The thread title pretty much is the question. I need a new PSU, so which PSU should I get that will run my computer without any problems?
Here are my system specs:
Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GV-N65TOC-2GI GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB
CPU: AMD FX-8150 Zambezi 3.6GHz
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
HDD: 1 TB Seagate
Disk Drive: Standard comes with every computer type of drive
 

Thanks for the reply Brett, I had a 600w XtremeGear PSU before, but it stopped working when I put these new parts in.
 
For a system using a single GeForce GTX 650 Ti graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 400 Watt or greater power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 20 Amps or greater and that has at least one 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated @ 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most important factor.

Overclocking of the CPU and/or GPU(s) will require an additional increase to the combined +12 Volt continuous current ratings, recommended above, to meet the increase in power required for the overclock. The additional amount required will depend on the magnitude of the overclock you are trying to achieve.

The Corsair Builder Series CX430 ( SKU# 75-001666 / CP-9020046 ), with its maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 32 Amps and with one (6+2)-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors, is more than sufficient to power your system configuration with a single GeForce GTX 650 Ti graphics card.

Corsair $70 MIR 20 = 50
Plus $ 50 - $ 12 off = A deal of a lifetime
