In need of power supply. Recommend.

centurion_08

I can't quite put my finger on any of them.

 

EVGA Supernova G2 or P2 750W

Seasonic 750W Prime or Focus Plus

Thermaltake Toughpower 750W RGB

Corsair RM750x or RMi750

 

All of them look pretty sick but I can't decide.

 

Regards Andrew

Going for a 2080ti? Otherwise you be good for 650w max. G2 or a focus plus unit should suit you fine.

MSI B450 Carbon Pro AC.

16GB DDR4 3200mhz.

240gb SSD.

1TB WD Caviar black.

500gb WD Caviar black.

 

The only missing parts are processor and gfx card.

 

Either i wait for the 3600 or I'll settle on 2600/x.

GPU GTX 1060 or RX580

You're not going to need a 750W PSU for those components. Actual power draw from that system would probably be closer to 300-350W max, and that's assuming one of the higher power draw RX580s like the Nitro+. Would likely save a fair bit of money going with a 550W unit instead (550W since most of those units you're looking at start at 550w or even 650W for the P2 and RMi). No point paying extra for a 750W unit when it's not going to do anything for you. For example I'm seeing the RM550x listed for 80 pounds, but the RM750x listed for 120 pounds. Big difference in price.

EVGA G2 is older than the others, larger, louder
EVGA P2 models start at high wattage which you don't need, also expensive (starts at around 125 pounds)
Prime Ultra is expensive (100 pounds for Gold, 125 pounds for Platinum)
Focus Plus [Gold?] isn't as good as the other options (has had issues with high powered GPUs in the past) and starts around the same price (80 pounds)
Thermaltake ToughPower RGB is, well it's a power supply with RGB so that gets disqualified just for being stupid
Corsair RMi is pricey compared to other stuff and unless you really want that Corsair link software may as well save your money and get the RMx instead

 

For your system I'd be looking at these options, all around 80 pounds... Corsair RM550x, Bitfenix Whisper, Be Quiet Straight Power 11.
