So I think I have enough money for a minor upgrade, Probably getting a Gigabyte D5 1060  

Budget is under $65 and in US

Right now I'm looking at the SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze

 

Will be powering 

4790k

1 SSD/1 HDD

1060 (Obviously)

 

Just looking for other recommendations or if this should be good enough

Just now, Ichi said:

That is if you don't mind the ketchup and mustard cables or you have cable extensions.

I would probably spend another $20 for EVGA GS/G2.

What's your PSU now? Because a 400w would be plenty.

I would personally get a more modern DC-DC design like the updated Corsair CX450M / CX550M

 

If you are looking for a fully modular unit, the aforementioned Rosewill Photon 550w is good as well.

a CX430, wattage wise its fine and should be fine on load but seeing i have the money, Might as well get a new PSU

Getting a 1060/PSU/Cablemods all for like $165 xD
