I’m planning to upgrade my 750ti to a 1060 (6GB) and I already own a vs550 power supply and was wondering if it’s enough for it.
CPU i5 4460
1 HDD (1TB)
1 8GB Ram
 
Solution
That's not really an upgrade. As I said, you *can* run the power supply with the GPU, but now that you're using a >$300 GPU, I'd want to move up tiers. What's the best buy depends on where you are; while Newegg has the Corsair CX 550m right now for $35 with rebate, given that you're using a VS, I'm assuming you're not in the US. Don't get me wrong, the VS isn't Fry Everything with Fire bad as PSUs go -- we see a lot of these -- but I think you have a good argument for a quality upgrade unless the budget is just too tight.

You’re right I’m not from the US, I’m currently living in the UAE, and I import most my parts, but one part I found was the EVGA 500B, I read on a few forms that it was a good solution also the budget isn’t too tight, I’d say around 200 AED, 50-60 US dollars, with that budget what is good to get ?
