PSU recommendations

[Forseti]

Hi guys. Just wondering what PSU would any of you recommend with my build. I have a M-ATX case, Lian-Li PCA04. I have a 750W hybrid modular psu which is old now, it does only say 80 plus but no color type. Some reason the 4/8pin CPU connector just reaches the 4pin next to the CPU on my board. It is positioned high. So a PSU with that cable abit longer will be nice and not sure which are. My spec is:

 

MSI 760GM-E51 (FX)

AMD FX 8350

Sapphire radeon 6790 (changing it to a gtx700 series eventually - just not sure which one yet maybe a less pricey one lol)

samsung 830 ssd 120gb

WD black 600gb HDD (this will be changed to another SSD 500gb soon)

Samsung DVD recorder/player

Sennheiser 323D USB sound card (do not want an internal sound card cos I think more room for air cooling hehe)

 

Really I am just into the small form factor gaming PC type now instead of before. I think it's all sufficient enough for it and not having dual graphics cards lol. Not experienced dual graphics before and still think it's not quite needed.

The Corsair CX600M would be a good choice.

Personally I will recommend the HX650W. Yes it may be overkill, but it leaves room for future dual GPU upgrade(you never know) and also having a gold certification is not bad at all. Also I forgot the most important thing... the looks, its gorgeous!!

Otherwise get a CX600W.

Hope it helped!

A 450-550w unit would be fine depending on the card you end up getting, the Rosewill Capstone and Seasonic G-series are pretty good options.

 

Also, contrary to what's been said above I would not recommend the CX series. They are generally overpriced for what they are worth, with mediocre quality internal components. They are ok if you can get a decent deal with an MIR, but for around that price range I'd recommend units like the XFX Core Edition and Ennermax Naxn instead.

what do u think of the cooler master silent pro m2 520w?

[Forseti]

oh yea forgot to say my psu now is a powercool. not sure if they are any good but this one has kept my pc going and upgrades. its not died on me.

I'm from UK so not sure how many US brands will be available here. I guess all but I go to SCAN.co.uk which is very cheap for UK prices. I know they do not sell Ducky keyboards which are one of the best and another brand thats on NCIX and get mentioned alot from Linus and Slick.

Well, you can look into any PSU that is around 550-650w from either Corsair, Seasonic and silverstone, they all make very well built power supplies.

Which do you think have thinnest cables? You dont think cooler master silent pro m2 are good?

Well, you can look into any PSU that is around 550-650w from either Corsair, Seasonic and silverstone, they all make very well built power supplies. 

XFX Core, Black, and XXX Edition psu are all manufactured by Seasonic so XFX is also a good choice.

Thanks for the advice. I got a Corsair HX650.
