Hey guys,
I am planning to upgrade several parts of my PC and I am not sure if I have to get a new PSU or the current one will handle the new stuff as well.
My current PSU model: HKC SZU-430 LPDR
The future upgrades:
So I will change my motherboard, since I am getting an Intel i5-2400 CPU instead of my AMD Athlon II X4 631.
I am also getting 2x4GB Corsair CMX4GX3M1A1600C9 RAM instead of my current 2x2GB (unknown).
I am also planning a new 1TB 7200RPM HDD to change the now used 500GB 5400RMP HDD.
And I will also get some new fans on my case, now the only fans are the CPU cooler (basic AMD, and i will buy basic Intel) and the GPU's fan. I will buy 3pcs of these Xilence COO-XPF80.R for the case.
And the most important part, the GPU itself. Now I have an AMD Radeon HD 7750 GPU, and I am planning to buy a 2GB model of the RX series, probably RX 550 or RX 560. As I checked the AMD's site it said 450W PSU for this RX model. Is that 20W difference that big, or my 430W should be enough?
I also did a calculation with the two setups:
Current: https://outervision.com/b/mi2tcA
Planned: https://outervision.com/b/XtIXGN
So guys what do you recommend? Can I keep my current PSU or should I upgrade to a bigger one?
Thank you for your help in advance!
Have a great day!
