I am looking at a Corsair 750w http://www.bestbuy.com/site/corsair-cx-series-modular-cx750m-750w-atx-power-supply-black/8324202.p?id=1218872214205&skuId=8324202

750W is a bit much for what you have, unless you want to put in another GPU later. If not, then a 600W would suffice.

First of all don't choose CX power supplies, those are lower quality psu, and you definately don't need 750W i would go with 600 -650W that would be even enough for oveclocking.

kristisdbs :

kristisdbs · Oct 20, 2013

I would recommend TX series, for xample I use a TX650 that is 650W and is 80 plus certified. And Nick i will search for you few supplies, wait a sec

kristisdbs · Oct 20, 2013

here you go, i see that it has a store pickup, and i have said tx series are very good http://www.bestbuy.com/site/corsair-enthusiast-tx650m-atx12v-eps12v-power-supply/4152441.p?id=1218456990505&skuId=4152441

This is the build you should get. $550 after rebates and $600 before rebates.

+ 6 Core FX 6300 CPU.
+ Asrock Extreme 4 Motheboard with good overclocking potential and nice features.
+ AMD 7950 is one of the best GPU's currently and is third most powerful only after the Titan (and Nvidia 780) and the 280x (or the 770).

+ 8GB RAM is ample for gaming.
+ 1TB HDD space is ample for storing just about anything a gamer needs.
+ NZXT Source 210, neat and easy to work case from NZXT, a well known case manufacturer.

So, this is the build that you should get, it is priced very nicely, so you should definitely get it.

I hope this helps. Take a look at the build and tell me what you think about it. Your feedback would be highly appreciated.

Sangeet Khatri · Oct 20, 2013

Oops.. Sorry guys for the confusion...

But anyways, if you are building a new rig, then consider the option that I suggested instead.
