It's the same thing, the only difference is likely the modularity of the PSU

Note though, it's a low end unit with DC-DC (CWT GPN?), but it should be fine considering your machine doesn't consume that much power

myway1985 Seems like there are some new Super Flower PSUs:

Also, any new PSUs coming to the local market? Seems like Singaporean retailers are now selling the new Legion GX/HX PSUs:



Seems like those units are quite decent value wise and would be a good competitor to the MWE Gold (and similar models) if it comes here

Hi, everyone, need a suggestion here. My PSU : Seasonic 620W is kinda old, almost reach 6 years already. Now to the PSU started to have this subtle buzzing sound, not sure what sound it is but it kinda annoying to leave the pc on idle but have that sound in my room. Below is my spec

Ryzen 7 3700X
MSI B550M Mortar
Corsair Dominator RGB 3200Mhz 8gbx4
Asus Strix GTX1070
Samsung 960EVO 500GB
HDD 1TB x 2
HDD 2TB x 1
SSHD 1TB x 1
4 Corsair LL120
2 Corsair stock fan
1 Corsair Lighting Node Pro
1 Corsair Lighting Hub

should I be worried of the sound coming from my psu ? If I were to change the PSU, which PSU is recommended thinking in future I might upgrade to a RTX3070 at least ?

So any upcoming PSUs to be released here?

Might be coil whine? (a recording would be useful here)

Coil whines are not something to be concerned about

If you plan to go for a 3070, look for a quality 550-650W unit, something in the line of the XPG Core Reactor/Enermax Revolution DF/Super Flower Leadex III/Corsair RM should do very nicely

Psu might need bundle.soon.. haha

here is the video  IMG_8172.MOV ( 19.44mb ) Number of downloads: 24


i guessed it's a coil whine ? since it's a 620W psu, if I were to upgrade to a 3070, can it sustain the load ? or I should upgrade together with a new PSU, saw a shop at shopee sell the XPG Core Reactor 750W for RM458, is it a good price ?

Sounds like coil whine for me

Yes, it will handle a 3070, but do bear in mind that you might want to swap to a newer unit as yours is an old, group regulated unit, which isn't very suitable for modern systems anymore

The XPG Core Reactor is a great unit, so go for it if you can (although a 750W unit would be massively overkill for a 3070)

i see, thanks for the suggestions, will consider those power supplies

mind recommend between super flower leadex iii 650w gold vs xpg core reactor 650w ? which better for overclock amd 5600x & rtx 3070

Both are very high quality units, so pick the one that is cheaper of the lot

The Leadex III is a tier A+ unit (marked in gold in the PSU tier list), whereas the Core Reactor is a Tier A unit:
https://linustechtips.com/topic/1116640-psu...-psu-tier-list/

which one best bang for bucks 550w psu? tired googling and cant decide any hahaa..im using i5 10400f with rtx 2060/3060..i tried psu calculator and seems like 550w is sufficient already as i cant overclock the intel..

my suggestion is get the HIGHEST Powered with HIGHEST EFFICIENCY PSU you can afford.

PSU is NOT LIKE CPU/GFX card where you need to change often..

A good one can last you a LIFETIME...

FYI I've been using Seasonic 860W Platinum for >6 yrs ; and survived 3 generations of an upgrade of CPU&GPU.. it scales accordingly when upgrade

You may regret getting 'just enough' for your current rig.. but ended up spending a new PSU when you upgrade your CPU/GPU in the next couple of years...


I did pay close to RM900 back then for this Platinum efficiency 860W PSU ; but I don't have to change 3x PSU and I saved upfront on bill electricity...

Efficiency =! performance mind you

There are lots of 80+ Gold/Platinum units that perform mediocrely

What really dictates the quality of the PSU is usually the quality of the components and the overall topology of the PSU itself (as a rule of thumb, always avoid any group regulated + double forward units, as those units are pretty much outdated for modern PCs)

Use the PSU tier list for a general idea of the PSU quality:
https://linustechtips.com/topic/1116640-psu...-psu-tier-list/

How much are you willing to spend though?

The new Super Flower units are quite decent:
https://www.lazada.com.my/products/super-fl...r6eCuZ&search=1

DC-DC + LLC topology along with Japanese main capacitors, and is a Tier B unit on the PSU tier list (low priority for now, due to a lack of reviews)

ouch..i already bought Super Flower Silver Eco 90+ 600w at lowyat just now..hopefully its good enough

hi guys, need some help concerning PSU wattage, as previously I had seek some advice from facebook but then I think I may have gotten some wrong information. I bought 850W PSU for AMD Ryzen 5 3600 + RTX 3070 setup.
But when I use the PSU calculator from google, they mentioned I only need around 400W to power up my PC setup.

Will oversupply of Watt from PSU harm my PC? The PSU I bought is as per below

https://shopee.com.my/product/18789640/6717999372

No, the hardware will only draw the necessary watts needed from the PSU

You have a high quality unit, so don't worry

thanks for the assurance
