PSU Suggestion (50-75$)

Philip Babilonia · Mar 1, 2016

Hi!

I'm getting an R9 380 soon and I have to upgrade my PSU as I have a stock one. So can I have any brand/model suggestions and I can use some extra information in buying since I do not leave in the US (I come from PH) and I may not encounter those brands you'll give as an example. Thank you!

EDIT: Specs are listed on the signature!

EVGA G2 550W
XFX TS 550W
Seasonic S12II 520W

If I may ask, how do these 3 differ and how do I choose between them?

G2 is probably the best, but all would be good. If you're on a budget you can just get whichever one's cheapest.

Thanks. What does modular mean for PSU?

TJ Hooker · Mar 2, 2016

It means that the power cables are detachable from the PSU, so you can remove cables you aren't using. It's sort of a convenience thing, but it can be pretty handy, especially if you have a small case.

I got a mid-size tower and the one I'm using from the looks of it is a non-modular since a lot of cables are hanging around which are not attached/used that accumulates more dust than the other parts. I'm kind of looking at the Seasonic S12 but it's non-modular and the EVGA G2 is modular but is quite pricey. I don't mind the extra cables tho since it hasn't been a problem from the start it's just there and it rightfully deserves its place for quite some years now.
