Question about ASUS ROG Strix GL12CM-CH010T
There is also no information about the power of the power supply. The Asus homepage says something about 500 watts. Which is very little, even for the card that is already included. I would like to replace the graphics card with this ASUSGeForce GTX 1080 Ti STRIX O11G-GAMING (11GB, High End), but it needs at least 600 watts, which worries me a bit. I still have a 1000 watt power supply lying around. How difficult is it to replace this model? Where is the power supply in the picture?
500 watts is not "too tight" for this device, but absolutely sufficient. Even a high-quality 450W power supply could handle this configuration. Over 500W is actually almost only an issue with SLI/Crossfire.
Consequently, installing a 1000W PSU would be complete overkill, you could hardly use it to 50% capacity (even with 1080Ti)...
(Any overclocking fun excluded).

You can see from the photos that the power supply unit is installed in the floor underneath the mainboard and graphics card. you simply have to replace all the cables, which is often quite a fiddly job because everything is wired exactly soft it also happened to me that I had to install an extension piece for the CPU because the other power supply unit was connected from above!
