The evga g2 or G3 series are always good. The 550 watt one is $80.

Seasonic also makes some nice ones. They have a 550 watt and 650 watt 80+ gold rated psu that is $60 and $70, respectively. However, they're only semi modular.

I am going to build my computer very soon. So far, my plan is to get i7 7700k(maybe will try push to 5.0hz), EVGA Z270 motherboard, gtx 1080 or 1080ti, Corsair hydro series h100i v2Extreme. I would like to know what PSU I should get and does evga psu good?

Thx

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

550w should be fine even with a 1080ti, but if you want to play it safe and/or may look at something like 1080 sli in the future you might want 650w.
