Hi,
I need help choosing a PSU for my new and first pc build. I'm not sure if I should go with the evga or be quiet. I've read reviews and I'm not sure if supernova is a bit overkill for me or if the pure power is sufficient for my build.
In my country the pure power is about $20 cheaper and has 3 year warranty.

Other components:
Intel i5 6500
Msi gtx 1060 gaming x
Asus b150 pro gaming
HDD and SSD

Thanks for all answers and help

I own a Supernova G2 550W PSU, and I must admit, you get what you pay for, it is definitely worth the money, not too sure about the Be Quiet PSU. But I must admit that the Supernova PSU is an amazing PSU, and the build quality and the cables and everything you receive are all high quality. As you probably know, the Supernova is a Fully-Modular PSU, and it comes with a small, high quality bag to store the spare cables in, which in my opinion is a great little addition.
 
Between the EVGA SuperNOVA 550 G2 PSU and the be quiet! Pure Power 9 CM 500 PSU, the EVGA unit uses higher quality components and its performance is better than the be quiet! unit.

Recommend the SuperNOVA 550 G2 be used as it should last longer than the Pure Power 9 CM 500 unit.

As others said, EVGA G2 550w is the better unit. It also comes with 7 years of warranty. This unit got 10/10 from jonnyguru, one of the most reputable power supply review site.

Which country are you from?

Thanks for answers.
I thought that the supernova would win. I'm just trying to get the cost of pc as low as possible without sacrificing quality. But if the cost is justified I think I'll go with evga.

I'm from Czech Republic.

List of main components are in my original post.
It'll be:
I5 6500
MSI gtx 1060 gaming x
Asus b150 pro gaming
SSD and hdd
24" benq display
Nzxt s340
some fans and a cpu cooler
And w10

And I chose the components to also look nice though the window

My budget is about 30k czk (about $1200)
But electronics cost a bit more here.

Probably is easier, as you will only connect the cables you need, rather than having spare ones left to take up space.
