[SOLVED] Will 500w of power be enough for my gtx 1080?

[Arnoudtje]

Hi all,
My pc has a 1080 and a ryzen 5 2600x. I have no intentions of overclocking.
Would a Be Queit! 500w psu with a 80+ rating of bronze be goood enough?
Thank you

I dont think so it is recommended to have a 600w psu

Actually it should be able to handle it unless you are planning on overclocking but it is recommended by many to upgrade to even a decent 550w

Your PSU ought to be more than sufficient.

Even if it's not a record breaking PSU, it's fine, and even if your 1080 uses 200W under heavy gaming load (or a bit more depending what model you have) a respectable 550W PSU will be fine.
