I'm building my first gaming rig and just want to check there is nothing wrong with it for overclocking and gaming. I will only be going for a mild overclock and am not experienced so if someone knows what I could get on this system it would be appreciated.

Get this power supply and you will be fine for a future gpu upgrade to your pc.

I appreciate your answer but don't see myself running cards in crossfire at any time near so would prefer a 80+ gold 650w rather than a 80+ bronze 750w

I meant that i feel the quality build of the EVGA 750 B2 is better than the Corsair CSM650

Oh surely a gold is better quality than a bronze though?

I prefer this man [link]

Never ever get a EVGA SuperNVOA B series. G series are the best and they compete with the highest brand of Seasonic.

That rating is only the efficiency of converting AC to DC power. It doesn't directly relate to quality parts used inside.

Even if it's just the rating, I don't recommend him getting SuperNOVA B series. I've had one and RMA'd it 4 times because of coil whine and the fan is loud. The G series are amazing though!

The B2 is a recent release that uses Super Flower OEM which is good amongst Seasonic. They fix previous issues with the old B series.

I may possible be able to scrounge a bit more money out of my brother and pay him back and if this is the case is an rm series from corsair good enough quality?

Corsair RM is ok but could be better. My RM 650 does run warmer than i expected. I can feel the heat on the outer casing when i put my hand on it. I would advise you not to get it really.
