PSU for amd FX-8350 and rx 580

[remii_]

I already have an amd FX-8350, a friend gave it to me. Im buying a rx580 and I need a psu, I was thinking about Seasonic S12II 80+ BRONZE, but I dont know if 520 is enough or if I should go for 620, Ive heard 8350 draws a lot of energy, what do you guys recommend?

I'd go 620w.

I'd go 620w.

i suggested the CX550M .. i never owned the fx 8350 though. not suitable ?

It's enough , but not sure if it's available to the poster.

The 620W Seasonic has been real cheap lately.

yeah that is what i would usually suggest - seasonic. some countries seem to get only low quality psu's but the majority seem to have seasonic! i just went for the best one on offer but like you say if its not available to the poster its not much use suggesting it ha ha

This were the ones I was thinking of:

I would get a 620w Seasonic , not the 520w.

I'd go 620w.

The seasonic one has better reviews, its cheaper and has 620 watts, seems better overall to me?

they are both equally good psu's i personally prefer the seasonic but the corsair is on offer at the moment so i suggested it as it is semi modular and cheaper.. but likely not to be cheaper when you decide to buy so go seasonic ! 😛

I would get the SEASONIC 620w , it's a good fit but choose what you prefer.
