600W is more then enough, but I wouldn't get an Aerocool.

600 watt psu is fine, but do not get that brand of psu, unless you want to risk frying your rig. You want at minimum a tier 3 psu. Check out this link:

how about FSP Raider 750watts 80Plus SILVER ?

Went out of spec in HardOCPs review, so I'd pass on it.

ok ONE LAST question

how about this : Antec HCG-620 620W High Current Gaming 80+ Bronze Power Supply ?

 

[4745454b]

That's a good one. Much more then you need but it will work.

Poor voltage regulation on the minor rails (i.e. +3.3V and +5V rails). At 50% PSU load both minor rails will drop below the minimum voltage allowed by ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide Specifications during PSU load changes.

+5V rail drops below spec during crossload testing.

Which review Ko? I haven't seen a HCG fail before.

Edit: I'm guessing the Techpowerup review? I haven't seen that one before. It's odd then that they say this about it at the end.

"Bottom line, If you are on the search for a reliable budget PSU to power your single VGA system and you don't have a problem with non-modular ones, then you should put HCG-620 into serious consideration. It has a good price/performance ratio, is made by one of the best OEMs, Seasonic, and it's accompanied by 3-years of Antec's warranty."

ok REALLY ONE LAST, how about if I compare the HCG to Cooler Master Thunder M 620W 620watts Modular ?

what PSU will have the best quality

I don't see a real review of that unit so I'm not sure.
