Hello everyone!
I recently installed a Windforce GTX 770, and I see that it takes up quite a bit of my power wattage. I am running a i5 3770k not overclocked at the momment. Since I put the GPU in, the PC feels like it's slower. I was just wondering if PSU ussage changes the speed and or performance of the PC. Games still run well graphics wise, but when it comes to surfing the web and other normal stuff, the computer feels a little slower. Also the PSU is a Corsair CX600. And I only have one HDD and nothing else taking power. Also, we wil be wanting to overclock the CPU and probably the GPU, we will obviously need to get a higher wattage PSU, I just want to know how high I should go. As of now I'm thinking about getting an 850w Gamer Series from corsair. I'm getting it really cheap so money isn't the problem. And I think it's probably the most future proof way to go. But either way I would like a second opinion.
Thanks for taking the time to read this! Hope you can help!
