Hi folks,

Currently in the final stages of buying and building my first rig. Just 3 pieces left to get and they are:

  • PSU
  • Case
  • Mobo

In my basket at the moment i have:
YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 AMD 990FX (Socket AM3+) DDR3 Motherboard £104.99
1 x Corsair CS650M 650W Semi-Modular 80+ GOLD Certified Power Supply (CP-9020077-UK) £79.99
1 x Antec One Gaming Case - Black £49.99
Total : £249.07 (includes shipping : £11.75).



Ready and waiting i have:
8350, MSI r9 280x, G.Skill 8gb (2*4), Corsair h80i and an OEM lite-on dvd drive.

I'll be sticking in 3 Sata drives and more than likely an SSD.

So to cut a long story short, will the 650w PSU cover all that.

I was after a 750w but i don't have the funds on the credit card to cover it (it's only like £4 and won't clear in time) and the Mobo is this week only.

Apologies if that was a bit long winded and maybe even in the wrong area!

Thanks :P
 
What's your total budget? Also I wouldn't pick that PSU I would be looking at one of the Superflower or Sea Sonic

With the mobo and case i've got around £100 to play with but with shipping it takes it down to around £75-80. Not the biggest amount i know.

I had a look at the superflower and the seasonics. But Superflower ones in my range aren't modular and the seasonic ones are a bit too expensive i feel.

If i had the free shipping from forum posts it would be all good :p
 
You know i've had the 200r in my basket for about 3 days but today was when i decided against it. Great minds and all that :p

Ordered that setup.

Thanks :)
