I need help.
Gonna upgrade my PC to i5-4670 with HD7790-2GB-OC (MSI)
MOBO:
GA-H87-D3H

Please help me choose a powersupply...
Not planning on OC.

I will regularly check this site...
Not my e-mails :)
 
Solution
Radeon HD 7790 - requires 21 Ampere on +12V rail and a 500W PSU minimum.

So a decent 500W PSU will do. If the budget is low then go with Corsair CX 500 W, not of a good quality, will serve the purpose.

If you want a decent one then go with this :

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

Power Supply: XFX 550W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($59.99 @ NCIX US)
Total: $59.99
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

Agree with that guy. But, make sure you get a decent quality psu, 450w should do. But get atleast 500w, just to get extra headroom. But if you plan on upgrading your gpu later. Then get 650w psu.
You might have to upgrade your psu later anyways if you wan't a stronger gpu as your cpu is totally fine.

Thanks guys... Helped me a lot :)
BTW, I was wondering if a 450W PSU would do the honors :)
But I'm not planning to upgrade anymore... Would only be adding a GPU after 2 or 3 years... The same one mostly :)
