Hi everybody,

I originally planned to get this PSU because I know it works for my build:
PSU: SeaSonic M12II 620 Bronze 620W
New Egg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151095 ($90)


But today Newegg is having a Sale on this one that looks better: (Seasonic X GOld 650 Watt) ($80 ON SALE TODAY) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151088

Yeah they are universal except for some pre-configued and ready made systems like those of Dell, etc where you can't upgrade PSU without voiding warranty.

Don't worry, it has no compatibility issues with your build.
