Need to Replace my PSU

My PSU (Antec EA-650) died last night and I've been searching through amazon what to get now. My computer draws around 550W at the wall when in full load. I want something that is quality but not overkill as money is tight at the moment. Basically I won't compromise my PC with some cheap noname PSU but I certainly don't want to go all out and buy a 1200W platinum PSU that I won't ever use to its full capacity.

Currently I run an Ivy Bridge i5 3570k (At the wall my idle draw is around 87W), 1 EVGA SC GTX780 not overclocked, 1 HD 7950 mining 24/7, undervolted and running around stock speeds, 2 x 1TB HDDs, 1 240GB SSD.

I don't plan to overclock my cards, except for a demanding game in which case only the GTX 780 will be used. When gaming I close all the mining programs.

I appreciate the help and if I need to specify anything else please let me know.

Looking forward to all your recommendations :biggrin:
 
Neo Eco (C?) 620 was $35 AR earlier this week or last week. Too bad you missed that.

Rosewill Capstone 650 might be a good choice of PSU, it has a 7-year warranty.
 
Thanks for all the replies, after weighing the options I went with the Rosewill Capstone 650. There are so many PSU brands out there, so I really appreciate you all helping me make a good choice.
