Hi guys,

So, i find a good deal on RX 6600 XT, but my psu currently is corsair vs 450, and i want to replace that.
i find be quiet u9 500w for 35$ in marketplace, but it's a used psu for about a year, and am little worried about that.
Or should i get a Gamemax VP 700w for 37$, or FSP HV PRO 85+ 650w for 49$. or maybe you guys have other suggestion, psu around 30$ to 50$. i live in indonesia btw.
so thank you.

My Spec
i7 3770
Sapphire Pulse RX 6600 XT
16gb ddr3 ram
corsair v450 psu
2x hdd 7200rpm
1x 256gb ssd

But I get budget constraints to.

Have a look at this as you shop. You want a unit in tier A or...

Have a look at this as you shop. You want a unit in tier A or B, but no lower than tier C.

i decide to go with XPG PYLON 650w, cause that's what available in my area.
