parts: fx 6300, msi 970 gaming motherboard,gtx 960 4gb (or r9 380 4gb still unsure). i’m not sure what wattage the power supply needs, thinking about around 600w since i plan to overclock the fx-6300 to 4.5ghz with hyper evo 212 plus cooler and possibly a bit of overclocking on the GPU. maybe buying an overclocked version would work. i’m aiming for a power supply cost between 50 and 65 euros.

The lepa MX-F1 is a tier 4 model and performs poorly, while this EVGA is a tier 1 and ranks among the top three units I would ever purchase.

The G2 is my preferred choice, but options from tier one or two are acceptable. You should aim for a tier one PSU if you have the budget.
