Best PSU for a GTX 770?

Silibant · Jun 17, 2014

Hey all, I'm getting a GTX 770 (MSI 2 gb edition) and my current PSU, a CX430W, is not equipped to handle that kind of card. So I did some research, and I came up with these units:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=17-139-010&nm_mc=EMCPB-062014&cm_mmc=EMCPB-062014-_-PB-_-Item-_-17-139-010&et_cid=8704&et_rid=8251266 HX 750W

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=17-139-048&nm_mc=EMCPB-062014&cm_mmc=EMCPB-062014-_-PB-_-Item-_-17-139-048&et_cid=8704&et_rid=8251266 CXM 600W

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=17-151-095&nm_mc=EMCPB-062014&cm_mmc=EMCPB-062014-_-PB-_-Item-_-17-151-095&et_cid=8704&et_rid=8251266 SeaSonic M12II 620W

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438027 EVGA SuperNova 750W

Which one of these units would be the best to power my system? I have a Gigabyte motherboard (I know some PSUs won't work with some mobo brands) and only need around 600 watts, but I want to be able to upgrade in the future without needing to buy a new PSU again. Thanks, and happy building.

to be honest any of these apart from the Corsair CX....these guys are just bad news, i would personally go with the Corsair HX or EVGA Supernova...the HX is a high performance- high quality unit...and so is the supernova

EDIT: yep just had a look at some detailed reviews, the HX psu is downright the best out of all these, the EVGA doesnt do so good on crossload test results while the Seasonic lacks good regulation on the 12v rail, the Corsair HX750 all the way

Newegg actually has some good deals on SeaSonic PSUs currently.

$69.99 for a 650W, and $80 for a 660W.

Ok, thanks. JonnyGuru liked the EVGA one, but I will certainly look more closely at the HX. Where do your reviews from?
