Hi,
I'm looking for a new psu, last one was a crappy gigatech 550w and there was a lot of problems with it.
I really cant wait anymore because I need my pc and have a small budget. PSUs that I found here in my area within my budget are corsair cx series 430/500, cooler master b500 ,thermaletake litepower and evga 430w and 500w 80+ .
My setup is
CPU: amd fx-6100 (gonna upgarde the cpu too with an i5 )
GPU: rx 460 2gb
RAM: kingstone 8gb ddr3
HDD: seagate 250gb
I use it for gaming mostly cs go, h1z1, lol, and maybe some singeplayer games.
Thanks for your help.
 
Solution


Yea, the TXM is an excellent unit, very highly rated, tier 1 PSU.

The Seasonic is an older model, but still rock solid and a quality unit.
Can you specify evga model number? New CX series should do. Can you find CX450M?
CPU is ~95W, I5 shouldn't exceed this number.
GPU is 110W
rest is~ 50W
times 1.25 to run at healthy running level
350W is more than enough.
Suggest CX450M > CX450

Cant find the corsair cx450m or cx550 here and the cx430m is a bit more expensive. Sadly they are all green models and thats all I can afford right now.
 


Dont get the green models as they are crap.
Also I can no longer recommend the "SeaSonic - S12II 520W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply" as it doesn't have OCP (Over Current Protection).
