[SOLVED] High recommendation for RTX 2070 S

[erichoooop]

Why is the recommendations for RTX 2070 S 650 watts when you can run it at 600 watts?

That's just a vendor recommendation. The power draw depends on type of components used on any PC, and each system is different.

The GPU is also having a max TDP value of 215 W. Nvidia recommends just to be on a safer side.

Can I use a 600W PSU to run the 2070 S?

Yes you can, but this also depends on the make and Model number of the PSU. Which power supply do you have ?

 

[erichoooop]

standard 600watts 80 plus gold high-efficient power supply

 

[Metal Messiah.]

What do you mean by "standard' ? There has to be some brand name and Label on the PSU.

Evga BQ

 

[Metal Messiah.]

Okay. That BQ is a BRONZE certified model though, not gold. But nonetheless you should be OK.
