Advice on what PSU to get (quiet and reliable)

Last response: in Components
Share

Hi all, I'm looking for advice on my rig that I'm building. I have decided on most of these parts, left only PSU

Mobo/CPU - Core i5 750 + Asus P7P55D Pro
GPU - Radeon HD 5870
CPU cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212+
RAM - Team Elite 1333MHz DDR3 CL9 x2
Storage - WD Caviar Black 1TB
Chassis - CoolMaster CM690
Monitor - Viewsonic 23.6" VX2423WM

I will not be going crossfire (single GPU).
I going to overclock CPU (from 2.66GHz to about 3.2 GHz)

I'm looking for a PSU that is quiet and reliable. Not going to pinch pennies on PSU but neither do I want to splurge unnecessarily. Was looking at Andyson F650 and COsair HX520. Are these quiet and capable of supporting my rig comfortably?

Thanks!

the new ocz z series is deathly quiet and efficient


Just abit overpowered for my needs. THink the smallest one is 850W. And quite a pretty penny at that =S

I wish I won the lottery, haha

BeQuiet Dark Power 650W is worth buying... very quiet and stable, and more importantly very efficient too.

OCZ are decent enough - just put one in my i7 rig and cant fault it.

Best solution

yes it is
• Ultra-high efficiency @ *** almost 87%. *** <-- nice
• Very stable voltages with no "over-volting".
• One of the most silent units
• Excellent modular cable system.
• Good Package and accessories
