There isn't any single part on that system for which I don't have the required spare part.
PSU TIER LIST 2018 REDDIT FULL
But I swapped the GFX card with a new identical one, with the behavior persisting in such a way that my attention is on the PSU.īecause I've made sure to keep a running household server and I've got two backup computers to do the accounting and banking, I've put my "Baby" aside so I can get some other things done before I give it full attention on a clean workbench. There had been a graphics malfunction and crash just a week before that. It was up and running tip-top until July, when I had symptoms that would suggest insufficient power to the PCIE connections - particularly the graphics card. I think the unit waiting for repair likely needs a new PSU, because damage may have been done when I had my static charge accident in late January. This focuses the mind and will marvelously if you've grown dependent on a computer for practical things, like accounting, banking, document archival, communication and all general information.
PSU TIER LIST 2018 REDDIT UPGRADE
I can't upgrade and replace as often as I used to, under the circumstance of always building my own. I've mentioned elsewhere that my sig computer went down for the second time this year, after almost 5 years of stellar service. I'm getting old slowing down, providing care to two disabled people. These days, it's hard to keep up so much. At least a few of the models in the OP's list are likely rebadged Seasonics.Ĭlick to expand.There was a time, perhaps five years ago, when I had plenty of time to do this casual research for things like "PSU factory origins". Somewhere there was - and may still be - a list of all the manufacturers and the actual origins of their badged and branded products. Ha! I was going to pose a speculation or question. Yes, they cost between $150 and $250, but with 10-year warranties, Seasonic reputation and personal experience, I believe it's the wisest choice I can make. I buy Seasonic Titanium fully modular units. I suppose I won't feel guilty sending the PSU in under RMA for replacement, but like I said, I think it's a longer-term outcome of my vaping-pen disaster. I think it is related to my vaping-pen disaster that borked my motherboard last January. True, I suspect that my recent down-for-repair situation with my sig system is due to the PSU going south after 4 years, but I don't think it was just a defect in the PSU that caused it. But when I build a system for myself, I don't limit the budget for a PSU. I've bought units in the last five years that weren't Seasonic and which were priced under $100. At least a few of the models in the OP's list are likely rebadged Seasonics. I found some models under $100 can you recommend 2-3 from these or you can also add your choice if you know any better model.Ĭlick to expand.Ha! I was going to pose a speculation or question. I looked some models today but they also don't have that connector. Also my current PSU didn't had 4pin EATX12V for extra power to CPU. So even my next GPU won't suck more then 200W. I might buy a new GPU like RTX 3060 or 3060ti in future once price gets back to normal. I think I should get wattage between 500W to 750W. I am looking for new PSU as my current Corsair VX550 PSU lasted 12 years.
