Hi guys, recently both my motherboard and gpu suddenly kong and I am afraid it might be caused by my psu dealing damage over time? Not sure how to check so just want to replace for a peace of mind.
My current setup is: Intel i5-10400 Gigabyte H410M H V3 Klevv 2 x 8gb DDR4 2666Mhz Sapphire Radeon R9 390 1 x SDD, 1 x HDD All powered by SEASONIC M12 II 750 EVO.
Currently looking to replace to a new unit but with limited budget at around 200-300.. Is CM's MWE 650 Bronze V2 sufficient? Found at shopee for about RM229. Or is there any better alternative?
Thanks in advance!

QUOTE(chocobo7779 @ Oct 27 2021, 12:19 AM) I highly doubt your PSU will damage your PC over time  The M12II is an old unit but it's still mostly fine for low powered GPUs (probably up to a 3060)  But a R9 390 isn't exactly a power efficient card either so you might want to spend a bit more for a higher quality unit, see here:   I'd recommend increasing your budget to something in the line of the NZXT C650 or the Corsair RM650  The MWE Bronze v2 isn't exactly an upgrade either over the Seasonic  Guess that's just bad luck then for both my mobo and gpu I think i see you mentioning that the NZXT C650 shares the same platform as Seasonic or something? So I guess that should be good! Thanks for your input
