While PSUs could arguably be the most boring part to shop for when specifying a new build, they are one of the most important. As many have discovered, trying to run high-end components with a PSU that delivers questionably consistent power results in any number of intermittent problems. It’s not just a matter of enough power, you need a power supply that has solid rails that don’t fall below ATX specifications.
To help those trying to find a decent PSU, this guide from KitGuru is a good place to start. They discuss the different types of wiring and some rough guides on how high the wattage should be in your PSU. They also describe what the maximum ripple from the PSU should be for each of the watts your PSU provides and the slightly smaller range they are looking for.
They come with several different PSU recommendations in a variety of total wattsif you just want to skip to the end.
