Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
Only thing I would recommend is getting a GS600or any 550W+ Model. 430W isn't exactly that future proof. Also Seasonic are good PSUs but may create RMA issue later due to scarcity.

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
actually sorry abt creating a new thread.. so u say everything is OK except PSU ? i m planning to get the parts in 3 - 4 days from ritchie street. and from my throrough research i found that 7850 with ivy bridge CPU requires only 300 watts max , even when the GPU is OC'd. So do i really need a 500w ? trying to save some cash man
G2222HDL is around what ... 8k now ?

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
hmmm isnt the seasonic 430w better than corsair cx 500 ? seasonic is 80 + Bronze.. And im surely not going to crossfire.. And why are u suggesting 500 when 430 is more than enough for a ivyB and 7850 ? If im making a mistake tell me.. i researched a lot about this and found 430w was more than enough.
even if the 7850 is heavily OC'd, the system would require a total of 26 amps on +12v. (Maximum). seasonic 430w can do 30A

Get Corsair GS600 or Seasonic SII 520W. Rest seems fine, no idea about mobo though.

Or Get CORSAIR CX500 V2 @ 3.5K
Dont even think of buying CORSAIR GS500 from Ritchie Street , it is priced @ 4.3K .Intel Core I5 2400 | Intel DH67CL B3 | Corsair Value Select 2x 4 GB | Seagate Barracuda 500 GB HDD | Asus DVD RW | CM Elite 310 | Corsair GS600 | Logitech MK200 | Creative Speakers | Samsung S20B300 | V Guard UPS | Intel HD 2000 | Nokia Lumia 520 |

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
guys i think a 430w is already on the "safer side". so im going with the 430w . i ll change my mind if i get strong advice why the 430 is not suitable for an IvyB with HD 7850. I wont be upgrading this PC for a long time
or the cx500v2 as it also costs about 3.5k

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
You never know when you might want to add something more to your system. Requirements change and so will the power usage.
Better safe than sorry. Take a 500w psu.

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
I meant that if you dont get the BENQ model , you can opt for the DELL.

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
whats wrong with cx500v2 ?

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
^^ Do point out where I said that
.
I would choose the GS series over Seasonic S12II counterparts. I still wish I could recommend Seasonic but unfortunately some of the people's experience during RMA and also confirmation from a reliable dealer that I know have confirmed it and started to decrease stocking Seasonic PSU.

Re: Finishing my rig. Please help me
GS is a better quality than the CX. CX is the entry level for corsair.
GS has more connectors and little more amp on a few lines.Need Help :Spoiler:
