I was wondering if anybody could give me a good suggestion for a PSU to my system. Please keep the price at 130 dollar or lower :)

My old one is making too much noise, so if you could find one that is quiet, that would be great :)

I have a Corsair RM850 but that's only because my system runs at around 300W at idle so the fanless mode is on most of the time. I'd recommend you get a RM 750 (avoid the 650 since it has bad capacitors).

They're all the same now, the Chinony RMs were discontinued quite a long time ago

Ok, so what is best when it comes to noise? EVGA GS or G2?

EVGA GS

 

 

The lowest version of G2 (750W) is overkill for this kind of system

 

He said $130, and you can easily get a G2 750 for that price.

For noise doesn't really matter. Just that GS is for 550-650W, G2 is for 750+

But they don't need anywhere near 750 watts
