Best PSU brand?
PSUs without visible brand are usually the best.
>>109861581There's no reason to buy anything but Seasonic.
>>109861581Seasonic and superflower
i bet it was set to 110v
>>109861781doesn't even have a switch for thateven if it had and it was the fuse should blow not the PSU
>>109861581I got some random chink 500W PSU from aliexpress and I've had it running at 80% of max load continuously for 3 days so far and there's been no problem
for me, it's Seasonic
>>109861581I only buy Seasonic and have done so almost 30 years. I've never had one fail yet. So either I'm do, or they're great PSUs.
>>109861581Any with japanese capacitors and 10 year warranty.
>>109861737>>109861743>>109862064>>109862093+1 for SeasonicCan't go wrong
>>109862256>measly 10 yearscute
>>109861581All brands make shit budget psus. Don't blindly trust a brand name. Many are just rebadges in fact. Seasonic, bequiet!, Corsair, Coolermaster, Fractal Design, FSP, Phanteks, Super Flower, Thermaltake, NZXT, all have good high end models. Even the AIBs like MSI, Gigabyte, Asus, and Asrock have some good high end psus.
>>109862300There's like 3 actual companies who make good PSUs out of the ones you listed, rest just order from those 3 and rebrand. Plus a bunch of smaller no-name manufactures who make shit budget units.
i liked my be quiet psu before the bearing got fucked and i replaced the fan with arctic p12 after a year of pissing me off>>109862318>>109862300you dont buy BRANDS you buy PRODUCTS ideally you look at the MEASUREMENTS and base your decision on that trusting any company blindly is goy behavior
>>109862300Very important: most brands don't make their own guts.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1akCHL7Vhzk_EhrpIGkz8zTEvYfLDcaSpZRB6Xt6JWkc/edit?usp=sharingSeasonic makes their own guts. So does FSP. Mine is an FSP Hydro G Pro ATX 3.0 1000W and it's rock solid. While Seasonic shills aren't wrong about their quality, it's not like they're the only manufacturer out there you can't go wrong with, and even then Seasonic had their duds. Corsair has plenty of solid units despite being CWT rebrands.In short: consult the tier list before your purchase. It's actively updated, very clear in it's criteria, and it bases itself on in-depth tests such as ones done by Aris of HW Busters. Don't trust brand names, trust per-product stress tests.
>>109861737Retards shop by brandSmart people shop by reviews, specs and OEMsEven Seasonic has some shit models now
>>109862395Only on the lower end and only retards buy low end PSUs
>>109862380>Seasonic makes their own gutsExcept their low end models which are rebranded chink crap
BeQuiet german masterrace
>>109862263in 10 years you should be more than ready for a more powerful gpu that needs a more powerful psu
>>109861581Isn't it super retarded to touch the device after it caught fire? It's an electronics shop they must have a breaker and a fire extinguisher ready at all times.
>>109862642in 10 years you should expect an improvement of efficiency, not power consumption
>>109862642I'll undervolt and still have better performance.
>>109862380wheres my shit in this spreadsheet? mines the 2026 revision, even HW managed to have a 2024 standalone review, whens the next update on this bitchass doc>>109861737>>109861743>>109862064>>109862257>alt+f4 "EVGA">0 resulthmmm...>>109862395>now
>>109862723isn't the OEM for EVGA PSUs Super Flower?
>>109861581Corsair RMx series is the goat for ripple suppression, which I believe matters most.That being said I hear they use cheaper components now so try and find something from 2021 or earlier if you can.
>>109862962>That being said I hear theyyou redditing cunt, prove it
>>109861581Lucky, i bet the fumes smell like lavenders
>>109862723my EVGA PSU shat itself and almost took out the GPU with it, went with Superflower after that
>>109862962RMx are total garbage
>>109861581The most coveted job in the whole operation>Guy who plugs PSU in to make sure it doesn't have explodey defects.
>>109861581would this be considered sub-optimal?
why should i care about ripple supression or my power supply having wifi?
>>109862723>uses chrome and gmail
Seasonic, FSP, Great Wall, Super FlowerEverything else is either white-labeled from those companies or are made from the finest arson-grade chinesium.
The fan on my Super Flower Leadex VII XP PRO 1200W Platinum developed a loud rattle in a couple weeks. It's annoying but I'm too lazy to return it. It probably works fine with the fan off too but I'm never buying this shit again.
>>109861743This, but in the opposite order.
>>109863667which of the two is fractal
>>109861581I got a refurbished corsair for 50 yuros (actually built by seasonic) in 2013 that's still in my pc and working today. if i ever need another psu it will be seasonic
>>109862380>Seasonic makes their own guts. So does FSP. Super Flower too (except for some low-end models)
>>109861581Montech as a newcomer, 10 year warranty and straight A's in PSU tests
>>109861581be quiet nigga
>>109861737>>109862257>>109862380>>109863667FSP is basically the closest thing to an actual industrial reliability PSU as they conformal coat and the units are basically identical to the units meant to work in a grimy plant for decades or run some life saving equipment.I'm sure Seasonic still makes good units but I have a slight distaste nowadays for blanket hype or hearsay. It's not enough to say X brand is good, or even that a certain product level from X brand is always good.I have an EVGA G2 1300w which I kinda don't like for the same reasons but the evidence is actually pretty overwhelming for it's reliability but that is also in hindsight long after the hype is dead. I otherwise don't have a desire to touch any newer super flower units.
