Power supply question

Swegly

Is this a good choice for a power supply? - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/evga-80-plus-600w-atx-12v-eps-12v-power-supply-black/8511029.p?skuId=8511029

 

I'm going to be using it with the build in my signature until my other power supply that I had to RMA comes back. Thanks!

No. That's a bottom of the barrel PSU. The CX450/M is usually the cheapest price that isn't crap. 

Ok thank you, you think that 450w would be enough to power my build though?

Yes, a 450W PSU should be enough to power a ~250-300W PC.

Its not about Watt its about the Quality of the PSU and how it works.

For example: Does it do 5V and 12V together or independantly?
