Hello!
I am a very first time computer builder and trying to figure out the last part of my build: the power supply. I am unsure as to the wattage I should even look for. Using the parts I have already chosen, I was given a rating of 480 watts from the Newegg calculator (which I have read is a bit too broad to be accurate). If anyone could please help me figure this out, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Here are the parts I plan on getting:
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Deneb
Gigabyte GA-970A-D3
Corsair Vengenance 8 GB
GIGABYTE GV-N650OC-2GI GeForce GTX 650 2GB
Western Digital 500 GB Greenpower
+a standard DVD/RW that I found in another computer
