HungryHamster Oct 20, 2022 34 3 35 Nov 3, 2022 #1 I have an ASUS ROG Thor P2 1000w platinum power supply. Will it be enough with this build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6VvDTn I will not be doing any overclocking except with XMP on the RAM. I'll be using the 16-pin to 4 x 8-pin PCIe cable from CableMod.

If you get a 1KW unit, you're relegated to delivering 450W to the GPU.
