Is an 860 watt power supply enough to run this? (corsair ax860i)

i have the ax860i

it will run that easily

 

[Akarin]

Yep, it is. AX series are pretty good, and those 860w will handle it fine.

 

[snowctrl]

It will be more than enough - Corsair AX series are some of the very best PSUs available

 

[mcnumpty23]

and a 7 year warranty on the ax860i

not many pc component manufacturers going to give you that

 

[Elijah Michaels]

Is 860watts enough though?

 

[mcnumpty23]

your build should draw 450w max i would think

 

[Akarin]

Is 860watts enough though?

Yes it will be man, no worries, don't be a mad like me, having a 1000w but not even a SLI system 😀

go up to the ax1200i if you want but its about £70 more and not needed
