Solution Jdogz427 Dec 28, 2014 I would go with 850 watt to give headroom http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-power-supply-rs850afbag1us (Coolermaster V series) http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cmpsu850hx (Corsair HX series) http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-x850 (Seasonic X series) These are all good 80+ gold choices

mrminivee Honorable Mar 20, 2013 32 0 10,560 Dec 28, 2014 #2 That could be on the edge for 970 SLI, You could get an 850W to be safe Upvote 0 Downvote

You only upgrade if you want to. http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/67652-nvidia-gtx-970-sli-performance-review-4.html Upvote 0 Downvote
