Rig:
1070ti.  
I5 7500.  
8gb DDR4.  
Q300P.  
VS450 PSU.  

I used the coolermaster calculator and it recommended 418 W. Right now I have a 450 W powersupply. 

I think I'll be getting something around 600-750 Watts. Which psu is good for my rig?

Preferably 100usd or less.

That system would work fine on a 450W with limitless overclocking. However, your paricular unit is pretty trash. Look for a Corsair TX550M, Seasonic Focus Plus Gold, EVGA G2, Bitfenix Whisper/Formula Gold, or similar. 450W is enough.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

You want the best of the best that fits your PC perfectly because more watts doesn't give you much benefit so there isn't a reason to go for that and you also spend more money for nothing...

 


With what you have you'd want a good quality 400-550W PSU like Bitfenix Whisper M or be quiet Straight Power 11, both in either 450 or 550W.
