cooler master is known for good cabinets and not for psus.
What is your budget ?

get corsair tx650 @5.2k

A vx550 @ 4.5k should be more than enough ...IMO, Tx 650 is not needed as OPs cpu will be running at stock ... by the way - tx 650 @ 5.2 k ?? where ??

yeh but may be for future upgrade and yes he didnt told the budget and other requirements so i recommended tx 650 and its available at 5.2k at cost to cost !

A VX550 aint that bad for future upgrades either

Also the TX 650 is available at Cost to Cost for 5.4 k (including VAT) and if it ships to sambhalpur, it would charge ~ 150 more.
>> cost for OP ~ 5550.

first of all i don't know his position (where he lives) and also he didn't told the budget and other requirements for his PSU (he either wants modular , semi - modular or normal one) also he dint told about his upgrades or other things that he has like and coolers , fans , fan controllers ,how many dvdwriters , sound cards ,others !!!!so i recommended it making all these things as my POV

Haha

I know ... guess what - op still hasnt quoted his budget

So its pointless suggesting.

Future Cards will Consume Less Power

. You can also go for CORSAIR GS600 @ 4.5K . This will be the best choice IMO.

cuse of more power!!!!!

If u have read reviews, u will know that more watts doesnt always signify a better psu.
Everywhere they always advise a VX550 over a GS600.

Another example Corsair cx430V2 > VS450.

Generally a CX or a VX series psu is way better than a VS psu of slightly higher rating(wattage).

Similarly, a VX series psu of lower (but comparable) wattage is preffered over the GS(gaming series) psu.

thanks bro and cabinet under 2k or 3k

Get Corsair TX series. 650W will do just fine. VX series has been discontinued afaik. GS600 is another alternative.

Actually at some shops on lamington road, they said that the gaming series(GS) has been discontinued and very few GS models are available and its being replaced by the VX and TX series.

BTW, does anyone know how GTX 660 compares to HD7850 in terms of price and performance?

Don't always believe the shopkeepers, I think that's exactly opposite. VX series is no more, TX series has got a V2 version, and GS series has also been revamped but without the V2 moniker.

At stock, 660 is slightly ahead of 7850, but OCed both are more or less same. Coming to price, online, the 7850 is much cheaper.

Point noted

6k Budget for PSU Hmm... and a GTX 660 costs at-least 14-14.5k - My suggestion is to get a CX500v2 and a HD7870 and for cabinet NZXT Source 210 Elite or Bitfenix Merc Alpha.

^^+1 to that. CX500v2 will be more than enough and is a decent PSU. You won't really need a 650 watt PSU and a 7870 over 660 will help you much more as far as gaming is concerned.

+1 ..

No need to waste money in tx650..

cx500+7870+alpha makes gud sense than tx650+660

Don't want to confuse you with so many options but a Seasonic S12ii 430B would be more than adequate to power it up. A very good quality unit and a good price

Btw Nvidia recommends a 450-watt power supply and the TDP is 140.
