corsair will be the best choice for you brother
you wont need more then 400watt corsair at this time but for future get 550watt or 650watt corsair (non modular) power supply

^ yes corsair is much better choice
a corsair 400watt is also enough for you
but if you want some upgrades in gpu then 550watt is good

^ brother the power supply looks good but i suggest you do not get this power supply and add little more money and get xigmatek 400watt psu
btw converter don't make any sort of problem

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
