wta, 2 days ago my mobo Asus gave warning of "VOLTAGE SPIKE" causing the mobo to auto shutdown to prevent damage to hardware.

after googling, some said this feature is problematic and may cause the above issue, hence i disabled it as the PSU does have internal auto-shutdown feature etc.

the above resulting the same auto-shutdown by psu after <30min of gaming @ Metro Exodus with gpu temp at 50C+ and CPU at 60-70C (watercooling).

hence, aside from RMA, which current psu has the best price/performance ratio?

current is Corsair Axi860W, looking at Coolermaster V1000 (or v850 is enough already?) as the review on this is very good for its pricing.

GPU 1080ti
cpu 4770k
HDD - 3 pcs
SSD 2 pcs
Watercooling.

Which V850/V1000? Because there are two variants of them, of which one of them is made by Enhance rather than Seasonic icon_idea.gif
