corsair VS psu

[dinooxxx]

im looking to buy parts for a new computer and  saw a corsair VS550 psu in sale for 48 dollars . probably the watts are enough for a pentium g3258 and gtx 750 ti.

i want to know if is worth buying this one or if i should go with something else.

nope - neither the VS, nor the Pentium are worth it. Both equally crappy

XFX TS 550W + Athlon X4 860K - modern games HATE dual cores

The VS Series from Corsair is renowned for their coil whine and noisy fans. proceeded with caution.

since it looks like you are on a budget-ish i5 4460 but being intel it is going to be more money but the performance is great for pretty much any game you throw at it

i cant overclock that cpu. should i wait to get a better cpu like the 4690k or go with amd one in the price range of the 4460? idk but overclocking cpus look like a better deal to me...

i feel like in a short amout of time i gonna have to upgrade it and if the cpu is ovecloclable it will last longer.

idk if im right but i appreciate ur help !

If your getting a 390, then a i5 would definitely be worth it. If you have the money for a K series + Z97 mobo +cooler then go for it. Otherwise, the 4460 will work fine.
