The CX450 should be more than adequate.

I would go 500w or better, 450 is pushing it just a little tight for my comfort with a 1060.

Seasonic M12 would be a good choice, as well as EVGA G2/G3/GQ

Thanks for the assistance

Really? A 120W GPU and 65W CPU.... and a locked chip at that.

A CX450 would have ample headroom, I'd expect a peak load of no more than 250W.
With a (quality) 500W unit, you'd likely fall outside of peak efficiency too (being <50% load)... although that doesn't matter much.

Anyway, agree to disagree.

So bassicly the m12 or the evga wouldnt have enough power?

 

[ghostvengance80]

Ill tell you right now i have a psu the model i have is a HPG-600ST-F12S and it wont supply my pc with enough power

Ok ok ok i get it now the CX450 is nice but boosted thinks its not powerfull enough

The M12 or EVGA options are quality PSUs, I'm not knocking them by any means.

The CX450 is more than capable too - and would be more likely to operate within the efficiency stats for the 80+ certification (although impact to your electricity bill would be negligible at best.

Your current "High Power Electronics" 600W PSU can't provide stable power, not because "600W" isn't enough, but because the High Power unit is extremely poor quality.

The PSUs listed by boosted1g are quality, but are also at least 50% higher in cost than the CX450. ($60-$90) vs the $40 CX450.

Correct. I'd disagree with boosted1g on that point (considering a 120W GPU, 65W GPU, 5-10W for RAM, 10W maybe for the HDD etc. Lucky to even be a 250W system at absolute max load) - but that's just my opinion. Boosted1g is entitled to his too.

Ok I think ill go with the cx 450 thanks for both of your time
