Is a evga g1 650w gold psu good enough for a msi gaming x gtx 1070 with the other components as well?

H170 PRO MOBO
GTX 1070

Yes it's plenty, but get a better quality PSU: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/nB3RsY/seasonic-power-supply-s12ii620bronze

That will be exceed my budget. Probs buy a new psu in the next few years but not now

What are you talking about? It's cheaper than the EVGA you listed.
But if you want something even cheaper, here you go: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/2tckcf/xfx-power-supply-xfxts550w
And yes, 550W is also plenty for your config. It'll never pull more than 350W, even if you overclock the GPU heavily.

the g1 is actually on par if not better than the seasonic you linked.

How do you figure? The NEX G EVGAs are tier three in that list, while the seasonic and XFX are tier 2.

I have already bought the evga psu. It been 5 months

your psu will work perfectly with the 1070, enjoy!

A gtx 1080 can run on a 500w PSU, you're fine 110%

 

[Lodocarbo]

I have myself a 650w gold 80+ with a gtx1080 on it, it is more than enough

 

[Vikerules]

people often REALLY get off from telling people to get overkill power supplies, why? i dont know... I mean a decent bronze 600w from a respectable company is good enough

Actually, if there's no plan to SLI/CF, the 550W XFX TS is my go-to recommendation. Any non-2011 single GPU config will not pull over 450W, even with a heavy CPU overclock

The Supernova GS is tier one in the list. Dont listen to that guy XD
