OC PSU required

[Akamii]

if im going to oc my fx 6300 that means i will need higher psu?
also if im going to oc my fx 6300 + gtx 960 gpu or r9 285 , it means more psu usage?

 

in both cases i will be fine with  "ZALMAN ZM500-GV 500w 80 + bronze ?

[NikiiStarman]

I'm not sure what the tdp of FX 6300 is but you should be fine.

i would opt for a 650w psu.

A 500w psu would be capable of doing this, but it will be maxed out under load, wich is never a good thing.
You will get a lot of heat & noise, instable voltages and the lifetime of the psu will go down drastically.
Spend the extra few bucks on a better PSU, never cheap out on a PSU.

A 600 or 650w PSU would be better suited for OC.

if you buy gtx 960 you will be fine with your current 500w psu , even though it´s rather low quality unit .
total system power consumtion will stay below 350w even if you will overclock your cpu .
if you choose to get amd 280/285 or 280x i would recommend to buy some XFX core edition PRO or TS series unit
(550w or 650w model) or seasonic EVO line unit (620w will do) .

thank you but they are expensive for me.. and btw you meant amd 280/285 or 280x with oc processor or without? thanks.

and my budget for psu : 60~65$

Maybe the SuperFlower Leadex Platinum 2000W

JK

Maybe an EVGA 650W G2

consider buying amd r9 series video card only if you will buy better psu along with it .
you should be able to get some XFX unit (at least 550w) in your price range .

The Silverstone Strider Essential 600W is a good choice in you price range. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/silverstone-power-supply-st60fesb

none of these in my country

search for the seasonic (evo: 520w (40A on 12V rail) , S12G 550w)
antec (true power classic (TPC) 550w or high current gamer 520/620w) ,
rosewill capstone ...

those are very high quality units which should be on the edge or rather little above your budget .
but they are worth little extra money .

less awesome and cheaper units you could consider are :
evga 600B , OEM seasonic product line , cheaper antec units (preferably those made by delta) ,
corsair CX units (but i would personally try to avoid them if possible)
