This Short is more of a "don't cheap out on your power supply, because pricy ones have more bling" instead of a real explanation of what makes cheap power supplies bad. So let me break it down why it actually matters instead. Let's start with 80+ Certification. The PSU should have at least 80+ Gold these days. If your PSU cannot reach that, chances are it's missing important protections and is built using low quality parts that won't last long. With that said, the 80+ Rating of a power supply is not the definitive factor of what makes a power supply good. It purely rates the power supply's efficiency (basically that means a higher rating means less power lost to waste heat). Even PSUs with High 80+ Ratings can blow your system up. (Example: Gigabyte PG750M which has an 80+ Gold Rating) So what do you need to look for actually? Mainly Protections. You wanna make sure your PSU has all of them (OPP, OCP, OTP, OVP, UVP, SCP) if you wanna know what all of this stands for look up for the acronyms individually. But these things basically ensure that your PSU turns itself off safely before it gets damaged. There's also something called Ripple. You want to make sure this is kept to a minimum. If you read somewhere that a PSU tends to Ripple out of spec, avoid that unit. 12V rails. Some PSUs have single, some multiple 12V rails. Most of your components like your GPU utilize this. So you wanna make sure the amperage of the 12V rail is really high, especially when using single rail PSUs. The Standard used to be 18A but you really wanna go much higher these days. Now I know all of this makes the choice of buying PSUs look very complicated but luckily there are people willing to help. Google for the Cultists Network PSU tier list. That list is pretty good and also tells you which units are good and which are bad, they also tell you which premium looking units are actually problematic and why.

Super sleek build bro!

Be aware of your circuit the power supply is plugged into. An 800 watt power supply can draw 8 to 10 amps on a 120 outlet. Most loops are on a 10 or 15 amp breaker. This means that you can trip the breakers or have large power bills coming soon. Just go budget build with 650 watt power supply need

If you do need to replace cables or you decide to go custom, make sure you’re getting cables compatible with your PSU as they might have different pin outs and that can cause damage. I didn’t see a listing on FSPs website for replacement cable and cable mods doesn’t support them, so if you want to custom sleeve your cables you’ll have to go with a more popular brand. I’ve had really good luck with corsair but they’re consistently more expensive than others.

Maingear PSUs are a great bang for the buck PSUs, I bought a 1200w for around $200 and I legitimately have 0 issues with it. I even have both my CPU AND GPU overclocked with no issues whatsoever. Plus it's 80+ Platinum.

Is that 3 intake fans at the bottom and seven exhaust fans? Holy moly set up is getting more air out than it is getting in to cool the parts lmao

I think that the prebuilt I bought cheaped out on the power supply. I got a Ryzen 5 5600x and 3060ti for $1350. (1350 was total price for pc but it had a ryzen 5 5600x and a 3060ti) This was during the heart of the GPU shortage and the power supply went bad after I think 9 months of use.

don’t forget to check the PSU Tier list

My PSU was $20 and had been working good for going on 11 years exactly

Indeed, the veracity of this statement is evident, and it holds considerable merit.

Man your PC is sick 😯😯😯😯😯

Also there is something called psu tiers look that up and it reccomends what count as psu tiers and get what fits with what they say this is generally the most important factor in psus

Yes i agree on that because like the body of a human the power supply is the heart of the CPU

So true. For my old gaming PC I had a SeaSonic Focus GX-750w 80+ Gold For my new gaming PC I have a Corsair HX 1200w 80+ Platinum

I have a bronze 850 watt still going strong 4 years. 💪

and also. if a psu blowes out it can takes most if not all components with it as it is more or less direktly connected to them

Most of the reasons listed are nice to haves rather than the main reason of damaging your components or worse, exploding

Thank you. But I’m need monitor first.

I fucked up on that part. Still haunts me 2 weeks after building my first rig.

Yeah one of my mistakes when I built my first PC a decade ago. After some few months it started turning off by itself everytime I played games. Replaced it with a Corsair after that and didn't have any problems. The same PC is still working to this day. I'll probably cheap out on the other stuff if have to but never on a PSU

if a cable on a modular psu breaks, u still have to replace the entire unit. never mix and match psu cables, one guy did that and lost his 16gb hard drive or some shit.

For me I will use any psu as long as it's not a napalm bomb.

Love your pc! I wish I had a pikachu in mine

I agree I have the 1000 watt Corsair modular power supply
