Hey all!

So I have recently upgraded to an ASUS GTX 750TI. It runs games absolutely amazingly! The only issue I have is that every now and then the game freezes for a bit and then continues again. This is very annoying. When I put my hand near my PSU it seems to be extremely hot! My PSU is quite old and gives off 350 Watts. I had to purchase a PSI Express converter for my new GPU to run.

I was thinking about upgrading to a 'Corsair Builder Series CXM 600W'.

Will upgrading my PSU solve this issue?

Or if you guys could recommend me some good PSU's I would be very grateful!

A 600W psu is overboard for a 750ti. You just need a minimum of a 300W psu for the 750ti. Unless your planning for future upgrades. If you have another psu lying around with +300w psu, try to use that and see if that fixes your problem.

Seasonic is one of the best psu brand out there. Corsair Builder Series are for budget oriented psu's but it's good enough for what you're running.
