System will not be used for gaming. Most demanding tasks it will see is large database queries. Will not be overclocking anything.
I'm wondering if the Corsair CX400W is more than enough power or if I'd be pushing its limits and should stick with the HX650W linked below. Ideally, I'd like the system to be as quiet as possible.
Oh fine - if the CX400W is fine given all the above would it still be ok if I overclocked the processor. Who knows maybe I'll catch that bug (hopefully not)
Thanks!
