620W or 700W?

[Umy___]

Which PSU is better.. 620 Watt Seasonic S12II Bronze Non-Modular 80+ or 700 Watt EVGA 700B Non-Modular 80+ Bronze? That's my rig http://pcpartpicker.com/list/F27LD8 . I will overclock the CPU. Both PSUs should be good enough but they cost the same amount of money so I'm not sure which one to get. The EVGA is so cheap that it seems kinda sketchy.

I would go for 620W from Seasonic or higher wattage if you have in mind OC'ing.

The Seasonic is easily the better quality unit. For the ram you should by a 16gb kit instead of 2 individual sticks.

Are there any good (and cheap) PSUs you would recommend?

What's the difference between a kit and individual sticks?

Cheap and good doesn't go in the same phrase. How much $ is cheap?

The Seasonic 620 is FAR better quality, also you can overclock on it, your system reasonably needs less than 450w at full tilt, so you have nearly 180w to play with overclocking which you don't nearly need that much.

 

[bignastyid]

Dimms in kits are garanteed to work together. When you buy them individually or mix them they may not work or may require tweaking settings to get them to play nicely.

Up to $100, not more than that. The PSU doesn't need to be modular since the case I picked offers good cable management imo

 

[Rogue Leader]

he means buy this:

instead of 2 seperate 8gb DIMMS. Always better to buy a matched set.

Thank you. So the SeaSonic is good enough, right?

As I mentioned above don't switch the PSU, the Seasonic S12 II 620 is more than enough to run the system and overclock. Far more than enough and the best quality.

Yes the Seasonic S12II 620 is more than enough to run the system and overclock.

The 16gb kit of that crucial ram is cheaper than buying individual sticks.

The individual sticks were on sale for a low price so I got them individually for a lower price. But thank you

Is that a good brand though? The 750W PSU of that brand is pretty cheap too.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Yes very very good made by SEASONIC.

Yes very very good made by SEASONIC.

So do you think I should get the 750W version for 82 bucks or 650W for 70? I'd be willing to pay an additional 12€ for better performance

Its not worth the extra money for you, you won't get any extra performance and its extra wattage you will never need.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

650w is more than enough , that's why I listed it.

Save the cash go for 650w.
