Can you sleeve a non modular PSU?

Would 550 be enough for a set up with an fx 6300 or A regular i5 and a 290/290x/780?

Wou;d 650 be enogh for that?

550W would be just fine but if you want more overhead you could get a 650W

  • Yes you can, but as stated above, its a bloody pain
Yes, that would be ideal and still leave you headroom for any over-clocking or additional fans/drives.Yes, but a little unnecessary with your listed set up.

As others have stated you can sleeve a non modular PSU, I know some people that offer sleeving services and a few of them prefer sleeving non modular.

Personally I love sleeving modular PSU's, but I will be sleeving my first non modular PSU soon.
