You only need 550 to 650 watts (to be safe) so 850 is WAY more than enough. Totally will work 馃檪

Seasonic makes nice power supplies, I wouldn't worry about quality either.聽

I love making PCPartPicker lists.

If I answer your question (or someone else), please mark it as the answer.聽

Please refresh before replying, I like to edit my posts.

Exactly!聽 This is why I always buy high quality PSU's with 10 year warranty. They will stay with me for a while and I feel safer having a good PSU in my system.
