What should be my next power supply?

NanneyGoat

Hello everyone!  I will be upgrading my psu unit unit soon and needed some advice on what to get.  I'm looking for something around 600-750 watt range, fully or semi modular, and under $100.  I was considering corsair RM or HX.  Here's my build: 

 

APU: A10 5800K <------(I'm using that because it was a gift to get me started.  I'm probably going upgrade to Intel later) 

 

Motherboard: Asus A55BM-E  <------(Probably going mini Itx board) 

 

GPU: XFX R9 290

 

SSD: Samsung 840evo 

 

HHD: WD blue 1TB 

 

RAM: Kingston 8GB 

 

Disc Drive: Samsung disc thingy 

 

PSU: Xion 700watt <-----(He's got to go!)

GS and B2 are excellent for the money as well.

It's crap quality, and if it breaks during use it can take other components with it.

Don't bother with overpriced Corsair. 

 

For your PC as is and with just a CPU upgrade later on, a great option would be the EVGA 650GS. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220gs0650v1

 

However if you'd like headroom to be able to add a second 290/X later on for CrossFire, take a look at the EVGA 850B2 http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-110b20850v1and the EVGA 850G2, if you feel that full modularity and hybrid fan are worth an extra $20 to you. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220g20850xr

My computer is not reading the SSD or any other drives.  I've also tired different SATA cables and using different ports on the motherboard but still having this issue.  And no the SSD is just fine it's the power supply, I'm sure of it!
