Hi sifu-sifu here, recently I just RMA my new Corsair RM1000x which bought after My Seasonic X-650 kaput last year.

I have no idea which good brand to try anymore.
Any suggestion for good quality, Gold efficiency PSU with wattage 750-1000W?

Budget? and your PC specs right now?

EVGA

Less than RM800 I guess. Gold efficiency series enough. Not going for high end Platimum.
I know Seasonic is the diamond among PSU but I am not sure for now. This is why I end up trying Corsair but got issue pula...

I am shamed to show this. Old rig. i7-3770k, GTX 1070, 1 SSD, 1 5.4k rpm HDD, 1 7.2k rpm HDD.
Maybe something future proof. I think higher watt would have lesser load on it even though my system won't consume much.

That's still a pretty capable machine though

Consider those units:

1. https://www.lazada.com.my/products/adata-xp...CycSkE&search=1 (XPG Core Reactor 750W)

2. https://www.lazada.com.my/products/fractal-...7312117nK9&mp=1 (Fractal Design ION+ Platinum)

3. https://www.lazada.com.my/products/super-fl...554biVOb2E&mp=1 (Super Flower Leadex III)

Those PSUs should easily handle your machine, and they can even handle a RTX3080 (famous for high power spikes)

Not all EVGA units are good, it is very dependent on what EVGA models you are buying

Same goes to other reputable brands like Seasonic/Super Flower as well

Get Gold or Platinum or even Titanium
ones. Lasting.

Again, efficiency =! better quality

There are plenty of high efficiency units that do not perform well, mind you

All that I have is good and of high efficiency.

Hi guys,

Can you recommend me a PSU that is able to handle the RTX3060/RTX3060Ti? Looking to upgrade my current 500W Silverstone PSU that has lasted for 10 years

Tempted to get the XPG Core Reactor or RM650 but it is quite expensive, are there any more budget friendly options with Gold ratings? Thanks!

Consider these:

1. MWE Gold v2: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/cooler-m...evBkDP&search=1

2. NZXT C650 (Seasonic OEM): https://www.lazada.com.my/products/nzxt-c65...554bSaNWvo&mp=1

3. Super Flower Legion GX Pro: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/super-fl...8PRUlc&search=1

Thanks for the recommendations! The MWE Gold V2 is quite close to the RM650 price I am seeing on Shopee from PCByte. The RM650 is now RM399 on sale.

It seems like the MWE V2 650W is also not being offered by many seller currently haha. Many out of stocks, only few seller remain that have stocks.

Then the RM650 is perhaps the best choice out there, considering that the MWE Gold v2 is one tier lower than the RM

Is it common to have coil whine on a new PSU? It is a Silverstone ST65F-GS.

Edit: Tried upload .aac but doesn't work.

Yes, and unless the coil whine is very audible, this shouldn't be much of a problem

Only audible when I stick my ear near the PSU. But the sound is there even when the switch on PSU is off (wall plug power is on). This one is also ok?

It's fine too

Coil whine doesn't usually means a faulty PSU, mind you

Sometimes it had this noise, so quite worried
