Looking for new psu

Quano · Jul 2, 2013

Hi
My current psu (a 500w novatech) has stopped working probably and I have had it tested. So I am looking for a new one I have looked at the corsair gs600w one but feel its quiet expensive. I don't really need a 600w so not sure whether I should just get a 500w one. Any ideas?
My system is:
i5-3540k, 8gb ram, amd hd 7950, 1 TB HHD, 120 GB SSD and several system fans.
Thanks

how good is the OCZ ZS and modXstream series? are those worth getting? or is the xfx by far the best option?

Tier 2 UNIT and would be a good choice,

XFX 550w core edition, Seasonic, Corsair, Antec are all good makes.

OCZ ZS < Is a good unit and will do the job for you (Teir 2)

Quano · Jul 2, 2013

in that case which would you choose out of the OCZ modXstream 600W, OCZ ZS 550W or 650W , corsair CX600M and the corsair GS600?

Quano :

XFX core edition 600w, then the Corsair GS 600, CX600M. I don't like OCZ personally.
