What power supply do I need???

[SirBobson]

Hi I am thinking about building a pc with something around these specs:

AMD FX6300 Black edition Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 HyperX 2x4GB WD Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5 inch Saphire Amd R7 260X   NZXT Phantom 410 Midi Tower

 

But I have absolutely no idea what powers supply; I'd like it to be good value but don't really mind if it's modular or not.

Thx in advance

with those specs, you don't need much. That looks like it would be sub 300 watts when fully pushed to the limit. Any quality psu between 300w and 500w will do for that.

Seasonic 300w or 350w for oc ET

 

XFX has also good cheap power supplies, like 450w pro series is good deal

 

 

EDIT:

 

Good deal

CX 430 is pretty cheap and good.

FX6300 has a 95W TDP, 260X uses probably no more than 170W. How about the 80Plus Gold Seasonic G-Series 360W? It's not too expensive given the low Wattage. Corsair's CX430 would be a decent cheaper option.

i'd go for 450w at least so you could upgrade your parts later on without hhaving to upgrade your PSU

SirBobson what do you plan on doing with this PC in the future? Will you be upgrading the CPU or GPU?

You can head over to Cooler Master's page or Extreme OuterVision and calculate it yourself (the second one provides more options) or just select your parts at PCPartPicker.com.

 

The results show about 320-350w, so a 400-450 would be fine.

Thx for replying so quickly. I think i'll go for the corsair cx 430 to give me a little room for expansion and it's also quite cheap!

Thanks
