So I'm building an budget gaming system, and I'm stuck on which PSU to buy, I was looking at an evga 600 gaming 100-w1-0600-k3, but am just not sure if it will fit my needs

the parts I've already purchased and what I plan are as follows

Mobo: msi 970 gaming
Cpu: fx8350
Cooler: Noctua NH-D14
Graphics: xfx rx480 rs 4gb
Hdds: 240gb ssd, 1th hdd
Standard atx case with 2 large case fans, I plan on buying 2 more fans

I plan on overclocking it slightly, nothing to major as I only plan on playing Esports titles, maybe Bf1 and call of duty.

So could someone recommend 1, not wanting to break the bank either around £50 great British pounds

Thanks in advance

I personally own a Corsair RMx 850, which is one of their newer PSUs and I have to honestly say its really good and super quiet, no issues whatsoever, they are a bit pricy, but you can get one now from newegg for $80 for 650W, which is more than enough for you. EVGA are also good PSUs for budget builds. Avoid the corsair CX series, they have a terrible coil whine issue.

P.S. PSU is the only part of your build on which you shouldn't cheap out, you don't want one to fail on you.

I'm rocking a rm100i myself
For sli and I had a 750 watt my previous rig. That was around 150 dollars I could've saved if I got an 850 watt 6 years ago.
