Ok my old psu is almoust dead and im true with patchin it up, i got saved little cash on a side and i wanna buy new one to last me few months till i can get more money to buy some rly good psu but i cant deciede what psu to choose from this 3.
Thermaltake lt-500 500w,
LC Power LC600H-12 600W v2.31 or
Chieftec iArena 500W, GPA-500S8
those are the ones i could find today and they are in my price range that i can pay them up.
my pc specs are
phenomII x2 560be
2x2gb ddr3 1600mhz
msi 870-c45(f/x)
sapphire 4870 512gddr5
320 gb hdd
dvd-rw
and a few fans XD
as i know any of those psu's can hanndle this pc but im more interested in getting best of those 3 cuz il when i get new psu il use this one in older pc i got. btw u can suggest some more psu's that are in this price range like this 3 and i can try to find it here (in this country i am curently there isnt big offer on psu's)
😉
 


Agree with ferret of those three.

The LC Power I believe is made by a rsy, a low end Shenzen mfg.
The TT is Solytech and is right down there with rsy.

Chieftec by default



 
I found this psu aswell , its little bit more expensive then others but this is highest i can go
Chieftec Smart GPS-500A8, 500 W so i have to choose one of this two chieftecs . and thats gonna happen tommorow so i guess that this i added now to combination is better then the iarena one ?
 


Hi again - both those Chieftec's are made by Channel Well Tech, the smart series
has 1 more +12v rail(s) amp than the other, but the iarena has more pci-e connectors,
the hd4870 requires 2 pci-e connectors and the smart 500a8 has only one.
Go with the iarena, it will save you from using a molex to pci-e adapter.
