what psu should I get?

[AbelDawson]

Hey guys!

So I am finally building my first computer. I got stuck at the psu because the gigabyte r9 280 requires a 6pin and an 8pin connector. CPU will be the Intel Pentium g3258.

Thanks for the help

Edit: I'm on a tight budget and should be cheap but good quality

overkill much? 500 would be enough.

i would reccommend the cx 500 from corsair

This should be enough for what you have now.Is actually a lil more that you need maybe you will upgrade in future you never know

Also this is better if you are on a budge the other one is more for future use

SeaSonic SSR-550RM

Doesn't that have only 2 6 pin pci connectors? Or did I misunderstand something?

my 770 uses a 6 and 8 pin connector, the psu is 2 6+2 pins

It's better to get a sweet spot PSU first rather than changing it down the road if he upgrades

And yet that psu is more expensive than the EVGA Supernova G2 850W so who is wasting the money ? 

 

I would suggest something like a Rosewill Capstone 550W or XFX XTR 550W.
