Yeah, I guessed around 175w during an unstressed 1080p@60 gaming sesh. But I love to push my gear. I don't buy top-tier components and I don't upgrade very often, so I am constantly pushing my components to the max trying to find that sweet spot in (acceptable) graphics quality, resolution, framerates and temps. And it gets trickier every year as newer and more demanding titles come out. TBH, I'm usually pushing the texture and resolution settings so high that I'll be dipping down to 25-30fps sometimes. I love hearing those fans kick into high gear trying to keep that silicon cool Maybe it's just the motorhead in me. As for the PSU, I've been looking for a Flex psu under $80 that wouldn't have any overdraw shutdowns while pushing full utilization. Lets hope this new one is up to the test.

[QUOTE="aromachi, post: 220049, member: 15738"] Yeah, I guessed around 175w during an unstressed 1080p@60 gaming sesh. But I love to push my gear. I don't buy top-tier components and I don't upgrade very often, so I am constantly pushing my components to the max trying to find that sweet spot in (acceptable) graphics quality, resolution, framerates and temps. And it gets trickier every year as newer and more demanding titles come out. TBH, I'm usually pushing the texture and resolution settings so high that I'll be dipping down to 25-30fps sometimes. I love hearing those fans kick into high gear trying to keep that silicon cool :) Maybe it's just the motorhead in me. As for the PSU, I've been looking for a Flex psu under $80 that wouldn't have any overdraw shutdowns while pushing full utilization. Lets hope this new one is up to the test. [/QUOTE]
