On a full size rig my answer would be no, with a 600 watt recommended by myself. For the Aura, it is a smaller, less fans, mini mobo, etc setup and DS does test it for the 450Watt Gold, up to a gtx 1080. The gtx 1080 tdp is only 180 watts and a 500 watt is recommended. The Gold designation does give it more latitude to be pushed if needed.
This is when a trust in DS and their testing comes into play. I trust it.  |
