A good PSU is such an important part of putting together a new gaming rig. Powering the entire machine, you need something with enough power draw to run that beefy graphics card and CPU, whilst being able to fit inside your case.
If you are worried that your current PC can't handle the next major line of graphics cards, Corsair has you covered. Corsair says its «award-winning range of power supplies will fully support the highly-anticipated next generation of graphics cards».
Following this up, it says that the latest graphics card requirement of 12v-2x6 GPU power connector is expected to stay the same for the next generation of GPUs.
The same press release also says it anticipates rigs will take anywhere from 750 W up to 1500 W to run all the components within them.
To reach that upper wattage, you would need a high-end graphics card, CPU, and more, but this is still indicative of a broader trend of increased power for the next generation.
