My Psu blew up with pop sounds and fried my motherboard due to power outage . I had an Antec Bp450ps and Intel Dh61HO Motherboard. The Antec psu was brought this year on 28 Jan.

My old PC specs

  • Intel Dh61HO Motherboard
    Intel 3rd gen Core i3-3210
    Adata 4Gb(2*2) DDR3 Ram
    Sapphire R7 265 2Gb GDDR5 Dual X
    Circle 400w Psu(before GPU)
    Antec BP450ps Psu(blew Up)

As this happened I brought Gigabyte H61M-S and I tried it and it worked so now I want to get a new CPU fan, case fan, Psu and a 8gb stick as a upgrade. I want a new PSU because I don't think that getting Bp-450ps again by warranty isn't worth it or it can gain it's warranty.

My budget is Rs7000max. And my delivery pincode is 591237. I am giving pincode because few of snapdeal and Flipkart sellers have stopped service here. The itdepot links are accepted.


Can anyone give a suggestion to me on the following parts

Kingston fury X 8gb stick from Amazon.in

Deepcool Alta7 from theitdepot

Cooler master 1v thermal paste from itdepot

Antec vp450p from theitdepot

Thanks in advance.
 
Forget about the Deepcool Alta7, because it is the 92mm size, you are better to use the intel stock one, except other 120mm or better cpu cooler. Like Deepcool 120mm CPU Cooler (GAMMA ARCHER)
But recommend to forget the cooler, buy other PSU, Hydance by Seasonic 500W PSU https://www.theitdepot.com/details-Hydance+by+Seasonic+500W+Power+Supply+%28HY-500CT%29_C14P25592.html or Corsair VS Series VS550, because the i3 3210 will run cool, you don't need other aftermarket cooler, but it depends on what case you had. I know you will get high temp in the summer.
