Actually, upon further investigation with my friend, I found out that he has relatives in Romania, from where I can actually order brand PSUs for little to no shipping costs. So I settled for Seasonic M12II Bronze EVO Edition 620W. As I understand, it's an excellent PSU. A bit overkill for my build, but cheap as well.
-
Also, it's 700W. So there's an upgrade potential.

Pricey, but again, not as much as I would pay buying the EVGA B3. Which is crazy if you think about it. So I think that NZXT NP-1BM-0700A-EU is my best bet here.
-
The other options, besides Chieftec, are as follows: ANTEC VP500P DEEPCOOL DA500 COOLER MASTER B700 V2 XILENCE XP500R6 GAMEMAX GM-600 ZALMAN ZM600-TX At least those are more common brands. I am afraid that only one website is translated in English: https://nanoteh.md/en/computers-servers/cases-psu/psu/ Either way, here's the second one: http://www.fantastic.md/surse-de-alimentare-[145].aspx

The EVGA was my first option. The only problem is that I can't get it in the local shops so I will have to order it from amazon or ebay, which ends up pretty pricey. But I guess for the sake of not blowing up my build, it is more than worth it.
-
I think about 60-65$, as mentioned I am building a budget build. But if I can't find anything suitable in this price range, I will probably have to sacrifice another 10-15$

Thanks to all of you for the information. Seeing that CHIEFTEC is generally advised against on the internet, I shall look into better known brands, I guess.
-
Yes there is. Actually it surprises me how little information on the internet there is about this brand seeing how popular they are in the eastern part of the Europe.

Looking for a good 500W power supply for a budget build. After looking in the local shops, CHIEFTEC power supplies seem to be the most popular. I would greatly appreciate it if you shared your opinion on these power supplies, specifically: CHIEFTEC GPE-500S CHIEFTEC GPS-500A8 Smart Series If you have better suggestions, please feel free to share them. As a newbie in building PCs it would most certainly come in handy. Thank you in advance!
