Looking at getting the Seasonic 850w psu. Thoughts?

Hallfrisch · Mar 23, 2016

upgrading to a xfx390 which means i need to bump up my psu. I'm looking at getting this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151108

Good company full modular and decent price. Anything I should be looking at instead, concerns with this psu?

Too large for an r9 390. Personally I would get the Evga SuperNova G2 650W. It's enough and it's better not to mention price is about equal.

Ginger the min for the xfx 390 is 750 and its recommended is 850. currently have a 620 and it is insufficient.

Blackbird, I'd like to stick to newegg better customer service generally and mail in rebates are always a shot in the dark. If they decide to stiff me on the rebate is it 20 bucks better?

650W is more than enough for a single 390.

Would a 650 limit my upgradability? Some future proofing is in mind. If 650 is enough why is it recommend a min of 750?

You can go 750w for sure , why not price is almost in the same range.

Someone recommended Seasonic to me a few years back. I tried them. Now, I will use nothing else.
