Will the Haswell power supply fit the i9-10850K processor?
Will the Haswell power supply fit the i9-10850K processor?
Good evening,
I need to replace several parts and check if a suitable wattage Haswell PSU fits an i9-10850K. I'm transferring my existing setup into an HTPC with a Haswell PSU from a 4770K, and I plan to use the same modern PSU for the new build, which will be an i9-14900K. Thanks!

There isn't a specific "Haswell PSU." That term refers only to those that met Haswell's sleep state requirements, which most older, less efficient units didn't. Just being compatible with Haswell doesn't guarantee quality. To provide a proper response, the exact PSU needs to be identified.
An old PSU poses a slight risk mainly because of its age, but that depends on your needs.
Focus on the power output capacity, as in the worst scenario you might need to lower the CPU and GPU to the levels the PSU can manage.
What is the model name of this PSU?
Can you provide a photo of the information label on the PSU? (upload to imgur.com and share the link)
What are the final specifications of your PC? Could you list all the components?
Parts that consume the most power are the CPU and GPU. Understanding these is crucial for selecting the right PSU to power your computer.
Thank you for the quick replies all around. I successfully located an old email receipt from ten years back, here’s what’s set up in my HTPC (hoping to reuse it for the 10th generation):
