Looking to buy a new PSU

I'd say this should fit. Most PSU's are a standard size. The 5 year warranty should do you good too

Hi, my previous PSU burst earlier today, and I'm looking for a replacement. Thing is, I'm not yet very good with this stuff (still quite young) and so I would like some help. So, my previous PSU was an Ace model A-500BR 500W, and my main concern with a new one is the size. I need something that isn't really bigger than 150mm x 85mm x 140mm (W x H x D), which is measurments I got from a website that was selling a PSU that's the same as my previous one. My PC consists of:

●Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P

●CPU: AMD FX 4310 @3.6GHz or something along those lines, I can't quite check, but I'm pretty confident that that's what it is.

●GPU: Sapphire Dual-X R9 270X 4GB version with OC boost

●HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1000GB (reading off the label)

●One DVD drive and three case fans as well as a near-to-ancient wi-fi card.

Thanks in advance for all the help; you guys are the best

EDIT: I also forgot to mention that I have 8GB of RAM in a single stick, by Team.

If you want my attention, quote my post or I will not see it. I ignore builds that do not use PCPartPicker.

Where are you located and what is your budget? That's just a standard ATX power supply, pretty much all aftermarket ones should fit.

That has 3 year warranty I believe, and isn't a particularly good PSU

 

 

 

As above, what sites will you be buying from?

i5 4670k - Z87X-UD3H - EVGA GTX 670 Sig 2 - Samsung 840 Evo 250GB - 8GB Avexir Core White 1600Mhz - Corsair 750D w/ RGB LED Mod & Remote Control - 2x SP120 - 3x Enermax Cluster - 2TB Seagate SSHD - Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 - SuperFlower Leadex Gold 750W

I'm looking to buy somewhere in the UK and would like the PSU to be quite cheap, because I don't have a lot of money at the moment but I would still like it to be reliable and be able to work without exploding, just like my previous one did :/ As for the sites, Ebay or Amazon, but I'd prefer to go to a local store to buy there once I've made my mind up.

Thanks to everyone for the help, I ended up buying a CX 600W on a sale.

Found one for £35 at a local computing store, so I thought "why not, it'll be a bit more future-poof than a 500W one"
