Which specific power supply?

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Please don't get that power supply. It's terrible.

 

Give me a budget + a website/store to look at and I'll find some better alternatives.

i don't have a lot of options and its hard to find a good power supply here in my country. i do have alternatives but its more expensive, like the corsair 750cxm (semi modular 80+ bronze) which cost around $115 US, which is like $19 more

The Corsair CX450M or CX550M perhaps?

That's quite a lot. The Seasonic G-550 is a good choice if you can find one.

Is there any Seasonic power supplies? At all?

 

If not, can you give me a list of what is actually available?

Jesus... that's a poor list of power supplies...

 

Obviously the Corsair RM850x is the best choice but I'm not sure how your budget would cope with it. If you can't afford it, the Corsair CX750M is the best next choice.

 

The rest are garbage to be honest.
