[Dennis_4]

Kabylake Intel Core i7 7700K 4-Core (8 threads) 4.2Ghz (turbo: 4.5Ghz)
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080 met 8GB GDDR5X
275GB Crucial SSD
1TB HDD
16GB DDR4 memory
MSI Z270 motherboard with SATA3
700 watt 82+ power supply

In theory, it's more than enough.
But not all comes down to total wattage.

What's the Brand/Model from that PSU?

 

[superninja12]

700W IS MEANINGLESS

what model and brand is it

 

[Dennis_4]

coolermaster 700 watt B700 black

 

[superninja12]

the wattage is enough but the build quality and the voltage stability is NOT ok.

upgrade .

What is wrong with it?

It may work, but it's not a very good unit. For the kind of money you are spending on other hardware I highly suggest a better quality PSU. 550w is enough for your system and in the long run you are better off with a high quality 550w PSU rather than a mediocre 700w unit.

82+ tells ya that the parts used were not very efficient ... which hints at not being very high quality.

The B series included sizes from 500 to 700 watts, At 700, there were two:

B Series RS-700-ACAB-D which was made by Enhance Electronics
B Series RS-700-ACAB-B1 (ver. 2) which was made by CWT

I found no reviews from respected sites for either. The CM Cooler Master ACPB does come from CWTs lowest budget platform (GPA)

1. If you already own it, I wouldn't say "dump it", but I would not buy one for a new build

2. I would not buy a 10780 at this point in time... whether ya want the Ti or not, the price of the 1080 will drop in the toilet when the Ti breaks.

3. Make sure to get a decent AIB card and stay away from reference / FE models.

4. Nvidia says:

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/products/10series/geforce-gtx-1080/

Thermal and Power Specs:
94 = Maximum GPU Temperature (in C)
180 W = Graphics Card Power (W)
500 W = Recommended System Power (W)4
8-Pin = Supplementary Power Connector

Guru3D recommends a 600 watter ... more if OC'ing

AIB cards will require more power and more cables. MSI Gaming X for example wants 8 pin + 6 pin and can draw 200 - 250 watts ...add up to 35% for overclocking

If ya gonna spend for 700 watts, might as well get an 850 watter that can handle SLI in future.

Best PSU made to date: $199 SeaSonic PRIME 850W 80+ Titanium

brands dont matter except if its seasonic.

the only good models from cooler master are the V series

 

[bignastyid]

Where are you located? Maybe we can help you find a better PSU in the same price range as the b700.

Brands are meaningless ... especially considering the brands you are most familiar with actually don't make anything but just buy from OEMs and slap their label on it. The model series or better said OEM platform is a reasonable guide to quality.... but even then the 750 and 850 watters may be great and the 650 not so much.

If ya need to go inexpensive the Seasonic S12 / M12 (620 watts) series and EVGA B2 series are very affordable. The B2 750 is oft available for < $50 from NCIX

Seasonic S12 620 ($55) ... The Antec High Current Gamer is the same thing ... both built on Seasonic's GB Bronze platform as is the XFX Core (up to 550) series
