What PSU do I need?

[Alex mench]

Right now I have a 300W PSU and sometimes my computer will randomly shut down. This a picture of my PSU and other of my computer parts as it is right now https://imgur.com/a/1c1NX. My processor is an AMD A 10-6700, I have 12GB of ddr3 ram, and I have integrated graphics, AMD Radeon HD 8670D. I want to get a GTX 1050, but I find that there are so many and I'm honestly confused. I found this cheap one

and I found this PSU

Can anyone tell me if these are any good and if they would even work with my computer? Also would I have to get better ram cos I was thinking about 12GB of ddr4.

dont buy from aliexpress/alibaba.

and to be honest for 80 dollars you're getting nothing at all.

what is the make of the 300W PSU right now? giving that AMD CPU will consume more wattage then a 1050 GPU you need at least a 500W PSU. the one in your link is low quality so i would advidse against that one

you mention integrated graphics too, are you using both the integrated GPU and the 8670?

Assuming your Canada the cx450 is the cheapest good quality psu Is actually recommend.

As mentioned do NOT buy a gpu from aliexpress, there are too many fakes about & that one you linked has never ever been a gtx 1050 - it is plainly a fake card

If you are really on a budget and if a 450w will work,

We all like higher quality modular psu's. But with an older pc on a budget, you might just want a 1/2 decent one that works. Actually for 10$ I'm almost tempted to get it, just to mess around with on my old parts pc.

That's not even remotely decent.

Should it be compatible or do I need to find out what my motherboard is first

is your computer a pre-built (brand name one) or custom built?

It's a pre-built one, asus if that helps.

it might be tough then getting a PSU for it but it depends on how radical the case is. some brand name PC don't use standard size PSU's
