Will this PSU be enough??

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

I am thinking of suggesting a Seasonic S12G 450W for the following build for a mate:

Xeon E3 1230 V3
16GB DDR3
R9 280 3GB
240GB Kingston SSD
One 500GB HDD
Gigabyte Z97N-WIFI mini-ITX motherboard
Kuhler 620 AIO water cooler
Bitfenix Prodigy case

Other PSUs I am looking at are Seasonic M12II Evo 520 and possibly the Corsair CS550M,although the latter seems to use a few Chinese capacitors which I don't like.

The maximum PSU budget is around £60 and decent build quality is important as the build does need to last around 4 years,with maybe a graphics card upgrade down the line.

yes it will. although being non modular doesn't help too much.

Have you looked at the Superflower range they seem to be getting some good press.

you system comes out at 410w give or take so 450w will be but a bit close for comfort IMHO

I have to agree as well

My 8350 and 280X pulled 400W ish while playing BF4 so I think you will be okay with a 450W, since your friend has a more efficent CPU and a ITX motherboard. If you wanted a graphics card upgrade though I'd probaly grab a little higher just to be on the safe side.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions and advice - much appreciated.

However,I managed to find a Antec TP550C Gold rated PSU for a silly price just now - so suggested that instead. Seems to be well constructed too.

BTW,that SuperFlower Leadex GOLD is pretty epic for the price!!
