Hello members, i am gonna build my new system, and i ran out of my budget because of GPU. Earlier, i was sticking towards s12ii 620, but now i have to re-think.
Here's my build:
CPU - AMD FX 8320
GPU - ZOTAC GeForce GTX 970 4GB
HDD - 1TB WD SATA hdd
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 8GB (x1) 1600mhz
Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212x
MoBo - Asus M5a97 EVO R2.0
FAN - Deepcool XFAN 120mm (x2)
ODD - DVD Writer (a basic one) LG or Sony, whatever is cheaper.

Will s12ii 520 watt be enough for little overclocking? Or if any other PSU(Corsair or CM) in this price range, please suggest?
 
Solution
The 8320 when overclocked and pushed hard can use a lot of power, and when combined with the rest of your system and the GTX 970, could approach 500W.

I would want a 620 to 650W PSU.
