Good Power Supply for these specs:

[MattbroFTW]

CPU: Intel Core i5-4570 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Asus Z87-PRO ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 760 2GB Video Card
Case: NZXT Phantom 410 (Black/Orange) ATX Mid Tower Case

The Power Supply I was originally going to buy sold out so I need to pick a different one.
I've already bought the CPU, Video Card and Memory.
I know the required amount of Power (550 watts), I just wanna know a good specific power supply to choose - for instance the one I was gonna buy was: Antec High Current Gamer 620w

Thanks in Advance 😀

Anything above 500w should be fine. Maybe 430w, but having more power is always helpful for the future.

Hope this helps!

So I can just pick any random PSU with 500w or more and it would be fine, are there crappy PSUs out there coz thats what I wanna know.

Seasonic G series 550w. 80 Plus Gold certified and semi modular for $85. It's a great deal and a very high quality unit. Seasonics are the best. The Antec you were looking at is made by Seasonic as well but based on an older platform.

This article really helped me decide who (what manufacturer/distributor) to pick when it came time to choose my power supply.

The article talks about the quality of the PSU unit and how it varies between who you buy it from. For example, you'd obviously want to choose a reputable manufacturer who has been in the business for a while and has built PSU's with quality parts as opposed to a new vendor who is selling the cheapest unit.
It lists the manufacturers, designers, and the companies who slap a label on a unit.

I went with Seasonic as I now know that they are the OEM for Corsair's units and have a good reputation (and I will tell you I am pleased with the result of my purchase and with Tom's for having written the article).

To answer your question directly, SeaSonic S12G S12G-550 550W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply from Newegg is a good choice.

Avoid Thermaltake. Stick with Corsair ( except CX and RM ) Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ ( in bankruptcy so maybe avoid right now but the units are good, the warranty might not be ) and the higher efficiency Rosewill units.

As long as it has a brand name that you have heard of like this one you are showing me, or a corsair series psu, you will be fine. Just check the product reviews to see if there were any problems with the PSU for anyone. I would suggest Corsair, great warranty service and performance, also not going to break the bank.

Thanks for the response, but that power supply you mentioned isnt available at any of the places im getting my parts from. 🙁

Could this be a possible exception though coz it got a 5/5 rating on pc part picker or should i still avoid it?

I had, for a long time, a power unit by Ultra (Tigerdirect/CompUSA's brand). It was a regular 750 Watt PSU with about 76% efficiency. I thought it was a great unit and it did well for me until I started to use a new graphics card. At that point I started getting black screens with sound looping and had to force shutdowns. I also couldn't get a reliable overclock. After looking into the voltages and efficiency of the PSU, I retired it to a computer with a less intensive life ahead of it and decided to move on to a more efficient and reliable PSU. I chose one with a platinum rating and a single 12V rail with a high amperage.
After doing so, I have been able to maintain stable overclocks and my graphics card hasn't crashed my computer since adding the new PSU.

I'd suggest a unit with a higher efficiency rating and better reputation (not that that particular part wouldn't work).

There is a reason the Thermaltake is so cheap. A quality 750w unit will be at least $115-$175. Thermaltake and Coolermaster both sell great computer parts but both should be avoided for power supplies except a very few specific models.
