Seasonic M12II-620 Bronze for a build

FidGeT · Jun 6, 2013

I have been looking around but couldn't find a solid answer so here goes.
I want to build a system but i don't know if i will need the 620watt or 750watt power supplies. they are both the Seasonic M12II ( best i could fine since i live in South Africa)

components:
CPU - i5 3570k (with overclocking)
GPU - HD7870 MYST. Edition (Tahiti LE) 2GB 256-bit
MoBo - ASRock Fatal1ty Z77 Performance
HDD - 2x 1 Tb
Ram - 4x 2 Gb

I do video editing and gaming and i am also looking at water cooling at a later stage so do i save some money and buy the 620watt or go with the 750watt?
Thanks

The M12ii 620 bronze is placed in Tier2 of PSU ranking list, meaning it has very high quality. Plus its wattage is enough for another 7870 XT to be added in the future. I suggest keeping that PSU for your build.

FidGeT :

Hi - The m12II 620 is more than sufficient for your system even if you add watercooling and you OC.
Go with it unless you plan to add another GPU to CF in the future, then be aware you will need
to use 2 molex to PCI-E adapters (each 7870 requires 2 pci-e cables, the m12 620 has 2 total) or
purchase the m12 750 up front. You didn't suggest that you're planning to CF so I
believe the M12-620 is your best choice.
