featured_spectre Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 ok, so my need for a PSU is a bit more urgent than a blu-ray drive, mine decided to stop working. I have a test unit which I am grabbing from the office today to make sure the rest of the components in my PC work. This is aimed at the gamers out there. My PC build is as follows Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-P43T-ES3G P43 Socket 775 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard RAM - Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR3 1600MHz CPU - Intel Pentium Core 2 Quad Q6600 GFX - XFX Radeon ATI 5770 HDD - 1x Baracuda 500GB, 2x Baracuda 2TB MISC - 1x DVD Writer (on its way out), 1x card reader, 1 additional case fan. I basically need something that can run all of that comfortably, and have a budget of £60 at an absolute max. Something Silent is always preferred, but not essential.
ICTDirect_Dave Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 800W Should be enough shouldn't it? Shaoll I PM you a couple of options?
featured_spectre Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 If you can get an 800W within the price range, then by all means, inbox some options!
CHR1S Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Remember, its not the wattage its the quality of the PSU! around 600w should be fine Corsair Builder Series CX 500w Modular '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply (CP-9020059-UK) [CP-9020059-UK] Thermaltake Smart M550W '80 Plus Bronze' Modular Power Supply [sP-550MPCCEU] Just read your reviews first
featured_spectre Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 I like the look of the thermaltake one
