Your question cannot be answered till you tell us what you use it for and what you want it to do in the long run.

It should last you a few years (5+), or slightly less (-5) if you're going to be overclocking.

I would be scared of that PSU, too. I recommend getting a PSU from either Corsair, SeaSonic, XFX, EVGA, or Antec. They make high quality power supplies.

O sorry didn't think of that, I upgraded to play high end games such as Battlefield 4 and Crysis 3.

No overclocking, I am going to leave everything at stock speeds.I am planning to get the Seasonic M12II 620w in June.

playing crysis 3 and bf4 im guessing your getting medium settings at 1080p? as far as how long it should last? idk, no one will. The newer demanding games arent out yet nor say minimum specs. but your gpu is a really low end, so im guessing demanding games wont last very long

Get a better GPU, keep your overall PC nice an cool and you should be fine. I know you said you will not overclock but if you do keep in mind that puts a lot of wear and tear on the whole computer.

Hope this helped!
