Power supply watt recommendation

noahmorgans · Nov 11, 2017

I have put all my parts and such into pcpartpicker and there it says 272w. I know you are supposed to go above that and also leave room for upgrades so I was wondering what you guys would recommend for me.

Budget? The EVGA G3 is a excellent PSU and would be more then enough power for upgrades and overclocking.

If you need to save some money I'd go with the Corsair CXM 550W as it's $35 after MIR and is a decent quality unit.

Thank you, I'd probably go with the Corsair to save money, but how do Mail in Rebates work?

WildCard999 · Nov 11, 2017

It's been awhile since I've done one but if my memory serves me correctly you cut out the UPC from the box and a copy (or email) of the receipt and send it to the manufacturer, then they eventually send you a check.

That's worse than the corsair cx450m/cx550m. Group regulation with poor protection doesn't make it nowadays.

Op, your PC consumes ~100w at a gaming load. A decent 450w would be great.

Also, don't use PSU calculators, they all overestimate. Just look at professional reviews with similar GPU/CPU, like this: https://www.techspot.com/review/1075-best-graphics-cards-2015/page6.html
