I need a suitable PSU for the rig. I believe a 350W PSU is adequate but the problem is to get well built and reliable units at that power range.
Here in India we get Antec VP series, Coolermaster, Corsair VS series and some CX series (CX430) PSUs. Sadly, Seasonic is either not available or very much more expensive.
Would appreciate recommendations.
The recommendations I have got elsewhere so far include 650W PSUs mostly.
 
Solution
Ignore the fact the cx430 is in tier 4 on the PSU list , its never belonged there IMO & Its honestly a better unit than the antec 450 which is a mediocre quality (at best) fsp unit.

Absolutely no intention to game so no gfx at all, now or in future.


I see all the bad stuff about the capacitors and the fact that I understand the Corsair unit is in a lower tier than the Antec one
 
well if you're not gaming, any of the subpar PSUs like the Corsair CX will do. I'd imagine some off brand PSUs will do you just fine as well, if the PSUs in prebuilt are to go by, but it would be reckless of me to strongly suggest you do so, so do try to find a decent brand at least.

it might gonna cost you more, but check Play-Asia or IPmart Malaysia. they ship internationally if that's an option for you.

 

For that matter I see that Amazon.com will ship me an EVGA PSU but I don't want international shipping mainly due to warranty issues. Prefer a brand that is sold locally since it would be easier to RMA if needed.
 


Thanks Matt.
