In need of PSU

[mtjdavis]

Hi all,

Im in need of a new PSU. I've currently got an Enermax infiniti 650w, but its on its way out now.

My current specs are:

Intel C2D E8400
Asus Maximus Formula
Powercolor 4870hd
1 Sata drive, 1 IDE drive

I was told i might be able to use a lower wattage and have everything work fine overclocked ? Around 550w or so ? Is this the case ?

Thanks.

not sure what wattage is right or you, but id go with this seeing as you were fine with 650W before, and this on one week only

Below £80 would be great, below £70 even better.

In that case i would seriously recommend this:

If you want to save money and modular isn't imperative then go for this, its easily powerful enough:

Is there any realistic difference between the OCZ + BeQuiet + Corsair ?

Thanks for the replies.

Will this do ok ?

Does the lower power rating matter ?
