Searching for PSU

I'm building a new PC, and for psu, I just found the Antec VP450P, rated for continuous power supply. Mobo Asrock B450m steel legend, with ryzen 3 3100 and gtx 1650.

 

But it says it has active PFC and doesn't work without a Pure Sinewave UPS. Buying a Pure Sinewave UPS is much out of my budget.

 

Please suggest some good PSU with continuous 450W rating which works with every UPS.

Hmm. Look for a Corsair CX450 or CX450M. Should be around $50. Don't pay much more.

 

Where do you live?

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

India.

 

CX450 and CX450m are neither available in my local, nor amazon delivers here. I've seen Corsair CV450 here. How's that ?

 

And would that work with every UPS ? 'Cause this Antec one doesn't work with non-pure sinewave UPS.

Aw man, finding good PSUs is really hard in India. I've helped others before and the good stuff is generally very expensive.

 

So let's give you a decent one that actually has Active PFC. Note that I wouldn't usually recommend this, but since PSUs are way overpriced over there, this should do you fine.

Not that the CX450 -is- part of the catalogue in Primeabgb, but it's marked out of stock. You could call to ask if they plan to have it in stock.
