I would recommend 400w at a minimum, I believe Nvidia recommends 500w on their own page.

How much RAM does a GTX 950 have?

NVIDIA has paired 2,048 MB GDDR5 memory with the GeForce GTX 950, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1024 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1188 MHz, memory is running at 1653 MHz (6.6 Gbps effective).

Is 950 a good graphics card?

Nvidia’s GTX 950 is a highly capable, good-value GPU for 1080p gaming.

Is GTX 970 power hungry?

The card itself needs 145W, but with the system, the total would go around 270W. This rises if you OC the CPU, and can significantly rise if you have 6 core OCed CPU, to around 350W mark.

Which is better the GTX 960 or the 970?

Comparing the GTX 960 and 970 shows that the 970 is around 70% faster and a comparison of the GTX 960 and 980 shows that GTX 980 is almost exactly twice as fast as the 960.
