Hi.I'm thinking of buying a new PSU for my system. I can't choose because I don't have the knowledge. If somebody could suggest any models that'd be really good. PSU must be modular, and around 600-750W, the budget is up to 130 euros.My system draws around 480-520W while under load. I'm planning to keep this PSU for next 3-5 years or so.
System has FX 6300 overclocked to 4.5GHz with 1.45v or something like that, R9 380 GPU, 970 MoBo from MSI, 1 HDD, 1 SSD, 2 4GB sticks of Kingston HyperX.



Thanks in advance!

Ok. I'll take that in consideration. Thanks for helping. I've got to say that it's modular which is great, it's aesthetics are pleasing and it doesn't go over budget.
