650W big enough for this build

[Nightz]

I7 7700k and a gtx 1060 3gb is a 650w psu big enough?

[tacoshy]

Yes that rig won't even pull 350W.

Will it be able to run a 1080 ? Cheers for the quick response

I have 650 on a 1080TI

[Nightz]

Ok cheers I thought 1080tis took like 600w

No 1080 Ti can use with a power shunt on 2x8 pins maximum 375W. However my Rig with 1080 Ti and 7700K @5.2GHz has a maximum power draw of below 450W.

PS: it's not the wattage you should care for but the build quality!

Build quality =/= efficiency rating

As I understand, altough Im far from a computer wizard the newer GPU and CPUs really dont use that much Watt.

I have 2 x 1080ti's and an i7 8700K @ 5.0Ghz 8 case fans, loads of RGB NZXT Hue +, and run all that off a Corsair 850w psu..

Good choice. The RM series are great PSUs.

As Omega said. It's a great PSU, and 650W is pretty big for future upgrades, such as cards like 1080/1080 Tis, and if you're going to overclock your components.

I run a 7870 with the same video card on an Antec 380 watt unit :)

hmm have to say, depending on your clocks on your cards, you may be getting close to needing a bigger psu, if for nothing else than efficiency, i know my 7900x pulls alot more power than an 8700k, but i am pulling upto 800-900w from the wall so 700-800w actual used with a pair of shunt modded 1080ti's with my 7900x, if you are going sli, you are actually one of the few who should look at the 1000w psu's for efficiency, might want to spend a tenner on a power meter to see how close you are, i used to run an 850w but upgraded to a 1300 when i upgraded my cpu.

Just get a quality Gold Certified PSU in the 650W range and it'll be fine for any config you throw at it with regards to using Single CPU + Single GPU
