Question How many watts do i need ?

[4amdave]

Hello, i need help with how many watts my psu should be. I would like a Corsair one so if someone can tell me the watts and the specific model i should buy. I’m confused on the models i don’t understand what the difference is.

My specs:

Cpu: i7-8700k
Gpu: Asus strix 2080
Mobo: Asus z390 Maximus xi hero
Ram: 16gb vengeance rgb
Cooler: h100i rgb
Storage: Samsung 500gb ssd / 2 tb hdd
Case: Corsair 570x

For your system I would go with 650 watt PSU.

The models more or less mean quality, for instance their VS is absolute junk and their CX/CXM are ok budget ones for low power gaming systems. For your system I would get a Corsair RMx which are their silent models or their TXm.

Another good couple options from other brands would be a EVGA G3 or a Seasonic FOCUS Gold
