Hi all,
I have chosen the option of a Corsair power supply to add to my current build which I've listed below.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KXK2KX
I was going to choose the CorsairRM850 in white, as there is no RM850x currently around, but have seen a deal for a more powerful power supply.
The Black Friday ongoing deal for £134.99 for the Corsair RM1000x SHIFT is what I was looking at.
Would there be any pros/cons to getting the 1000x with the extra wattage if it means spending an extra £4.99 which I'm fine with doing. I don't particurarly need that much headroom but for £5 extra, would this not just be futureproofing if I upgrade my system later on? I think using a 1000W power supply could cause issues or not draw equal performance potentially?
P.s - I'm planning to upgrade GPU to most likely a 4070-S sometime next year.
Thanks,
