Comparing Power Supplies for Intel Core i3-14100?

I'm looking for a power supply for my new build. Can you guys help me out?

Sure! So you're building an Intel Core i3-14100 system and looking for a PSU? Have you checked the TechReviewer article Choosing the Best Power Supply for Intel's Core i3-14100 CPU about choosing the best power supply for that CPU?

Yeah, I did. It seems like there are some really good options out there. I'm not sure which one to choose though.

Well, based on that article, it's important to consider the wattage range you'll need and also look for a PSU with an 80 PLUS Gold or Platinum rating for better efficiency. Have you thought about the components you're going to use in your system?

I think I want a mid-tier graphics card like an Nvidia RTX 3060, and some SSDs and HDDs for storage. I also need at least two case fans.

Sounds like you'll need around 550 watts of power supply capacity based on the article Choosing the Best Power Supply for Intel's Core i3-14100 CPU. The Corsair SF series might be a good option to consider. They have models in that wattage range with good reviews.

That sounds great! I'll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation, @LedSchwifty.

Make sure you also take into account any future upgrades or components you might add to your system. It's always better to have a little extra headroom in terms of wattage.

Yeah, and don't forget about overclocking if you plan on doing that. You'll need to factor that into your power supply choice as well.

Good points, guys. I'll keep all of this in mind when making my decision. Thanks for the help!
