Recommend a PSU

zaphodbeeb

Hi,

Have a Intel i5 machine that's about to get a new GTX760 graphics card.

Power supply that was in it has died so have taken 500W Jeantech out of my older machine for now (has a Radeon 6870).

Looking for recommendations on a good solid PSU that won't cost the earth.

Hope someone in the know can help. Doesn't have to be modular but would prefer 2 PCI-e 6 pin connectors rather than using molex adapters... but I suppose not essential.

I'd have thought 430W for such a setup would be low, no?

Quality of parts and power efficiency are more important than raw wattage. A good 430w PSU will do the job better than a budget 650w. Corsair are a good brand, been using them for years and never had a problem

I have the 430 on a similar rig and haven't had any issues.
