My current build uses 400 but I have a 750 watt psu. I know its overkill but im putting beter cpu's and gpu's in it later so I will need it later on. Otherwise I would've gotten 450 watt. Also check the certificate. |

i have a pentium 60w with a 970 and 3 hdd on a 430w psu and it runs stable |

I win! ~400w usage, 1.2kw PSU. |
| Bisjac:
Its not just about wattage. Prebuilds usually cone with horsestuff power supplies that are inefficient and prone to crap out. |

oh also, i get to help people with troubleshooting tech and setting up their systems at a big school conference this coming year. it's basically a big conference where elementary/middle/high schools in the EAST initiative program come to show off the tech-driven projects they've done, so i'm pretty stoked to be able to get hands-on with some of the tech. last year there were schools working with game development, a lot of 3D printing (someone printed a functioning prosthetic hand that they designed), a lot of VR demos, etc etc. and i'll get a snazzy vest thing to let people know that i'm important |
