This has been my reliable Power Supply for my Battle Station from 2018 until now. Today when I turned on my RIG, she didn't post... or do anything.

Tested this PSU on my older Motherboard, it didn't post, and when I took my SO's PSW it did.

I think my RIG will be fine, it was working with my older PSW. But only time (and a new PSW) will tell.

Well worth investing in a Seasonic unit, either directly branded or a unit that they OEM for other companies (Phanteks, in my case).

Not only do they offer a ridiculously long warranty (10+ years), they are basically the industry standard when it comes to smooth, reliable power delivery.

They may be on the more expensive side for any given wattage range - but given that they power EVERY component in your system, it is one part you should never cheap out on.

I got a be quiet unit. The unit and company has reviewed well. It’s 10 year warranty and has everything I need.

They’re great also (have a Silent Power 10 in my NAS); definitely a step up from what you had before! 😄
