the BitFenix Prodigy will fit any standard ATX size PSU, so just pick a decent quality one. I always see the XFX or Seasonic ones being recommended on this forum

terry4536 · May 2, 2014

The website specifies "PS2 ATX (bottom, multi direction), PSU cage depth 180mm, max PSU depth 160mm".

You need a "600 watt or greater power supply with a minimum of 42 amps on the +12 volt rail". I would recommend a Seasonic or XFX

Will 550w be enough?

Karadjgne · May 2, 2014

Antec 620m HCG, Seasonic m12ii 620, XFX 550 black. Best bet is any good semi or full modular psu

Is that basically an xfx ts 550w? Will it be quiet?

Dark Lord of Tech · May 2, 2014

Yes the 2 above i listed are quiet.

45 amps on the 12v rail is plenty of power for you.

terry4536 · May 2, 2014

The recommended power supply for a GTX 770 is 600 watts.

The XFX 550 WILL EASILY POWER a 770 , it has 45 amps on the 12v rail , the GTX 770 only needs 42.

terry4536 · May 2, 2014

That isn't much headroom over the minimum.

Dark Lord of Tech · May 2, 2014

It's more than you think , it will run a 780 also , no problem

Zaiderify · May 2, 2014

Thanks for your help!

Dark Lord of Tech · May 2, 2014

Glad to assist thanks for posting.

Zaiderify · May 3, 2014

Is the antec HCG 620w a good choice?

Dark Lord of Tech · May 3, 2014

This one is made by SEASONIC.

Zaiderify · May 3, 2014

So it is good? And quiet? Sorry for all the questions

Dark Lord of Tech · May 3, 2014

Yes it's made by SEASONIC and is 160mm long so it's at the exact length of allowance.

Zaiderify · May 3, 2014

I think i'll go with the XFX XTR. Thanks for the help!

Dark Lord of Tech · May 3, 2014
