System Power Requirement

[babribeiro]

HI guys, i would like you to confirm, if possible the following.:

I would like to kown if the PSU that i have (Corsair CX430M) if enought for the following build:

CPU: i5-4690 Haswell
Board: Asrock H97 Pro4
RAM: Crucial DDR3 1600 8GB(4Gx2) CL8
Graphic Card: MSI GTX 960 GAMING 2G 1216-1279(OC Mode)
HDD: 2

nothing much else

According to the calculators at:

http://www.coolermaster.outervision.com/
it should be sufficient..

If not suficient, i was considering

Seasonic 620W M12II-620

Note: No OC, No SLI (for a year at least), just might add a couple of other harddisks...


Thanks in advance

Upgrading to a Seasonic 620W M12II-620 is a very good option if you intend to upgrade any of the components in the future. I would say go with the Seasonic 620W M12II-620 which is also very good when compared to your current PSU.

But that PSU would work. No problem with that. Better a higher wattage PSU. Thats all I meant.

PSU that you have now is enough for System with GTX 960 if you wont OC.

But if you decide to upgrade it this one is the best quality cheap PSU you can get right now http://pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-hcg620m

or look here for other good models if you will upgrade in the future (Tier 1 and 2 are good)

Thanks for the help guys.

I've decided I will just keep the one I have now since it is enough for the present requirements. In in the future if I need I will get a new PSU. Also because at that time there might have new versions of them.
