I rma my FSP Hydro G Pro 1000w atx 3.0 and been given a choice to replace with FSP Vita GM 1000w atx 3.1 or Super Flower Leadex iii 1000w atx 3.1 . I'm abit conflicted bcoz Vita GM only have 2 pcie 6+2pins and Leadex iii is only 5 years warranty. Which one should i choose?

What GPU are you using? If have 12VHPWR socket can use the native 12V 2X6 connection instead.

If your only choice is those 2 then your answer is Leadex iii since Vita GM ady not compatible with 2 PCIE connect. You could take the risk of using the pigtail on the Vita GM but thats at your own risk to find out if if works.

Otherwise like above said, sell it and buy some other.

BTW what happen to your Hydro G Pro?

It suddenly blew up. I'm a bit dissappointed, i thought fsp is very reliable. Hydro G pro atx 3.0 is really a good balance in connectors.

FSP is a reliable OEM brand, my HV Pro been running since 2022 til now, but I guess things happen and maybe theres other factors as high end PSU have lotsa protection b4 it can blow. Was the PC connected to a UPS or AVR?

I can fully trust FSP. I still have FSP Hexa 500W still going strong on low power rig. Using FSP Hydro Ti Pro 1000W on my main rig.

All brands, even good ones can have faulty units.  My Cooler Master V650 V2 which was a Tier A+ unit ended up faulty within 1 month of use sweat.gif
Eventually the retailer did a full refund sweat.gif

Yup looks like i had a lemon unit, so unlucky. Btw an update, i chose super flower leadex 3 atx 3.1 as it has 4x pcie 6+2pins connectors. Nowadays even rx 9070 xt need 3x pcie. Pray that it last long.
