I don't need brand or power supplies in general names just watt.

 

we wont be responsible if you buy a brick and set the world on fire.

i'm gonna say somewhere in the 500-650 range depending on how much headroom you prefer

Thank you for replies, when i said i don't need the supply in general it was not in disrespect but as I was planing on doing that myself and the product suggested will probably be out of my price range.
