looking for psu for gfs machine she wants. umm...basicly need to keep it as cheap as possible, as not shit as possible and about 6-700W

 

I stick with corsair AX units for my build but I know they get costly, semi moduler would be nice if doable.

What system you powering? Specs please :)

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

Gotcha. Well EVGA's GQ/G2/GS/B2 are all good. If that's a bit spendy then XFX anything/Seasonic anything/Antec HCG are good options.

Cheap as possible... not a good idea for a power supply... 

 I second this statement. Mid-range would likely be a good idea, and a good idea would be to do this little calculation (I do this for all my builds)

Max Load Watt Usage + 20% of Max Load Usage = PSU's Max Wattage (So you have some overhead, so if its using 400W at load, and the PSU is built to output that, your PSU is going to be going full throttle, So maybe (480 or above) so a 500W PSU would be suitable. I would recommend one of the budget SeaSonic PSU's. But with that hardware I wouldn't skimp too much.

Note I said cheap as possible while being not as shit as possible

 

I didnt ask for a $20 psu

 

I asked for something cheap that is still trust worthy.

That kind of stuff is still not a good idea unless you want a broken PC. 

You and I are not on the same page...at all.
