Morning all. What wattage PSU would you recommend to power the following?

Asus P5Q
Q6600 3.3GHZ
Akaso HSF
Creative XFI Audio
ASUS 260GTX

Thanks for the reply. I'm on a bit of a budget so would be looking at something cheaper than that.

The OcUK Swift 650W would be more my price range.
 
As Stulid says, don't go for cheaper brands of PSU, not a good idea.
If need be drop the wattage but stick to a solid make (i.e. get this) and you'll be fine for the time being, but you will lose some scope for overclocks and future upgrades.

Edit: I admit that doesn't save you much. But a solid PSU is a must!
 
I should mention the CPU comes overclocked to 3.3GHZ.

Would I be better buying second hand? Unfortunately money is tight at the minute with other commitments so it's either cheap or not at all for the time being.
 
If he's buying a PSU, why would he need it :confused:

The GX450 PSU has a single 6pin PCI-E connector, a GTX460 card needs two like the GTX260.

The GTX260 he has would have come with a molex adapter (assuming it was complete and new) , but if he sells it on then he may like to include this also.
