Which PSU should be bought with the build I have?

[lukegabriel7.lr]

I'm deciding which Power Supply to get. I'm contemplating on if I should pay 10 extra more dollars for it to be semi-modular, or save money and buy the non-modular.

Semi-Modular: https://goo.gl/ujc6fe

Non-Modular: https://goo.gl/duKtno

Current Setup:
CPU: AMD A8-6600K
MoBo: A88x-G45 Gaming (MS-7900)
GPU: Gigabyte Windforce OC GTX 1050 TI 4 GB
PSU: Thermaltake 600W
RAM: 2X4 8 GB DDR3

Save yourself and get the CX450, your system won't nearly need even 450w.

CX 450 M or just the regular CX 450?

The regular CX450 is fine.

Note that the non-modular CX550 there also has a $20 mail in rebate, meaning it would ultimately only be $30 + $4 shipping if you were to send in the rebate and everything goes through correctly.

Id steer way clear of the CX series

Jonnyguru gives it a 7 in build quality

The larger version is justt $35 meaning it will run quieter and more efficiently than the 520 ... a proverbial "no brainer" at this price

The newer CXM series is somewhat better, and a "good PSU for the monmey", but the emphasis here is on the last 3 words.

So if I were to decide on the Seasonic PSUs, which would be best for my setup: The 520 or the 620?

520 is more than enough.

Right now you may be able to find the Seasonic G series 450w unit very cheap which is even more than enough and a more efficient unit.

Alright thank you.

The Seasonic 520 and 620s aren't good comparing to what else you can get a the the price. The Corsair CX (Grey label) like the ones mentioned are much better.

Thermaltake SE 500 watts would be more thane enough for your build. First of all the PSU is 80+ certified and secondly, it is modular so you can choose easily what cable you want in your sytem and which ones you don't.
