So i bought a cx500 then returned it because I calculated that it would not supply enough power to really overclock it, So what would you guys recommend in terms of a power supply ~550-750 Watts. Also strange request I kinda need one with a flat cpu header, the corsair air240 i am going to use has a passthough that needs flat cables. Thanks in advance!

 

edit: sorry i thought i put the partpicker link in http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/qjLcsY

What is your system? 500W is likely plenty. You should replace that PSU nonetheless.

Antec HCG *cough @Aniallation* I mean EVGA B2 or GS should suit you. The G2 is more expensive but it also great.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
