Need new PSU
Hello!

So i need a new power supply for the GTX 970 i ordered, my budget is ~150€, 200€ is already too much.

I was thinking about Corsair GS700 is it better than cx750? Is it enough for my build?

Here is my current build:

Motherboard: Asus Gryphon Z87
Power Supply: Chieftec A-135 series APS-600SB, 400-650W
CPU: Intel i7 4770k
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U9B
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 660 Gaming Edition
Memory : Team Elite DDR3 2gb(x4) 1333mhz
SSD: Samsung 840 PRO 128gb
HDD: ATA ST31000528AS SCSI 1TB
Case: Fractal Design R4

Thank you in advance and have a good day.

would Seasonic s12ii 620W be good, it's easier for me to buy it.?


yes that will actually be a better buy than the one i suggested .. as seen here http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1804779/power-supp...

the psu you mentioned is a tier 2 certified and efficient psu that will be just fine for a high end system


Thank you. i ordered it. only bad thing then is that it's not modular, thankfully i can hide the cables in the side of my case.
