Suitable Power supply?

Go to solution Solved by daemonowner,

500W is enough for a single 770 and OC 4690k. As above, what upgrades are you planning if any?

For budget options, I would suggest the CX500/600/M or EVGA 500B. Not very good but acceptable.

For better options for a single 770, see the Rosewill Capstone-550-M, Seasonic G 550W, S12G 550W, XFX XTR 550W, Cooler Master V550S, etc.

Preferred store, budget?

 

And please don't immediately mark as solved. The first piece of advice is often not the best.

Corsair CX 650W should do just fine.

Yeah i was looking for it, i was gonna ask how about a 600? since there was only a 750 and 600..

The 750 would do you just fine, it'll give you more room to expand in the future, will have lower temps and shouldn't cost that much more.
