You can get a good one then:

550W is plenty enough, but the 750W models aren't much more expensive.

The Rosewill Capstones are high end SuperFlower design. The XFX is high end Seasonic.

you can even select the wattage


Only get TX, AX and HX PSUs from Corsair, the rest use bad capacitors and have heat issues and a relatively high failure rate because of this.

The CX series uses cheap secondary capacitors that are known to have longevity issues and don't take heat very well. While there are many worse choices, there is also many better ones.
