Hi,

Is the 620W Seasonic M12II-620 good for this build:

PCPartPicker part list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/2eq3h

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor (£165.90 @ Amazon UK)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (£23.98 @ Scan.co.uk)
Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (£109.04 @ Scan.co.uk)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (£71.76 @ Scan.co.uk)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk (£71.50 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£50.09 @ Ebuyer)
Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 290X 4GB Video Card (£439.55 @ Scan.co.uk)
Case: NZXT Phantom 410 (Black/Orange) ATX Mid Tower Case (£80.89 @ Scan.co.uk)


I will be overcloking my CPU to about 4.3ghz and more later on. In addition if you think I can get a better PSU for the same price or cheaper please suggest them.


Thanks :)

Yes, it should be plenty. Although, I would also recommend XFX PSU's. If you want something that would run quieter, pick a PSU with a higher wattage.

Personally, I would buy a 750W XFX PSU.

The 290x is a 300W card, yes a 620W PS should be OK, maybe a 650W just for good measure... :)  All of the XFX PSs are made my SeaSonic, so any of them are good ones also...

The 290s with better cooling will be hitting the market in mid Dec and early Jan, I would wait and get one then, the stock AMD cooling sucks. I would wait for one of them before buying a 290 if I were you, you would end up with a much better card with better performance for your dollars.

Hi - That is a good unit & will run the system well. However, there is an excellent deal on the Seasonic built
prof series Corsair HX650, see below: If you can actually get it at this price, it's a steal!
