Hello guys

My friend is looking for a new PSU fully modular for his system. Likes to game play movies and some editing.

Spec:

i5 3570k @4.00ghz
16GB 1866mhz ram
GTX680
Gigabyte Z77N-WIFI
1x 2TB HDD
1x 256 ssd

Let me know if more spec is needed.

YOUR BASKET
1 x Seasonic X-Series 750w '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply £124.99
1 x Seasonic X-Series 650w '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply £114.98
1 x Silverstone Strider Plus 750W Modular '80 Plus Silver' Power Supply (ST75F-P) £104.99
Total : £357.56 (includes shipping : £10.50).

Might be abit over-kill but 750w will give your friend flexibility for SLI in the future.

Basically, get a Seasonic or Corsair.

The XFX comes with the main cables, 24-pin, Pci-e, and CPU power connectors.

Plus it's the cheapest, so I would go for that.
