# How many watts does your PC power supply need?

How to size your PSU: a wattage table by GPU class, 80 Plus ratings, and current prices at Kosovo stores.

Prices come from the current specialist-store catalog. Confirm stock on the retailer page before buying.

Written by Redaksia e pjespjes.com · Updated Sep 02, 2026

## How to estimate wattage

The practical rule: add the CPU's and GPU's TDP, add ~100 W for the rest, then 20–30% headroom. For a 65 W CPU with a 200 W GPU: 65 + 200 + 100 = 365 W, plus 30% → 475 W, so a comfortable 550 W.

A PSU running at 50–70% load is quieter, cooler, and more reliable. Do not buy a PSU at the exact number — leave room for future upgrades.

## 80 Plus and quality

80 Plus is an efficiency certification (Bronze, Gold, Platinum). Gold is the sweet spot for most people; do not pay extra for Platinum on a gaming PC.

Internal quality matters more than the sticker: choose known brands with 5+ year warranties. A cheap, bad PSU can damage other parts — this is not the part to save on.

## Advice for Kosovo

Verify the PSU you want has the right cables for your GPU (PCIe 8-pin or 12VHPWR for the new NVIDIA cards) and use the pjespjes.com builder to verify compatibility before buying.

## Frequently asked questions

Is 650 W enough for a gaming PC?

Yes for most mid-range builds: an RTX 5060/5070 with a 65–105 W CPU runs well on a quality 650 W. For flagship GPUs, go 750–850 W.

What is 80 Plus?

It certifies how efficiently a PSU converts AC to DC: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum. Higher is not automatically better for you — Gold is enough for gaming.

Can I reuse an old PSU?

It depends on age, wattage, and cables. Verify it has the right connectors (new GPUs need 12VHPWR or an adapter) and that wattage covers the build with headroom. A 5+ year old PSU under heavy load — replace it.
