PSU Needed

[marnu123]

Hi

I am buying a new system and would like your advice on my power supply.
System configuration:
Intel Cold Lake H67 Motherboard
Intel Core i5 2500 Processor
Kingston 4GB DDR 3 1333mhz Ram
LG 24x DVD Rom
Seagate 2TB 5900rpm
GTX 460/560 Graphics Card(don't know which one yet, looking at value for money)

Your help is greatly appreciated.
Happy Easter.

650W psu from corsair and cool master will work very fine for your system.

Make sure you should get efficiency of 80%and above certification engraved on the psu product box.Which will give you a better power supply output then non-engraved one.

If you are in the UK try this its a great offer on a top quality psu from Antec.

If in the US of America try this

That is probably one of the best 650w PSU's around.

Another, extremely well made PSU. 650w

I would not go with cooler master power supplies, ever. Go with brands like Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, and Silverstone.

R937 is about $80. I plan for about $50 since I am on a tight budget
