What Wattage Power Supply Should I Get For This Build?

[texet7]

CPU - Intel Core i5 4460 3.20GHz Socket 1150
GPU - Asus R9 270 2GB GDDR5
MOBO - Gigabyte GA-Z97P-D3 Socket 1150
RAM - Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Vengeance

Plus i'm looking to keep the price under £40
Heres the one i'm looking at: http://www.ebuyer.com/630119-evga-500w-fully-wired-80-white-power-supply-100-w1-0500-kr

500w is fine. That unit is fine, but I would grab the 500B as it is slightly better quality.

That EVGA 500W will work just fine for your needs. If you must choose another I would recommend choosing any other 80+ bronze PSU that is at least 500 watts and is a reliable brand like Corsair, XFX, Seasonic, etc. Other than that the PSU you linked is fine.

kk thanks. Is that the minimum you need in terms of wattage. Of course i still want max performance without over clocking. my budget is around like £450

 

[texet7]

Should i go for this then? http://www.ebuyer.com/278634-corsair-cx-500w-fully-wired-80-bronze-power-supply-cp-9020047-uk

No, the Cx units are junk. Skip it.

Or can I go for this and keep the price down http://www.ebuyer.com/429886-corsair-cxm-430w-semi-modular-80-bronze-power-supply-cp-9020058-uk
tbh though its only like £4

 

[tiny voices]

No, that is a Cx unit and not good at all. You really want a 500w unit

Just get the EVGA. NEVER cheap out on a PSU. It is 100000% the single most important part of the PC. Why risk your entire computer to a junk PSU?

i suggest this XFX Pro Series https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1450sx2b9

Get the 550. More room for upgrades and it costs $8 more.

No reason to get 450w here. That just limits yourself.
