QUOTE(wanjun23 @ May 15 2019, 03:50 PM) Hi all, Is it worth to get an Corsair RM650x for my system? It is selling for around RM480 in Malaysia. I plan to get upcoming ryzen 5 and RTX 2070 for my build. If you have the budget for it, go for it. It's a very good unit by Corsair. Shopee is selling them for RM453. |

QUOTE(hanaxxaru @ Jun 12 2019, 03:39 PM) i5 4440 Asus reference r9 290x 1TB HDD 4GB x 2 corsair ddr3 ram D5 vario pump 3 case fans and 2 radiator fans Filco keyboard and logitech g403 2 usb 3.0 devices, external HDD and wifi ac usb adapter Basically its a midrange PC but my psu already broken.. it was a seasonic g550 and felt like barely enough.. im looking for a 650w psu but i saw hx750 only cost few more.. In future, i may replaced other hardwares, and 750w seems like sweet spot for any upgrade later.. It'd be pretty overkill for your system even if you upgrade them in future.. But again it's a very good unit and if you can afford them and willing to pay for them why not I guess. However, if you're looking to save some money, can consider Corsair TX650M which is a pretty well built unit: https://shopee.com.my/CORSAIR-TX-M-Serie-TX...7888.1839160415 |

QUOTE(davidw89 @ Jul 9 2019, 10:26 AM) Any recommendation for a quiet, reliable PSU around the 200 mark? FSP seems to be the go. It will be for a budge Ryzen build with no plans to overclock. Just general web surfing and youtube. What about this: https://www.lelong.com.my/evga-500w-500bv-8...0-08-Sale-P.htm |

QUOTE(davidw89 @ Jul 9 2019, 12:37 PM) I searched around on the internet. They said that the quality isn't too good. Well with RM200 budget, you can’t expect much for the quality. What you pay is what you get. Top up another RM50 and go for Super Flower Silver Eco 500W. That’s a decent unit. |

QUOTE(renishi @ Aug 1 2019, 04:16 PM) I have narrowed down to 2 PSU that i would like to buy 1. Corsair RM650x 2. Seasonic Focus Plus 650x Initially i wanted to wait longer for Seasonic 2019 refresh but i wanna replace my PSU if possible immediately. Based on Cybenetics, RM650x are quieter than the latter. (Seasonic start to make more noise after 400-450w) Im if some of you could share some insight on both of this unit that i may have left out or people who actually use them. Using RM750X, indeed a superb unit. Super quiet and cooling under load. Been using it for about 2 years now. |

QUOTE(crixalisrox @ Nov 29 2019, 11:11 AM) Hi, currently my build as below Ryzen 2600 B450m steel legend 2x8gb 1 m2 ssd + 3 x 2tb hdd old amd 6000 series GPU Super Flower silver eco 500WPlan to get an used RX580 nitro 8gb https://www.sapphiretech.com/en/consumer/nitro-rx-580-8g-g5 Can my PSU handle it without any problem? Their website recommend at least 500w. Im just a casual gamer Yes 500w is enough for your system. No issues there. Though the 600w is just tad bit extra. Might want to consider to get that to 'futureproof' should you want to upgrade your GPU in the future. This post has been edited by Kristal.S: Nov 29 2019, 11:30 AM |

QUOTE(weejian97 @ Jan 6 2020, 02:50 PM) budget around 200, my pc i5-9400, 8gb ram, no graphic card, mobo msi b360 mortar i choose that psu which has much higher watt than i need because i think this will make it more long life Higher wattage PSU does not prolong your PSU lifespan longer. Getting one with good quality does. If budget around RM200, can consider this: FSP 500W HYDRO K 80+ PLUS BRONZE POWER SUPPLY RM189.00 |
