4), CL16)

Samsung 960 EVO MZ-V6E250BW Intern Solid State Drive (250GB)

Samsung S22D300H 54,61 cm (22 Zoll) PC-Monitor (VGA, HDMI, 5ms, 1920 x 1080 Pixel)

Just ask me , if more info is needed.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you both for the quick responds!
Could i ask you for specific links? I got really confused when looking myself. Especially because of the different prices with same power data.

@dauntless780
Can you tell me, why to upgrade the GPU?

Indeed i thought of upgrading the GPU, but for the purpose of rendering with 3d programs. Even upgrading the rest of my specs in the near future.
Should i go for the more powerful PSU? Or putting it this way, with a high-end GPU and CPU, which PSU should i get?

Wow thats bad. Could it be responsible for, lets say, occasional system crashes? Blue screens while rendering or even doing less heavy multimedia stuff etc.?

Please don´t get me wrong, i didn´t mean the product itself. I was refering to the possibility, that they could send me a defect piece and what to do in that case. But if you say don´t worry, then all good (y)
