I have this build:

I might be changing the GPU to the HD 6450, but it won't differ much.

The problem is that the XFX XTR 550W is currently very hard to find. What alternatives would you recommend?

I don't need the same PSU, it just need to be enough for my build.

Thanks in advance.

While both the XFX XTR and G series are based on Seasonic's S12G platform, the XTR is fully modular while the G series is only partly so (the S12G itself is fully wired). It could be argued that the closest match is the fully modular Seasonic M12II line except it comes in 520w and 620w sizes.

In the real world though, you will hardly have occasion to ever detach the 24-pin ATX or EPS cables so the G series 550w would be a fine choice, as would any of the others mentioned.
