What PSU should I get for my build?

[Eric56379]

Hi,

I have kind of a junky PC, and it looks like that my PSU is starting to get out of date. Plus, I'll need a new one because I'm upgrading my graphics card next month. These will be my specs when I upgrade my graphics card.

MSI 970 Motherboard
16GB RAM
Hyper-212 EVO Cooler Master
GeForce GTX 1050 TI 4GB (Not SC)
AMD FX-6300 Six-Core Processor

Not sure what my current PSU is, but it's only 125W (REALLY bad for gaming :lol

I read somewhere that I should aim around 400W. What would be the best PSU around the $50-$100 range? (No more than $130)

Thanks.

Update: Are the EVGA PSU's any good? (Here)

You're confusing volts and watts. Different countries have different voltage standards and most power supplies have active power factor correction. PSU output and power usage of GPUs, etc. is generally given in watts. Need information about your PSU to say whether or not you need a new one.

you're confusing volts with watts. higher wattage is what you need.
DS beat me to it.

I made that correction -- sorry, not too great with computers.

I have a Corsair CX 430. The cord is a XINTAI XT-205.
