PSU advice

[Will5757]

I just got gifted a used strix 1080, and I don't think my cx 500 is going to be up to the task long term, I have a old coolermaster 700 in my old system sitting in the closet, but it's freaking OLD man, like 7+ years, so that's also out i think.

I'm currently running a i5 4690k, oc'd to 4.6ghz@1.2vcore, 3 hdd's, 1 SSD and 2 sticks of ram. I will be overclocking the 1080 as well, though i'm not planning to push hard, I just go for the easy overclocks, maybe bump the voltage\power limit a bit and go till it get's unstable on regular air cooling.

My options are somewhat limited due to my remote location, amazon.ca has both the best prices, and options the best I can tell.

I'd like to keep the price down while also getting a quality long lasting PSU, I'm not adverse to spending money on quality, just to spending money on crap that isn't performance\longevity related (don't need no stinkin RGB) Semimodular would be nice, fully modular unneeded.

I'm also looking for something I won't have to replace in the near future, the 1080 is probably staying for quite some time, but I may be upgrading my cpu\ram\mobo, still a gaming centric rig though, so nothing crazy. I figure 550-650 watts should cover anything i'm going to want to run in the next 5-10 years. I could be wrong here, feel free to let me know.

all prices i'm quoting here are canadian btw.

80 bucks get's me a
evga 550b3
650bq
600br

100-110 is a longer list,
evga 650gq
750b3
TT smart pro650
Corsair tx650m
tx750m
rm650x
Silverstone 700w https://amzn.to/2BQS2SL
Seasonic SSR-550FX

120-130$
evga 550g2
650g2
750b1
750g1+
650g1+ (this was on sale for 80 just before i left home for 2 days...i shoulda just jumped on it @ 80)
Silverstone ST60F-PB 600W

current top pick for each category based on the research i've done myself would be the EVGA bq650, Corsair RM650x, EVGA 650g2. I'm leaning towards the rm650x.
There are many other similar models, but i wanted to weed some out before posting here, some are due to price oddities (the rm550x costs more then the 650x), some because they just struck me as lower quality then other options already on the list at the same price.

Sorry if this post is a bit long, wanted to make sure i covered all the relevant information, and thanks for the advice in advance

From that list I’d definitely go with the RMx, the BQ is... not great and the G2 whilst good, is not better than an RMx and therefore is not worth spending more cash on...

Thanks for that, I did go through with the rmx. Funny thing, i get gifted a card worth about 500 (used card, used market price) then i turn around and spend 900 more on shit to support it (new psu, which was cheap compared to the new monitor). After all, why have a 1080 if your only gaming at 1080p

Well gonna try to trooper out the Cooler Master dog it out. quite higher rated for that, should hold up some time. That one should buddy. That is a good unit.

What part of Canada? I have 100+ review samples left on my shelf taking up way too much space, including an NZXT E650 brand new in the shrink wrap. I'd do $100 shipped for it, maybe $120 if you want the 850W version instead, which I also still have.

Shipping cost shouldn't be too awful from Sask, one hopes.

shipping from sask would be pretty bad probably, also i already jumped on the rm650x fro 100 shipping included
