Hello all,

I am thinking of getting this PSU to replace my old 500w PSU so I can run my new 1080 which will in turn replace my 970. Would a 650w PSU run a 1080?

Here are my computer specs:

Here is the new graphics card:

And here is my new PSU:

Thanks for reading!

I would recommend getting a better quality PSU than that one you are thinking about.

Look at the Seasonic Focus Plus, Corsair RMX and EVGA G2 or G3.

550W will be plenty if...
Yes

So would you recommend this instead? Its a Corsair RMX:

Yes, that or any of the 4 I listed.
