Capstone 650 - enough for 1070 sli?

[d8lock]

I know they aren't out yet, but will a Rosewill Capstone 650 be enough for 1070 sli on a z77 with 3770k? Also, would CF 480 also work? I'm not that knowledgeable about PSUs, so any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Each 1070 stock is probably around 160 watts, plus 80 watts for the CPU and 50 watts for everything else. That leaves you at 450 watts for a stock system. I would say it can handle some moderate overclocking, don't do anything with voltage increases.

480s are not out yet, and not enough information on them to say. It is likely they will be in the ballpark of the 1070 power consumption-wise, but that's just speculation. Given its target market, I would say the power consumption should be even lower to be competitive.

I see. I've got a corsair 850 lying around but the fan is unbearable. Looks like I'll stay at stock until I upgrade. Thanks!
