Hi there!

I am building a budget PC using a Taobao Metalfish S3 case. I have a quiet (when idle) 300w FlexATX Seasonic PSU. Originally I planned to use a GTX 1060 but I came across a deal on a GTX 1070 and went for it. Now I'm not sure if I will be able to safely power everything.

Will a Seasonic SSP-300 SUG 80+ Gold PSU be enough?




System:
Asrock H61M-ITX ~40W
Intel i7 3770 65W TDP
16GB RAM 6W
Gigabyte GTX 1070 Mini 150W TDP
2-3 SSDs ~20W

I will be using a 4-pin ATX12V and 4-pin molex to PCIE 8-pin adapter.

I can undervolt the GPU a bit, unfortunately I can't undervolt the CPU due to the chipset. I have a wall meter to check consumption I just don't want to damage anything if I am missing something!

Damn ok. Thanks for the reply. I also just realised I wrote Silverstone when I meant Seasonic.
