Suggest Me a Decent PSU

[Don_1]

I am currently using Coolmasters 350W Elite power psu.......recently my graphic card went kaput.....GTS 250 was the one i was using.....

Upon research i came 2 know that my PSU wattage was low for my config....

My budget would be
1.GPU : 5-6k
2. PSU - 3k-3.3 k

I have Intel q9400 2.66 GHZ processor and EQ45M mobo and 2gb Ram.....Please suggest.....

@ OP - for the gpu : get HD6750 @ 6k or HD6770 @ ~6.5k
For the PSU : Get SeaSonic S12II 520 @ ~3.3k

1+ for HD6770 & op can also go for FPS SII 500 @2.5K also upgrade ur ram to 4GB

Any of the above two config.s will do.

 

[Don_1]

HD6670 is a good gpu as well and you can find one around ~5k but considering your budget getting HD6770 @ ~6.5-7k + Corsair CX430v2 @ 2.2k makes more sense

 

[saswat23]

For PSU the other option at same budget is FSP SAGA-II 500W.
