its about 5.5years old now im upgrading older rig rightnow the rig has gtx 960 i5 4590 16gb ddr3 ram z97 mobo 1tb wd black hdd and 4rgb fans + cpu cooler and it was running gtx 760 a year back just fine before it died my question is, is this psu good enough to run gtx 1070 gaming Z ??
The psu is FSP Fortron Hyper S 600
its a bit dusty thats all im going to clean it before the new gpu arrives

Solution
It should work fine but I would be very wary. This brand is not well known and the PSU is pretty old. Chances are it's efficiency has dropped a little due to wearing of the internals from heat, but good news is that the 1070 is pretty power efficient compared to a 760 or 960, so it should hold on for a bit longer.

But if you do start hearing weird noises from the PSU, remove it immediately.
