Which PSU to buy? (Tacens, Corsair, Be Quiet) around 100€

[fernandojsg]

Hi all!

I've just bought a new computer and i need to change my old PSU and buy a new one.
My computer configuration is:

CORE2DUO E7400 2.8GHZ 3MB
4GB DDR2 KINGSTON 1033
9800GTX 1GB
2xSATA2 500GB Seagate
1xSATA 200GB Maxtor
1DVD

I need to choose between the following price list because I should buy in the same shop where i got the components, so that's why I also include the price.
I chose that ones because I wanted something somehow silent, and also around 100€ max.

Thank you very much in advance!

BeQuiet E6 Energy Plus4.0 650W (116€)
BeQuiet Straight 600 W (100€)
Tacens VALEO II700W (106€)
Tacens RADIX III 720 SMART (86€)
Corsair TX 650W (98€)
Corsair HX620W Modular 620W (130€)

Out of the ones listed, Corsair TX650 for sure.

You could easily run that system with a good 400W.

Generally speaking people overestimate power requirements for their systems. It happens all the time here. Since you're only going to be using a dual core cpu and one 9800GTX card a 400 - 450 watt psu is probably all you will need.

Corsair consistently earns high marks in technical reviews and comparisons. Corsair and PC Power & Cooling are the two brands often recommended by veteran posters at this forum.
