QUOTE(Kristal.S @ Aug 30 2018, 11:04 AM) Haha well if the company does it this way I'm sure it could handle the power.  If you still prefer to use 2 cables you could do that too but gotta deal with extra cable management. Definitely the Corsair TX650M with it's 7 years warranty at that price. I recently purchased from the exact same seller that I linked you. Came in super good packaging.  ya ty for linking it super cheap btw u know where is their shop?

I slipped this one out when suggesting you. Haha. Im a happy man today lol Got the psu i order last Thursday just now. Nicely pack and cheaper compare to others sellers But haha feel somewhat weird as the PSU is smaller and lighter compare to my current Silverstone haha Attached thumbnail(s)

It can last longer. Super Flower is 80+ Silver certified and fully modular though.

Maybe ask goldfries to take a look? This post has been edited by mbr: Sep 19 2018, 12:06 PM

Hye can recommend me budget around rm150-rm230. Before this using fsp hexa+ 550w can tahan 3 years only. Now looking with 5 years warranty.

QUOTE(TristanX @ Sep 17 2018, 01:57 PM) Seasonic S12ii is known for using full Japanese caps. It can last longer. Super Flower is 80+ Silver certified and fully modular though. Full Japanese caps doesn't always mean better longevity. The problem is the Seasonic S12II is based on an older platform, i.e. group regulated and double-forward design. This makes it unsuitable for modern machines https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/858096...or-later-years/It's also worth noting that Super Flower is the OEM behind some of the best PSUs in the market

No issue for Seasonic M12 II(same parts as S12 II) 520W. 2 years past the warranty. Still kicking. Japanese caps helps the PSU last longer. Super Flower Platform has Japanese caps too. Only the modular board isn't.

Modular board has very low load and the caps are polymer so it's not that much of a concern  Super Flower is a tier 1 PSU maker (at the same level with Seasonic), and I highly doubt they will use some very low grade components on the modular PCB  Also modular cables are great for keeping your case internals as tidy as possible, especially in smaller cases This post has been edited by chocobo7779: Oct 20 2018, 09:07 PM

QUOTE(TristanX @ Oct 20 2018, 11:13 PM) I wouldn't worried that much - the capacitor is dealing with very little load and power  Unfortunately the problem with the Leadex Gold is not about the capacitor though, but it has something to do with the hold up time with the unit. The EVGA equivalent, the Supernova G2 is essentially a lightly-modified variant of the Leadex, does not have the hold up time issue  However, it's not something you should really worried about, and I highly doubt it will mess your hardware up  Not to mention warranty too - I'm currently on my 3rd unit (G-550), as the previous 2 units have failed and each RMA took me about 4-5 months due to the fact that there are no official distributors that handles my RMA at that time This post has been edited by chocobo7779: Oct 21 2018, 02:14 AM
