Recommendations for new PSU

Lolcaked101 · Aug 18, 2017

I currently have an i5-7500 and an ASUS OC RX-460 2gb. I am looking to upgrade to a GTX-1060 but I am not sure if I need to upgrade my power supply. My current one is a Cybertron SL-F500. I am also looking for a cheap/decent power supply that would work well if I were to upgrade to the 1060

Never heard of the Cybertron, so it's probably an off-brand junk unit. And you'd be smart in upgrading your PSU before adding a 1060.

While the S12II is a bit of a dated platform, it's still a quality unit - and a steal at $30 (after rebate)

For something a little more modern, this is $56.... again, after rebate.
