Preferred price under £100.

I'd prefer Corsair RMe 750W for 115 pounds, link:

Your PC can handle a 650W unit too, but those are pricier.
Under 100 pounds isn't enough for a good PSU build quality.

It should perform well and offer better quality than Corsair RMe while being significantly more affordable. There are also options with 750w and 850w, which are even more cost-effective than the RM750e.

Thanks for the suggestion. I also came across this link: https://www.currys.co.uk/products/s...mX...goQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds. I use one of these too, but with a higher wattage. A 650W model works fine, and using the Cooler Master PSU Calculator indicates the system power draw is around 400W. With a 2060 Super, it came out to about 352W, which matches its power usage. Most PSU calculators recommend aiming for at least 750W.

Thanks for the idea, the NZXT looks promising and more affordable.

Solid unit would've been my first suggestion if I had discovered it on my own.
Also, I use the same series PSU, but mine is a Focus PX-550 (supplying power for my AMD build). The other two builds run on Seasonic PRIME TX-650.

It's worth noting, PX this might be improved. Could you tell me what CPU and GPU you're using in your AMD build? I also have some questions about the 650W spec for a 5600X and 4060 Ti—do you have any concerns? I recall the 30 series sometimes experienced significant power spikes, which could lead to much higher consumption during short bursts.

NZXT V Gold 2022 offers superior features compared to the Focus GX/PX. It provides a better platform, enhanced fan performance, improved fan control, higher-quality cables and connectors, and a 50-degree rating versus the 40-degree standard.
