Nvidia Pascal (GTX 1070, GTX 1080) PSU?

[Gatis Laugalis]

I see news on new generations of Nvidia, but i don't know what PSU requirements Pascal has? But they have same TDP as Maxwell, if im wrong. And what PSU is good pickup for next generations?

you won't go wrong with a good 600W for a single card and a good 800W for 2-SLI in my opinion.

The Pascal chips will probably use less power than Maxwell. So in other words buy a PSU that works on a similar Maxwell setup (970,980, etc) and it will almost certainly work with Pascal.

And tier 2 550W PSU is safe to use a single GPU with I5 6600K?

As jas340 said.
To give you an example: I am using a 6700K @ 4.7 GHz and a GTX970 also overclocked quite a bit. Peak power draw is 320W with Furmark and Prime95 running. You will never reach that kind of power draw in a game.
So you see, even a 550W PSU is pretty much overkill, especially since Pascal will use 14 or 16 nm, which will decrease power consumption quite a bit from the 28 nm GPUs we have today.

Then i'll get 550W, probably, Fractal Design Edison 550W M, and Seasonic 520W?

Also, please keep in mind that a good quality 400W psu is still much better then a 650W psu which has most of its power on the 5/3,3V lines.

I am running a Q9400 with a HD7870 on a 400W psu with 2 12V lines, stable as a rock!
