Don't get that power supply, it has unknown quality. Get a Seasonic S12ii 520W. Then, rather than getting a CPU 2 gens old, get an I5-6500, an H110 motherboard, and DDR4 2133Mhz memory. That will make your rig modern.

If this is a gaming build, I suspect you can do much better.

Hmm I guess it was my bad for not asking for advice first but I already got the PSU and case because there was a really great sale near my place and the price was really affordable. As for getting an i5-6500 I doubt my budget can reach it. Currently my budget would be about 600$ in the US, and in my country these specs are already about 590$. Really big difference if I went for a newer processor. Also I'm aiming for a cheap yet powerful build that could do at least GTA v and a bit of video editing. Won't this current(even though outdated) build be enough for the money? Thanks again

Also I don't really mind if its modern or not. Just making a build that's tough enough to compete with modern builds.

The NEX 650 G is a very poor quality power supply. http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=442

 

[Flunky631]

He can switch it out for a gs, g1 or g2, but as he stated he already bought a PSU, which imo is worse than the NEX

 

[turkey3_scratch]

No, he got the Deepcool PSU. He never made mention of an NEX at all. The NEX 650 G is probably one of the worst units in that price range, especially for its price. It's just flat out bad.

 

[Flunky631]

That's what I said.. he already bought a PSU that's worse than the NEX

 

[turkey3_scratch]

Yes but you recommended the NEX 650 G, which is a poor quality unit. It's alright; I can't expect everyone to spend their time all day thinking of PSUs like me 😛

Plus we don't know if the unit is better or worse than the NEX, it's never been tested.

 

[Flunky631]

He can pick up a Corsair CX650, but again it's a low quality unit. I'm only going with brands that I know and based on their reviews lol
