Need help choosing a power supply

kursed_mc · May 25, 2016

I'm building a gaming pc and I already got a motherboard and a cpu, im only missing a few components wich im going to buy in a few days, but to keep it short here's the pc i'm building:
The components I have:

Motherboard: Asus p8p67 b3 revision
CPU: i7 2600k

The components im going to buy:

GPU: GIGABYTE ULTRA DURABLE 2 SERIES NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 950 2GB GDDR5
8gb of ddr3 1600mhz RAM
500 gb 7200rpm sata HDD

Now Im in need of help on what psu should I get, so far im thinking of a 500w psu because i'm not thinking about overclocking my CPU, but since I never built a pc I have no ideia.
All help is appreciated;

sanzufin :

I can't quite afford any of those, and even If I did i would had to ship them from somewhere else, these are my options since im on a tight budget I wanna know if any of these are good enough for my build:

Eurotech Green Office 80 Plus Bronze 550W
LC-Power 550w LC6550 V2.3 120mm 80 Plus Bronze
LC-Power 500W V2.2 120mm

kursed_mc :

I would't suggest those but well look at the +12v Rail on those psu's

EUROTECH Output +12V 28A

i would take this or LC6550
--------------------------------
LC6550 Output
+12V 21 A
+12V2 23 A
---------------------------------
LC-Power 500w v2.2
+12V1 15A
+12V2 15A

These psu's are unfortunately made with cheap parts.
I suggest u to wait and get good psu so you can use it in future builds too ( and it wont blow up)

Zalman 500W ATX 2.3 80 PLUS PFC active
