I need some help with upgrading my PSU as the pin counts and connection types etc have changed greatly since I last built a gaming PC back when the Q6600 was the fastest thing smoking...........
My build:
AMD FX-8350 4GHz processor w/ Hyper 212 Evo cooler
16Gb DDR3 RAM
ASRock 970A-G/3.1 motherboard
1Tb Western Digital HDD
GTX 1050ti 4GB graphics card
ThermalTake Versa N21 Snow Edition case w/3 blue LED 120mm fans
The original build came with a 430W power supply and since Ive upgraded the CPU from the original FX-6300 to a FX-8350 and added the Hyper 212 Evo cooler, I feel as if 430W is close the the "red line" for my current setup.................. I look all over Newegg/Amazon for power supplies and see tons with different connectors etc............... Im looking to upgrade to a 500W to step back from the line slightly and Ive been looking at this one in particular............
https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-WHITE-Power-Supply-100-W1-0500-KR/dp/B00H33SFJU
and was wondering if it would have all the connectors i need and it actually pushes out 500W unlike most other PSUs.............. if this one wont work, can anyone suggest a good 500W-600W PSU that would have everything I need as far as connectors etc?
Thank you in advance for the help and info,
Stephen
