Need Help Choosing a PSU!

[vito855]

Hello!


I'm a fairly new PC builder, almost done with my first build, but the one thing I still need to order is my case. For anyone interested, my list:


-CPU: Pentium G4560




-GPU: EVGA GTX 1050Ti 4GB SC [Yes, I know the Rx470 is slightly better, but this an eSports PC and I prefer NVidia.]



-case: Realan ITX case E-T3




-RAM: Kingston HyperX 1x8gb DDR4-2133MHz



-MoBo: MSI H170i Pro/AC




Any feedback/input would be greatly appreciated! If you have any other suggestions, please let me know!

Perhaps posting this in the GENERAL HARDWARE or NEW TO PC's boards would help?? This is the CPU board. You'll get more people using those boards that can help

Plus you can't post up competitor links. You'll have to delete this thread and start again mate. Before a MOD sees this

Normally I would just pick a fanless PSU from Seasonic. However, your case is a specialised case. Obviously a standard PSU may not work. For external PSU, maybe something like 250W would be fine, according to Seasonic's calculator.

OK firstly I am not a mini ITX expert, so check everything I say, but here goes...

The 1050ti won't fit in that case will it? So maybe a Phanteks Evolv Mini ITX with something like an EVGA 430W PSU? There may be some merit to getting a modular psu as well to avoid the clutter, like the Corsair CX450.

Please don't buy the EVGA W or B series PSUs. They are garbage. The Corsair CX is a step up from those for sure, as far as cheap PSUs are concerned. There are however a lot of good cheap units from companies like Superflower who make excellent PSUs but are not as well known so they sell them on the cheap. They are also an OEM for many well known companies which then mark up the price and slap their logo on it. Worth considering.

I think you need to reconsider your GPU and case choice and consider ease of building, replacement part ease of accessibility, ease of build, airflow, which components can be acomodated, etc.
