Question Concerning Adequacy of Current PS

[orbster556]

Hey All:

I am planning on upgrading my cpu and mobo and, although I have read a number of article and used a few online calculators, I want to make sure that my current PS will be able to power my new build. My current PS is a PC P&C S75QB 750W; +12V @ 60A. My new rig will include some of the following components:

Intel Core i5 760
ASUS Maximus III
8 GB DDR3-1600
Radeon HD 5870
2 HDD
1 SDD

I am not a huge OC'er and will stick to relatively light increases. As I understand that some PSs lose efficiency over time, my PS is almost 2 years old.

Thanks in advance for any help or insight you might be able to provide.

Regards

Your current PSU is perfectly fine. You could even add a second 5870 if you want.

You'll be fine 60A is a lot of juice

There is practically no single graphics card configuration you could have that would tax this PSU, unless you had an absurd # of hard drives or enough high-speed case fans to levitate your chassis.

:hmm:
That reminded me of that Mythbusters episode where they made a car levitate with firehoses.
