Yes. But can you really trust an RM 50 PSU?

of course, it will overload unexpectedly and burn your whole system, of course if you intention to burn it and have a good reason to buy a new pc

As mashimarrow stated, overload will blow ur rig if overload =w=
Even u didnt overload ur psu burden, the lower gradeof psu, the lower great elec component its used. PSU just as a heart of a pc, weak heart result bad blood flow (more unstable power provide), in the result, will decrease ur bod(pc) lifespan as time going,especially run long time rig. |

QUOTE(requiem318 @ Apr 24 2017, 10:20 PM) Cap ayam power supply tends to have low +12V rail. True continuous wattage is around 200W. Not recommended. They don't come with protection as well. Just hope Lady Luck is with you if you wanna continue taking the risk. |

Theoretical question; what if it was a higher watt AVF PSU? Like 650w?

verdict:
you can stick with your current PSU, but when you have allocated enough budget sooner or later, quickly go and find a high quality PSU and replace. e.g. cooler master, fsp, silverstone, suoerflower |

At worst the overload condition will spoil a few components, over the years even on various tech sites you don't see many people complain about lousy PSU screwing up every component on a rig. Again don't go with simplistic explanation, it gives people wrong ideas and unnecessary fear. Now the question is, have you guys ever destroyed any PSU by overloading it or stressing it? I've killed no less than 10 so far, some of them are alive but power delivery degraded. Till date none of my exploded PSUs (yes, more than 1 - it comes along with flash bang, a whiff of smoke and burnt smell) have taken down any of my other components. I even had one case where my kitten pee into it without my knowing, so when I power on the PSU tripped and house electricity tripped along. That also nothing died. So that's not to say components are not at risk but I'm just saying you can't go about telling that things WILL DIE along with it. |

So that's not to say components are not at risk but I'm just saying you can't go about telling that things WILL DIE along with it. Its true that have possibility will spoiled some component than a whole rig if something going wrong, but even with few component, its not worth that try save money from psu to better other parts. I havent destroy my psu yet @@ cause i'm only used three different psu, Enermax Liberty Gold 400w -> Seasonic G550 -> Laptop -> Seasonic P760. Because i saw a guy who use dual xeon + sli with a sonicgear or what oledi rated 600w psu, in result his xeons and one of gpu bye bye. I wont give me a higher chance to mess up my rig just becoz save money for psu ... My friend got a mid end rig which i builed in the past, but he didnt get my advice for a better psu and choose using cap ayam psu, which stated as 650w, even its not blow any component, but in result some of his rig's component get a short lifespan which died after 1 years. I still recommend a better psu because easily get unstable eletric, higher voltage than supposedly 240v should be thanks to lame TNB. |

Some PSU do show signs first before dying, for example I have a Vantec Ion2 PSU before, after a month of stressing it the fella start to give off burnt smell. Faster send for RMA and sell off.
Cheap PSU, as long as you are using for stuff like office work usually no problem, can last super long years. It's when you use higher end stuff where the power draw fluctuates, that's when things go bad. The PSU is like a heart. A person with strong heart or weak heart, outside they look same. It's when you force both of them to do work out then you see the one with strong heart steady but weak heart have problem. A person with strong heart, you get them to do 100m dash. Stop, then do it again, then stop. They're fine. The one with weak heart, after a while they cannot take it. Same goes to PSU component. Steady delivery is not the main problem, the main problem is how the components handle power draw fluctuations, suddenly low, suddenly high, then low again then high again. |

yeah, blowing up like a firework is rare case, but the potential is there, he only stated as cap ayam, didn't say AVF, it is still graded as low grade PSU however.
For office use, I don't mind cap ayam, using onboard GPU, 1-2 harddisk, occasion system self reboot, nothing serious, but he is using it to play game, pushing whole system close to 100% usage, continuous pulling power from low grade PSU might cause it to crank up wattage which might burn out, risking some component burn along during the overload |
