What PSU should I get for this rig?

CyberGhostx1 · May 20, 2015

AMD A10-6790K Quad-Core 4.0 GHz
Gigabyte F2A55M-HD2
ASUS Radeon R7 260X DC2 OC 2GBs GDDR5
8GBs of RAM running at 1333 MHz
DVD/CD R/RW Drive
1 360GBs HDD and an external 1TB HDD that is always connected.
LG FLATRON W1934S 19" Display
and a Web Cam
I hope I got everything that would be needed for the estimation.

Cheaper option : EVGA 500W

Better quality option: XFX 650W (you don't need 650, but its £1 more than 550 so makes sense for future proofing)

I'm kind of on a tight budget and I'm going to buy the R7 260X along with a PSU to be able to handle it, So, now I know that I'm going to get a 500w PSU, but what other manufacturers do you recommend to me? because where I live, there isn't a wide range of PSUs available.

EVGA, XFX and Seasonic psus are very good. These three are probably the most widely available. But, each also have good and bad models so don't just choose blindly.

Have a look at this as a rough guide http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html
