its a lower quality unit. i wouldnt recommend it for a gaming system.

this is one of the best deals out there right now:

if you want to pick your own use tom's tier list to get the right one. i strongly recommend tier 1 or tier 2 for a gaming system. the psu i linked for you is tier 2.

It's a very poor quality power supply , for Cooler Masters look for V series.

Krisius · Sep 14, 2015

N3rdR4ge :

Good amount of people use corsair cx series that is in tier 4 without any problem any thoughts on that?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 14, 2015

Not the greatest to use , look for Cooler Master V series.

Krisius · Sep 14, 2015

What about b series are they any good?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 14, 2015

Nope , for Cooler Master the V series is pretty much the cream of that crop.

ANTEC VP600P 600W ?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 14, 2015

Better than the B series.

N3rdR4ge :

I will probably buy corsair vs550 since im limited at choosing tnx anyway

N3rdR4ge · Sep 14, 2015

i would recommend this one too, although i noticed your budget is 80-130. i would highly recommend spending the 200 on the better unit blackbird linked. psu is one of the most important, but most easily overlooked part in a system. there are a lot of bad power supplies out there that are falsely advertised or have a flawed design.

N3rdR4ge :

I know this is offtopic but i bought r9 380 which need 33 amps do my first or second +12 rail need to have 33 amps or both combined?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 14, 2015

The XFX 550W can easily run it it has a single 44 to 45 amp single 12v rail.

N3rdR4ge · Sep 14, 2015

split rails never add up to exactly the same amount of amps. i would get around 40 amps to be on the safe side. also, you want to buy a somewhat stronger psu than your card needs because it will put less stress on your unit and create less heat.

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 14, 2015

The VP600 has 2 - 30 amp 12V + rails so it can run the card , but quality ids lacking compared to the XFX.
