I am planning to get a Xigmatek Tauro 600W Power Supply, I read on the site and it says 36 amps on a single 12v rail providing 432w, I know how to work it out but I don't know if it can power a I5 3570k and a PNY 660 non Ti on a MSI Z77 G41 board, (kingston hyperx 8gb if needed).

Thanks a lot.

Xigmatek isn't well-known for making quality components so regardless of specs i wouldn't go with this PSU .... NOT IN A MILLION YEARS

If you want to get a high quality PSU to power gtx 660 and easy on the money i'd recommend this :

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139051&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

or this :

Oh btw should of stated I live in the UK, but the xigmatek PSU is 80 plus certified, and the second best thing I could purchase is a corsair 500w CX non-modular as its in the same price range.

Why thanks and are you sure in total power terms the corsair over throws the xigmatek? Oh and btw love the modular as well, couldn't find that.
