I'm in a pickle

[JonathanW]

My friends online have sent me a graphics card and 16 gigs of ram.  Upon receiving these I realized that my power supply does not have a 6 pin connector! But it's also a 150W supply. (This is why you don't buy prebuilts) Oh, I should add that i'm using this for gaming. So I need another power supply. I'm considering these two. What do you think? Please refer any you think is needed or any other information. thanks in advance.

450W is sufficient for any single-GPU less than 3 years old build that isn't a Fury (X), GTX --80 series, or Titan

550W is enough for virtually any single GPU and CPU unless its a 6950X and fury X

EVGA Supernova 650G2?

[sazrocks]

Neither. You don't need 850w, go for 550w or 650w tier 3 or higher from this list: 

If your budget is tight I would go for a cx550m from corsair or if you can spare the cash something like the evga 550g3 or equivalent from seasonic.

 

Evgas g2 models have some problems with pull-down times, but otherwise work fine; source: my 650G2. Still, the G3s are newer and smaller, so I would go for those.

Seasonic S12ii is the best budget PSU, the 620W variant is <$50

I forgot about that one, I haven't personally owned anything from seasonic so I just went with the corsair. But yeah, you're right.

Evga g2/g3

Corsair rmi/rmx

EVGA G3 650W is a bit cheaper than the G2 after rebate

[sazrocks]

Go with G3 over g2 because of pull-down issues.
