Topic: 400W PSU and GPU Upgrade Posted: 10 Mar 2019 at 9:22pm |
I have the "400W Digital Storm Performance Series " PSU and it says my only applicable upgrade for my GPU is to a 1070, is this a recommendation or am I really stuck with this until I upgrade my PSU ??
Looking at a 1070 online the recommended PSU is 500W and same for 2060 |

Yep prob time to step up that very small PSU a bit.
Upgrade the old PSU to a new efficient modular 750w or better PSU and you could then use any new NVidia RTX GPU up to a RTX 2080 Ti. Modular power supplies are easy to install...you can just use the power cables you actually need. Less clutter. The dependable Corsair 80% Certified Gold PSU’s have long 7 yr warranties! I think the even more efficient Platinum Certified models have 10 yr warranties! |
