Will this Dell PSU work for the parts that I want to purchase or should I upgrade?

Here is the link for the PSU which I already have in my possession from my Aurora I tore down.

Not sure if its compatible with the parts I'm looking to purchase.


This is my parts list that I plan to use for a complete build.

The case is the Aurora case that I removed all of the plastic parts from. The Hard Drive is a Seagate Barracuda 7200 RPM 1TB drive from the same Alienware. I plan to connect that drive to my current setup using usb 3.1 to Sata III, wipe the drive and do a fresh install of windows 10 on that drive from an online license. Then use the HDD with this build. Should I even waste my time with the used Dell PSU or should I just pop another $50 for a decent PSU. The HDD as well, its a good drive, lightly used but should I just pop another $50 and go for a new HDD and install windows the same way.

CPU AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
MSI 970A-G43 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Kingston HyperX Fury Blue 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
Seagate Barracuda 7200 RPM 1TB HDD
Gigabyte Radeon RX 460 4GB WINDFORCE OC Video Card

I plan to use this rig for gaming or give to a friend to get them into gaming. Also building as a cheaper/used parts rig for fun.

it should work, some dell psu's would require an adapter to use with a standard 24-pin motherboard however




are you buying those parts new? if so waste of money


makes no sense to buy am3 build right now



what is your budget?

What exactly would you advise I use instead of what I'm choosing?
I was just going for lowest dollar amount. What would you change?

a lot more power and upgradability for $30 more



with a bios update you can toss in a kaby lake i5 or i7

then the sky would be the limit on gpu's you could run


a great begginners setup, into a killer rig

I really prefer to use amazon as my only merchant as well because I have prime and I can usually get things in one day. I could switch the memory and GPU and CPU easily enough but I would need a different MOBO as I do not see that one on Amazon.
