Introduction
We have seen an abundant amount of 1000+ watt power supplies hit the market recently. But is that considered overkill? Or is just needed? Well that's the first thing you need to look into when purchasing a power supply, the amount of power that your computer current pulls. If it pulls 500 watts, then it get 600-700 watt power supply, always leave room for upgrading components at a later point in time. The next thing you need to look for is the power efficiency of that particular power supply, most of the newer power supplies all have the 80+ certification, which will allow you pull the amount of power your computer needs and no more. Following that there are some minor nit picky things that you may want, like a modular power supply, to help keep your wires organized.
