Okay so Im getting back into computer building and its been long overdue. Right now money is tight and I plan on buying 2 or 3 parts every paycheck until I can have the rig up and running.
So to begin with, I plan on getting either the CoolerMaster 912 or 922 case or possibly the Corsair 200r Carbide. Not sure yet its a toss up on whether I want a window or not in the case etc, as well as aesthetics.
Now the bigger Dilemma is the PSU, I used to swear by CoolerMaster PSUs but Ive been noticing they have been getting a bad rap lately judging by the newegg reviews. What I am looking for is a reasonably priced reliable PSU tier 2 or so I guess to power a rig that will most likely consist of a i5-3570k (or haswell equivalent), a 7950 radeon or a 670gtx nvidia, a bluray drive and not much else. Rig is primarily for gaming, watching movies, listening to music, and school work, not necessarily in that order
So Im finished rambling, what do you guys recommend for a good quality psu that wont run me to much dough? Im trying to keep the price of the rig right around $1k.
