Recommendation for PSU

Hi guys, Ive been stressing out of what PSU should I get. I been seeing some good ones but theyre out of stock/prices are ridiculous. Could anyone recommend me something that is good/reliable according to my build? All the help would be appreciated. Thank you so much! PS: Im from canada, if that helps.

I have noticed PSU prices increase at least in the US.You may have to spend more/wait.

Not a top of the line PSU but for your build it's plenty and wont give you any problems:

If you have some more money to spend on a bit higher quality PSU:

spend the money and get yourself a nice Corsair HX850i or something. I may be biased because I'm using one, but it comes with a 10 year warranty and I've been using it every day for 6 years with 0 problems. I fully expect it to last 10-15 years or more.

Would spend the money, but HX850i would be super overkill for my build. I get that we may have to future proof somehow but I dont think id ever get to the point id need 850w

What's your budget ?

Anyway, look at these :

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/gPXYcf/seasonic-focus-550-w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-focus-gm-550

First two are good budget options, third one would be an upgrade from them, basically top tier stuff.

That's a horrible suggestion. 

 

With that GPU, it probably WILL give problems.

I'd go with a 500-550w psu as the bare minimum...450w MAY work, but IMO, you're going to have problems. Rx 5700xt gpus draw a lot of wattage. Evga psus are pretty low tiered but will work if you get one with the proper wattage. I'm using a 500w evga bronze psu with a ryzen 1600af and rx 5700 (non xt) I'm sure I'm right at the limit of the psu capabilities.

Tariffs.

 

And, unfortunately, most companies import to Canada via the U.S., so even though there are no tariffs on Chinese goods for Canada, the products still get dinged.
