What Power Supply Should I Get?

[yams_22]

I'm looking for a power supply that can handle a GTX 560 Ti, i5 3570k.

How much power should be enough? I'm looking for a PSU in the $50-60 range, and very reliable. Modular would be nice but its not necessary.

Currently running my new pc build i just finished yesterday, Specs:

Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with Upgraded USB 3.0

ASUS DVD Burner Black SATA Model DRW-24B3ST/BLK/G/AS

Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR

CORSAIR Gaming Series GS800 800W ATX12V v2.3 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC High Performance

MSI Z77A-G45 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

GTX 560 ti 2gb

i-5 3570k intel cpu



As you can see it took around 800w. You will need 750w - 850w and use this:

$69.99 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817339002
is the best i could find for the money.

But i recommend that you invest atleast $100 in a good psu

All that you need for that simple 1 card build is a good 500W to 550W PSU.

Here's one that's good and won't break the bank. $50 and free shipping.

Antec BP550 Plus 550W Continuous Power ATX12V V2.2 80 PLUS Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply

ill give you some options that are modular and close to your budget

rosewill hive 550w (same platform as the OCZ ZS series) - solid PSU for the budget, well reviewed, and modular
$70 - 15% + free shipping = $50 out the door
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182131&Tpk=rosewill%20hive%20550

OCZ ZS 550w, same PSU as the rosewill above but not modular
$79 - $15 instant rebate + free shipping = $65 out the door - $25 MIR = $40 after rebate check
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341047

a step up from there is the pc power & cooling 600w - good PSU with a seasonic platform, well reviewed and modular
$90 - 15% + free shipping = $76.50 out door - $20 MIR = $56.50 after rebate check
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703036&Tpk=pc%20power%20and%20cooling%20600w

there is also a 500w version of the PC P&C above but I would personally go for the 600w version since the price would be so close

Thanks for these suggestions.
I was going to go for the Rosewill Hive 550w however they are currently out on Newegg, and I am ordering all of the items tonight... I picked up my mobo and cpu @ microcenter today... I was originally going to go for a ModXStream Pro 600w, they are $42 with rebate. Is this a good PSU?
or this:

Seasonic M12II 520w

LOL, you do NOT need 750-850w, more like 550.
