How Many Watts for 4770k and 750 TI ?

[branrican]

I was wondering how much power I'd be using if I was to use an i7 4770k and a GTX 750 TI 2GB. Will a 430w PSU be fine, or will I need something a bit better? Thanks for any help.

I wouldn't use a 430w psu because this aren't the only components you are going to use. Also you are going to have to deal with a lot of pressure making sure that the psu number of watts is enough. I would recommend a solid 650W if you are not going to SLI. Don't forget to choose for the best answer. Glad I could help.

550w, eg the XFX PRO550 would be fine, the 750 Ti is low powered by design anyway, do you plan to OC your CPU?

A Corsair CX430 should be enough since the GPU is very low-powered.

No, I do not plan to OC. So the 550w would be best then?

For your current setup, yes.
