Im looking for a power supply for my new build. I will have a gtx 1060 and a core i5 6400, no overclocking, used for gaming. I've heard about the tiers of the psu's thats why im asking you guys. The power supply i was originally going with was a rosewill glacier 600m or a corsair vs650 as i saw them being on the tier 3 in the ranking i was a bit worried if i should get a better psu. Also what is the recommended amount of wattage for this type of system gtx 1060 + i5 6400, 8gb ram, 1ssd 1hdd, i will be overclocking gpu.
Best psu under £60

450 Watt will run that just fine.

I would get better quality but a bit over budget.

Try to spend a few more bucks and get a i5 6500 processor you will be glad you did.

XFX ProSeries 450W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply (£45.91 @ Amazon UK)
Total: £45.91
high quality, long lifespan, only downside it's not modular.
and yes a 6500 would be indeed preferable

this is one of the lowest quality junk supplies that are sold under a brand name
please don't recommend it as it provides not only bad quality but also bad value at that price
the updated version Zerk2012 suggested, the CXM450/CXM550 is decent, but this is garbage
