So do i get the 450w which kinda seems little bit close to me OR I get the 600w which it says to me is too much... I have no idea what to do XD Click to expand... I'd go with the 600w just to allow for future upgrades.

W Wozza63 Biblical Poster Oct 21, 2012 #3 that 440w includes a 20% allowance so the actual maximum power usage would be 440/120*100=367W Remember that its unlikely that you will ever get to that maximum power anyway

vanthus Member Resting in Peace Oct 21, 2012 #4 The 450W PSU will be fine,20% allowance is quite a lot,but if you do upgrade get the corsair 650W PSU which can actually work out cheaper than the 600W. Last edited: Oct 21, 2012
