Hello, I'chiliad looking to purchase a new PSU every bit I'm 100% sure mine is on it'due south way out.

This defenseless my center due to the depression toll tag: http://www.ebuyer.com/630119-evga-500w-80-ability-supply-3-twelvemonth-warranty-100-w1-0500-kr

I know the quondam saying, a cheap power supply is not worth it, but because information technology's from EVGA, information technology must be of some value.

I'll be gaming for considering lengths of fourth dimension and my build will consist of a Phenom II X4 925 + R9 270X. Volition this PSu be plenty for this or will the White power rating come back to bite me in the a**?

If so would this PSU be able to ability my current setup? Phenom II X4 925 + 7770?

Furthermore is it true a PSU going bang tin also take out your CPU/Mobo/GPU? Or is that a Myth? I enquire considering it has a iii year warranty which is nice, but isn't prissy if it takes my mobo/CPU out too.

Thanks,

Primordial Genesis

almost EVGA PSUs arent that good.

the one you linked is almost as good every bit a cx serial corsair

merely their supernova series is reputable.....

and 500w will also be a bit of a stretch for a phenom and an r9 270x.

but for the 7770 build information technology volition practise well.

Hello, I'k looking to buy a new PSU as I'1000 100% sure mine is on information technology's fashion out.

This caught my eye due to the low cost tag: http://www.ebuyer.com/630119-evga-500w-80-ability-supply-three-yr-warranty-100-w1-0500-kr

I know the erstwhile saying, a cheap ability supply is not worth it, but considering information technology's from EVGA, it must be of some value.

I'll be gaming for considering lengths of time and my build volition consist of a Phenom Ii X4 925 + R9 270X. Will this PSu be plenty for this or will the White power rating come back to bite me in the a**?

If so would this PSU be able to ability my current setup? Phenom II X4 925 + 7770?

Furthermore is information technology true a PSU going blindside can also take out your CPU/Mobo/GPU? Or is that a Myth? I inquire considering it has a 3 year warranty which is nice, only isn't nice if information technology takes my mobo/CPU out as well.

Thank you,

Hi - as baba said EVGA has some good PSU's, however, that unit of measurement isn't one of the ones I'd qualify as practiced. The OEM for it is HEC, and as a general rule of pollex that's an OEM to avoid.

Too, a skilful quality modern design 500w PSU is plenty for a arrangement with one R9 270x.

Can yous stretch a scrap? A much better option is;

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/mr/ariacouk/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9

Yes, a PSU tin can accept other components with it when it fails. Decent quality modern design PSU'due south will have
protection features that should shut the unit downward before that occurs. No proper noun and/or inferior congenital
units will lack some or most of those protection features..

This is the i you lot want:

500B version.

http://www.ebuyer.com/546583-evga-500w-bronze-psu-100-b1-0500-kr

Haha I picked out this PSu about 2 days ago where information technology was £30, and the bronze was £50, so I should have probably checked again , no brainer for £5 extra.

If the White is mediocre/not skilful, and equivalent to the CX Series Corsair, What does that mean the CX Series Corsair is like? Reason I ask is I was led to believe the CX Serial Corsair are pretty solid for around £l - £60.

I know I'm going on abit lol, I actually appreciate the assistance so far but I have just 2 more questions:

How quiet is the XFX PSU's? The Corsair RM serial I accept heard are very quiet,which is why I ask.

Secondly if the RM series is a Gilded PSU, why is information technology so inferior to the XFX?

And errr Where can I purchase HX serial PSU'south? Amazon don't seem to have them and if they do, they're off dodgy people at ridiculous prices.

Too would you purchase a Refurbished PSU? (manufacturer) Browse are selling loads of corsair ones.

Also what is the GS series like?

No refurbs , GS 600 and 800 are decent.

The GS serial is meliorate than RM? Surprised since GS is bronze and RM is gold.

Any idea where to buy a HX series PSU?

Ah okay Thanks so much for your help.

You know I've always said the best things are made in Nippon. XFX PSU's The Nissan Skyline GTR. But a few of many.

Thank you mate haha.
