Antec VP650P 650 watts psu compatible with Haswell processor?
I am planning to buy a new PC with Asus Z97 chipset mobo, Intel i5-4670K Haswell processor, 4gb RAM and Radeon R9 270X graphics card. Since this a heavy build I was looking at the Antec VP650P 650Watt power supply, whether it will support my CPU and video card or not. I have heard that this PSU is not compatible with Haswell processors, if this is true then what are my other options to grab another Power Supply? Thanks for any information.

You should get the Antec VP650P V2 650 Watts PSU which is compatible with the new generation of Haswell processors. I was previously using another model Power Supply and had overclocked everything from CPU to RAM in my system for gaming but my system used to crash more than often, so I purchased this new V2 version of the Antec PSU and it worked pretty well. I have been using this PSU for more than 4 months now and there is no system crashing at all.
