Need Help Picking a PSU

[AndrewDafuqq]

Hey,

I have built my system but I am currently having trouble with picking out my PSU, I won't be needing any PSU over 800W, I just need a PSU that has a good price, that is slient and is stable.

You can only pick the PSU from BudgetPC because that's where I am building my PC.

HCG 520W is a good one.

CX550M is a good fit.

Pick one from the 2 above , both are decent power supplies that fit your setup.

750w is a waste for a system that has room to spare even with 550w.

750w is a waste for a system that has room to spare even with 550w.

I know its too much, for now, but the op requested something in the 800W range. I looked over the site and found what IMHO is the best unit for the best price in the power range requested.

I do not suggest the corsair cx series, at all. Ever.
I have had good experience with Antec PSU's though.

The new CXM series from Corsair is improved , they are silver and black units , now with a 5 year warranty.​

thrice bitten I'm afraid I might suggest them in a couple years when I know they aren't crap. Till then I err on the side of caution.
the old ones had a 5 yr warranty too.
