Antec Earthwatts 650 keep it?

[jjj807]

I am upgrading from an Athlon quadcore PC with a Radeon 6950 videocard to an I5 haswell system with the new videocard being a Evga 760 card. Can i carry over the Earthwatts 650 watt psu? Or do i need more power?


Thanks

Yes, keep it. A GTX 760 consumes the same amount of power as a 6950, and the power supply should be able to handle two of them anyway, depending on age.

Yup, keep that Earthwatts.

650W will be lots of power for that Haswell system. That I5 should consume less power than the Athlon quad core.
