May 31, 20179 yr I'm still running my 4770 i7 rig with its original 600w power supply. When i bought the rig it had a 780Ti GPU which I've subsequently upgraded to a 980Ti. With P3Dv4 i'd like to upgrade the GPU to a 1080Ti. Will the PSU (600w) be sufficient for that? thanks
May 31, 20179 yr Most surely yes. Power requirements should be lower than with the 980Ti.

May 31, 20179 yr I just put a 1080Ti in my rig and WOW, what a difference. Well worth the upgrade for me. Bob Robert Yunque PilotEdge Ratings = CAT-11 (2016-09-13) I-11 (2016-10-23) V-3 (2016-08-01)
May 31, 20179 yr Ordered a 1080Ti yesterday, too. Nvidia should be thankful to Lockheed Martin.

May 31, 20179 yr Hi Folks, Just been spec'ing a new system today and had the same concern on power supplies - answers my question as well - New Egg had EVGA's on sale - both 750 and 850 at same price - think I'll go with 850 just to be safe... So thanks - too... Regards, Scott
June 7, 20178 yr Just FYI: I have a 1080ti and a overclocked i7 6700K (2 Sata SSDs, one M.2 SSD, AiO watercooling, 4 fans, 2 USB 3.0 devices, around 4 USB 2.0 devices) and my measurement unit on the wall shows around 450W on the wall while running 3D Mark. I am using a 550W PSU right now and have no problems.
July 6, 20178 yr Author So I pulled the trigger on a purchase today ASUS GTX1080TI-FE Founders Edition GF GTX 1080 Ti 11 GB I hope its worth it, although I can still get £300 for my 980Ti on Ebay
July 6, 20178 yr FYI: Under load in P3D I had some blackscreens with "Asus surge protection triggered". So I bought a 850w PSU from beQuiet! and the problem is gone. The 550w was a Seasonic.

July 7, 20178 yr If you're in the market for a new PSU, take a look at the EVGA SuperNOVA G2 850W. Very well reviewed - see http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=377 and with twice the warranty (10 years!) of the beQuiet PSU at a similar price. Even when the fan switches on it's almost completely silent. Highly recommended. i7-14700k | Asus ROG STRIX Z790-F Gaming WIFI | 32GB DDR5 RAM | MSI RTX 4080 Super | WD Black SN850X 1TB & 2TB | Corsair HX1000i ATX3.0 | MSI MAG401QR 40" monitor | Win 11 Pro 64-bit | Meta Quest 3
