PSU for GTX 1070

[HotGuy6PackAbs]

Im looking for a PSU to fit my system.
CPU: i7 2600 3.4 Ghz ( I will be upgrading to an new 6th or 7th generation CPU in the future)
GPU: EVGA GTX 1070
Case Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01 Mid Tower Or Thermaltake Versa N21
Motherboard: ASRock ASRock H61M-DGS
For the PSU im thinking of a Corsair CX600M. Im on a bit of a budget, so nothing to expensive.
Thanks

The CX range don't have a good reputation. What is your actual budget and what country are you buying?

I live in Sweden and the CX600M costs 80$ here, theres really high taxes. my range would be around 60-70 $ beacuse of The VAT

Yes, only buy CX units if they're much cheaper from competition.

PSU prices are stupidly different in countries to countries. I'd recommend an EVGA:

that ones 120 bucks in Sweden, a bit to much over my budget id say.

Unfortunately I don't know the retailers in Sweden.

To help pick a good power supply you should have a read at this: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

You can then go through the retailers in your country and see if you can get a tier 1 or tier 2 PSU for a good price. 600W is higher than you need and a good 450W-500W power supply is enough for your setup.

Once you find a power supply post a link and we can tell you if it is a good purchase if you are unsure.

Yeah, CX units are not that bad, it's just bad because of the price. I'm basically tired of wasting my time debating about this topic on a thread that's supposed to be closed.

It's OK. How's this one?

XFX TS 550S-GREN 550W Is 85 $. Will it be good enought?

[Rabmac]

Theres the Gold Version aswell, is it worth getting insted of the bronze?

wich would be this one XFX TS 550G-TS3X 550W

 

[refillable]

Yes... It's the same PSU I gave you. It's a good power supply, better than the CX600.

How much is the gold version? By "Gold Version" it's this one, correct?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207030

I'd say if it's just $20 more, why not?

 

[Rabmac]

I would go for the gold version if you can afford the extra expense but the bronze one is also a good PSU (both are made by Seasonic as far as I can tell and they build quality PSUs).

The difference is 100 $ for gold and 85 $ for bronze

Get the gold.

 

[Rabmac]

The gold one is a better PSU and should last longer but the bronze one is still a well made PSU and is a valid choice. Only you can decide if you prefer to pay the extra 15 euros.

 

[HotGuy6PackAbs]

Get the gold.

problem solved just got bigger budget buying and gold evga superonova 650w
im also sorry i can't pick both of you as soloution.

 

[Rabmac]

If you are getting the Supernova just make sure it is not the G1 as it is inferior to the G2 and GS.

It's fine, Good Luck!

Evga SuperNOVA 650 G2 is the im going for, i have one last question. Will the Psu fit into this case:
