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.

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.
