Which PSU should I buy?
in Desktops ·
Look, nobody ever said this rig was built for hardcore gaming. I already had some parts lying around, and for the stuff I actually had to buy (pre-tax, obviously), my options were pretty limited, so this is just what ended up on the desk.
Specifically, I’ve had this GPU sitting around for a year—never even touched it—so I figured, why not use this instead of that crappy integrated graphics on the motherboard?
The whole setup is mostly for coding and doing some light video and photo editing, which is why I went with 16GB of RAM and an SSD.
I’m definitely not touching my current case or power supply since they’re ancient—we're talking 7 or 8 years old. I might be able to squeeze the case out of retirement, but the PSU? No way. That's why I'm hitting you guys up for some solid recommendations on a new case and a reliable power supply.
Thanks for the help, everyone.
