First Time PSU HELP !!!

[zikmir]

Hi every one!
Its my first ever build and i need some help! I have the Gigabyte ga-970a-d3 paired with GTX770.

I'm hoping to power this baby up with the Corsair CX600 Bronze. It says it has a +12v rail @46A. Now when i see the connectors, the 8 pin- goes to my Mobo, the big 24 pin- also to my Mobo. all i am left is with two pcie connectors. One is 6 pin, and the other is 6+2 pin. Are these the one that i should throw in my GPU?

The 770 requires atleast 40A with one 8 pin and one 6 pin.

I'am not sure which is the 12v rail on my psu that throws up 46A ! I know this might be a silly question, but i'm really us sure since it's my first built and i dont want to hurt my baby hahah!

Please any suggestions would be helpful!

And yes i also clocked my fx-6100 @ 4.3Ghz on the previous psu. My ram is Corsair Vengeance @ 1866.

The 2 pci-e go into your 770. The card does NOT require 40A (no video card in existence uses that much), that figure is for the whole system.

The GTX 770 CANNOT go over 265 watts at the maximum; good luck reaching that max without Furmark. 265watts/12volts=22.083 amps. And remember, it's not at the wall consumption that matters, but rather how much gets through to the components.

You're fine. That PSU is even overkill for your setup
