Budget? The B2 is better, but if you want the best, 550W G2 is great!. Ill link the PSU tier list, pick somthing from tier 1 or 2. 

 

 

Hey guys, So I'm building a new pc here shortly and before I end up buying my final two parts I was planning on using my old power supply from my current PC which is an EVGA 600W supply. My only issue is I'm not sure if I'd need more wattage or if 600 would be more than enough for this build. Any help would be appreciated!

I would recommend a new PSU, the B1 isnt very good.

Wattage is fine. But if it's just the 80+ one, I'd get a better one to avoid damaging your components

Budget? The G2's pretty damn good, but anything within your budget on the first two or three tiers of the PSU whitelist should be fine (let me get a link hold on)

Money isn't much of an issue, anything below around $80 would be ideal but if it's within a couple few dollars I wouldn't mind

I don't know if I'm too late, but there is a deal on newegg right now for a 850w power supply going for around $35. It looked decent enough if you're looking for the most bang for your buck.
