I'm about to start a new pc build. Will be getting a new mobo/CPU/ram (PSU) for now and upgrading GPU at a later date. The hardware will be a MSI b450 Gaming plus matx, R5 3600 and 2x8gb 3600mhz tridentz neo. Current GPU is a gtx 970 and would be looking twords a 2070 super or if I can get my hands on one, a 2080. Any suggestions or help on which PSU would be best for such a build is much appreciated!

Thanks

Sorry should have added that, UK and probably around £80. Possibly more if there's any big benefit in a slightly more pricey PSU

those would be in my opinion your best 3 options

Will most likely go with the rmx but will have a closer look at them when I get a chance.

Thank you for your help!
