Hello.. I am upgrading my PC and I am confused with which PSU should I use. Corsair or Cooler Master or Antec.?

Specs: AMD FX 6300
GTX 1060 6GB OC
HDD : 500GB x 2 , 1TB x 1
8GB x 2 Hyperx Fury

Anything else I am missing.? BTW I am from India.

I recommend the EVGA 650W G2. That will easily handle any GFX card on the market. It also will offer plenty of headroom for OC'ing with any card/CPU combo. It's also full modular meaning you only connect the cables you need which means cable management will be nice and neat which might help with cooling just a wee bit with those hot Indian summers.

The 550W will also be enough.


do you have a budget? Availability and prices will vary by region. Will you shop at an online store? I can suggest the 520W Seasonic 80+ Bronze or a number of any other PSUs but if you can't afford it or it isn't available where you shop the offer will be made moot. Help us help you.

BTW, the minimum wattage recommended by the manufacturer is 400W. SOme people will buy one with more wattage so they can upgrade parts(GFX card?) in the future without having to upgrade their PSU again.

Usually a 540+ and instead of a FX 6300 If you can Squeeze the money in get an AMD FX 8350, Tons better,
But then, get 600+
Get Corsair or CoolerMaster, Its just a brand, Its totally your prefrence

The 6300 is close enough to a 8350 to not be worth it

generally cooler master psu's are pretty garbage
