    2070 Super with 600w psu

    Hi, I have a problem buying a video card. I have a r5 3600 and I would like to install a gigabyte gaming oc 2070 super to it but there are doubts about my chieftec smart 600w power supply. Is it possible to combine them?

          You need a new PSU, the Chieftec Smart series PSUs were first released more than nine years ago and all but one in the series came with no efficiency rating and only had a one year warranty period.

          Get yourself a Gold efficiency rated 650W PSU from a proven brand if you wish to power a RTX 2070 SUPER video card, use the links in my sigs for help with choosing a PSU and ask here if you want us to take a look at any potential purchase.
