As I said in your other thread, 550W is all you need. You claim you want to get a 750W to "future proof", but cheaping out on a power supply is doing the exact opposite. A high quality 550W will probably last you longer than a mediocre 750W.

If you really want a cheap-ish 750W, the Corsair Vengeance you linked in your other thread is the best option IMO.

Yeah, it's not a bad PSU by any means. But the corsair is $15 cheaper and in general is as good or better.

I guess I'm just confused as to why you'd start three different threads asking about different PSUs only to ignore all the advice you got and go off and get some totally different PSU.
very tired, wont happen again, oh and thanks a lot for all your help and advice.
