FSP everest series 500W 3.5k i think
Gp 650 Al series....If u can compromise a bit on warranty.

Only CM and Corsair have 5 years warranty
Cm RP 460w 3.6k
Vx 450 4k
 
If u OC the Core i5 above 3.5Ghz, the processor will end up consuming twice it's usual power...and i think u might risk frying ur psu with a 400W PSU..

minimum Corsair VX450W @ 4.1k
 
Can anybody of knowledge of psu start a psu advisor thread? I mean you people stress on it being the main component of the rig but still no one has brought it out.
 
Ooops yes, thanks :)

Seasonic 380W is also damn good. Better than Cx400 for entry level 24x7 usage PCs.

thank you very much Rockfella..

i said this because when i was out buying my first rig or "GAMING RIG" to be honest then i was about to buy a CM600 watt PSU then my friend suggested me to go for Corsair even though it was damn expensive..but i don't regret that decision..:hap5:

i bought a TX650 for 6.8k & didn't bought the GPU by that time..

Just to tell you all even if you decide to buy a rig or PC worth 30k do include a Good PSU coz i know how much it pains when your other components blow off..

recently spended 3k to repair an old P4 system..

atleast buy a Corsair CX400 for 3k..:hap2:

I will be upgrading to Athlon II X4 620 and HD5770 1gb, will gigabyte suffice? I may even upgrade to something more power hungry, will CX400 be a better option?

The Corsair indeed. The Gigabyte 460W is a rebadged FSP power supply originally rated at 400W. :)

CX400 gives 483.9 W max power, how much can gigabyte give? Corsair 400w is also rated at 400w.
