What powersupply ?

[KaneStatton]

PSU is on its way out stupidly bought a unbranded one and its barely lasted 5 months,

So my requirements are a PSU which will be able to power my future rig,

GTX 295 or 4870X2
Same quad core (Q6600)
Another GB of ram so 4GB
Same HD, 320GB Sammy.

Want it as cheap as possible but at the same time it needs to be a good brand as I don't want to buy another in a few months.

Thanks Kane

Yes it would, but it would cost more.

The Corsair come out as noisey and hot in a recent review at anything above 50% load. Very stable and can produce their full load though.

These come out as their best budget psus http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-031-OC&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1098

He wants better than budget, and although the OCZ are good, they're not better than Corsair.

You can run a GTX 295 off that as well.

That PC P&C that fungus linked is a top drawer PSU.

 

[siumatfung]

how about you just tell us how much u can spend without hurting ur finances?

but this would be good if u have the cash

even i am tempted with that baby

Yeh well the budget was like £70 and that orangey red one has a 5 year warranty so will get that in a week or two when the wages come through.

Was going to get ARMA 2 but after playing the demo and then playing Call of Duty I realised how boring it actually is so part of the ARMA budget will go into the PSU budget if that makes sense.

Thanks for all your help anyway guys .

 

[siumatfung]

u can get free delivery so dont forget but yeh that PSU would be awesome shame i dnt have an excuse to buy anything

Rob a small bank and get a
Corsair HX 750W £114.99

Hopefully you wouldn't have to buy another one for 7 years. ^^

Cheapest PSU that isn't rubbish: OCZ
If you're spending a bit more: Corsair, PC P&C

Add to your 1st list, Silverpower, Akasa, but people are always swayed by modular, right ?
Add to your second list Seasonic, arguably THE best, along with PC P&C (and manufacturer of about half the Corasir models).

I would go for this:

This will be fine - Clicky

lthough the 600w Modxstream is good value.
