650W enough?

[SlaughterSmurf]

This is my PC, I'm running my CPU OC to 4.4ghz continuous and my GPU to a 1150 under load

However, my PSU is dying (random crashes with error Kernel Power, I've gotten answers on the forum before saying that it's my PSU) so I was looking at this one

Would this do my PC nicely?

600w is enough for any single gpu card + oc, so 650 is perfectly fine. You generally want a strong psu (twice as much power as you're actually using) for efficiency/quieter computer.

 

650w + good psu will last you a long time. Ethocreeper gave you a good alternative that you should consider.

It's twice the price, a bit out of my budget right now. I'm mostly just getting this so I can give this PC to my girlfriend when I build a new one over the summer. 

 

Edit: Thank you for the advice though! I really appreciate it!

I'm only getting this because I want to give this PC to my GF after I build a new one this summer. By the time this PSU dies or runs out of warrenty, the PC will probably need to be replaced as it will be 9 years old at that point. Also, that one is twice as expesive because I the cheapest one I found in Canada for the other one was 210 rather than 110.I appreciate the advice though! Thanks!

Yeah, that is enough for plenty of future updates
