i allready have all parts, but my PSU died, i'm surprised it did not took something with him.

something around 600W should be enough right ?

i'm looking something into 60-80 Eur zone on this site : http://www.skytech.lt/ (they have my pc atm, they will be replacing it too)

i'm really looking for a reliable one like PSU Seasonic S12II-520 520W  but they are out of stock, and it will be 1-2 weeks till they get some.
is there any more reliable ones that you can spot for me ?

(pc used ~16 hrs a day)

500w would be more than enough.  go with quality over quantity though.

[hogfather]

btw a RM450 would do just fine.

This? It's around your price range and has even better quality components than mine. Wattage is also enough.

but isint 450W cutting a bit too close ?

[don_svetlio]

Lol, no, Your system, stock clocks, uses around 300-350W if I were to guess. Mine uses barely 350W so it's fine.

Keep in mind OP, the 450W is what your system can use, not how much can be drawn from the wall. That's a different metric. SeaSonic also underspec their PSUs so this is a 500W unit and can be regarded as one since reviewers easily pull 500W stable from it. But again, your system won't even pull 400W.

Also, don't get RM, horribly overpriced and crappy secondary capacitors.

i dunno, is there anything else ? since both are out of stock and i really preffer that 520 seasonic one just by share reviews of it.

Trust me OP, it's fine. I'll try to find the video, but OC3D, I believe it was, made a video using an i5 + GTX 780 on a RM 450W with furmark and a CPU stress test and it was pulling 430W. The 760 pulls quite a bit more than a 270x and that APU. Furmark also adds around 50-60W to the GPU's power usage. Your system will use around 300-350W with the GPU using about 150W and the rest of the system using a VERY generous 150W - CPU is 90W, HDD is 20W, optical drive 20W and the rest around 20W (these numbers are the absolute max anything can pull).

Go ahead and buy it. Just make sure you get the "EVO" version so you get the good one. The older one (non EVO) had high failure rates.

i believe you, but just in case i will try to add something in future, or decide to OC a little, i think pickingin 520W one is a decent idea, since all i see are good reviews, even in linus video it says if jonnyGURU gives theyr seal of apporval, it most likley is good. but waiting 1-2 weeks gonna suck

well this is something that i did not knew, i thought EVO was just modular PSU but all same.

Well, you could look at 620W for even more headroom.

[don_svetlio]

Both are modular - not sure about failure rates honestly, both have good reviews when I was looking.

[STRMfrmXMN]

The older ones are grouped into the newer ones with reviews a lot of the time. Kind of a bummer

[STRMfrmXMN]

They're both similar but the internals are different. Older ones have ridiculous DOA rates.

Source? When I was looking I saw around 90% positive reviews.

[tautvydas]

so getting evo for 20 more euros is worth it ?

[STRMfrmXMN]

Older reviews I've seen a long time ago. I'm looking around but because the reviews are grouped together now it's hard to find a hard source.

[STRMfrmXMN]

Hmmm, depends on cost to ship it back if you do get a dud gen. 1 M12. I'd personally get and Antec High Current Gamer/EVGA B2/GS/G2 at that price myself.

DOA ? if you mean dead on arrival, then i dont know. since they will order whatever model i decide on, they will test to see if its working or not.

but i'm obv. looking for safest psu that i could put stress on it without any worry about psu killing my parts

[don_svetlio]

Maybe you mean the ones pre 2010? Those are older than the non-EVO

Then get the S12G 550W and call it a day - it's going to be good.

[STRMfrmXMN]

Yeah, I'm talking about the non-EVO ones. The EVO is the new model. However it is quite loud from what people are saying. I generally just avoid that little selection of Seasonic PSUs to be totally safe.

Well check out the Fractal Edison M/EVGA B2/EVGA G2/EVGA GS/Antec High Current Gamer/ whatever you can find. If you aren't sure about a particular PSU then ask.
