Best $60 PSU?

Go to solution Solved by CyberneticTitan,

So should I upgrade my PSU first or get a Seidon 120V to replace the stock cooling on my 4170? The 400W is doing fine right now, as is the CPU, I'm just starting the upgrade process. Maybe I should go with the cooler instead and wait 'til I get more money to get a nicer PSU?

 

Cable management as of yet:

Yes, I would go with cooler first because chances are you'll have to redo your cable management if you bought your PSU first. Also if you can afford a nicer PSU, that would be better.

Okay, thanks, I guess that's what I'll be doing. Thanks for the help!

Seasonic has a few options as well as XFX like many pointed out. Antec has a few cheap units that are good too. Sorry for getting here so late :(

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

Ahh, it's alright. I decided on getting a new cooler first and upgrading the PSU later.
