So recently my computer stopped working, and I am sure beyond a reasonable doubt that the Evolveo Pulse 400 ATX power supply is broken. And also I am looking to upgrade to a 16gb RAM kit with only 2 sticks of ram. And currently I have these components:

AMD FX-4300
Nvidia Gainward Geforce gtx 960
Asus M5A78L-M LE of course

So which power supply should i choose?
And which RAM kit should I choose?

If you plan on upgrading eventually to a more powerful system, look for a 650W PSU with at least bronze rating (gold is better).

I like seasonic, so perhaps the SeaSonic G-650W 80Plus Gold Modular PSU (or something like it). It is way more than you need now, but you can take it with you to your new machine or you can upgrade your GPU with no issues.

Any DDR 3 RAM that is less than 1866 MHZ (1600Mhz is easier to get)
