• Replacing PSU
    4 replies, posted
I'd like to get [url=http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FG9FWF8?psc=1]this[/url] as a replacement PSU for another computer, right now its using a PSU from Tecnoware (FAL550FS) at 550W. I'm going to move the GTX 650 Ti to this secondary computer, while I'll get something else for myself, I'd like to get a new PSU just to be safe, seeing as I've never bought this PSU myself, and I'm kinda worried about it. Does anyone know if the PSU I found is okay? I'm not sure what else I'd need to check for. [t]http://i.imgur.com/IidtA6l.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/uGFdI1m.png[/t]
It's good but probably too good for your needs. I stand by the CX500 myself, it's reasonably priced and very solid.

This one saves me a ton of money, I might go with the 600W version just to be safe. Thanks.

If I had the actual paper for when my parents bought the components I'd be able to calculate it a bit more easily. Should I post more data about the specs this PC has? [editline]19th January 2016[/editline] Oops, set the wrong number of CPU cores, yeah that PSU you posted is probably fine, I'll check the specs again and then order the PSU, thanks. [editline]19th January 2016[/editline] Checked just in case, nevermind it does have 4 cores, shite. I'll have to do more research tomorrow, sorry, first time doing this.
I wouldn't recommend a CX series PSU for a gaming rig at all. [URL="http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003BIEOCI/?tag=pcp0f-21"]Get this[/URL]. It's more than enough, trust me. Your rig could run on a good 450w PSU, but the one I linked is the cheapest high quality one.

I feel as if I'll probably be happy with this (I posted it in the OP before). [url]http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FG9FWF8[/url] I'll look into alternatives as long as they ship here though.
