So I'm close to getting this rig done but I'm still not sure which power supply to use. I already own a Corsair CX500 but I don't know if I should upgrade to a 650w psu. Specs (not including the psu): CPU: Core i5 3570 Motherboard: Asus P8H77 -M LE (I know, uATX board but I have a limited budget) GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance LP (4GB x 2) Storage: Seagate Momentus XT 750GB SSHD / Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD / Crucial M4 128GB SSD Fans: Cooler Master Sickleflow LED 120mm (x1) Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B5ST Case: Cooler Master 430 Elite
Probably 650w just because you have a lot of HDD/SDD stuff going on. I wouldn't recommend a power supply that isn't at least bronze or higher.
