    guess other sweetheart power supply is rm650x if you want japanese capacitors vs rm650 and this seems $40 cheaper than the corsair rm options.

          I’ve posted it around but it gets ignored, it’s a warning that PSUs aren’t as well made as they used to be. I have one in my current pc and there’s been no issues but it was a concern how much this faulty one blew up so much shit, lost all hard drives, a motherboard and a GPU to it

        • mycosys on 05/09/2022 - 01:51

          Every manufacturer gets the odd bad model, most Antec units are historically made by Seasonic who make fantastic PSUs, though like most brands there are cheaper models by other manufacturers.

          • teddiebear on 05/09/2022 - 05:49

            @mycosys: Seasonic make corsair psu's and they rebrand them.
            Seasonic used to make xfx, silverstone, corsair, and some superflower psu's. Imho, seasonic is the only brand to buy. I know the price isn't everybodies cup of tea, but you do get what you pay for…. quality, reliability, peace of mind.
            Not all corsair's are made equal, so please do some research as to what you're gonna use it for…. gaming, office, mining, productivity ect…

      This has all Japanese capacitors form what i can tell, the product page says 'Japanese Capacitors' and the box for them says '100% Japanese capacitors.

    Always double check MB specs. This psu only has one ATV 12v 4+4. On my last upgrade the MB needed two of these connectors, limited the psu options a fair bit.

            @smerm07: OOPS apologies I am wrong! I ordered two units - one GF1 (non-ARGB), and one GF1 ARGB.

            The ARGB version arrived today, and it's got the 1x connector… but they are meant to be the same PSU design. Once the non-ARGB one arrives I'll report back :)

            • smerm07 on 06/09/2022 - 14:37

              @MrGareth: no worries. but yeah i am confused. the webite says only 1 x connector. has to be a newer/revisised model

              so i presume i can do 1 x 4+4 and then a 1 x 4 on the motherboard. both connectors have the split 8 (4/4)

              • MrGareth on 06/09/2022 - 16:19
                +1

                @smerm07: Heh… well funnily enough:

                GF1 = 2x 4+4 connectors (I got the same as you)
                GF1 ARGB = 1x 4+4 connector

                They are meant to be the same design though, so it looks like TT sneakily modified the specs of the GF1.

                • smerm07 on 06/09/2022 - 16:23

                  @MrGareth: very interesting. reading up on it, unless your doing crazy overlocking, you won't need the extra 4pin connector anyway. But yes, very strange all of this.

      Are you sure your motherboard actually needed 2 8 pin connectors? Thats normally optional for extreme overclocking theres a hell of a lot of power on one.

      • lime111 on 05/09/2022 - 13:56

        Yes. Motherboard was ASRock B550M Steel Legend. Needed total of 12 pins on the ATV 12 volt (so technically one and half of the cables).

          • lime111 on 06/09/2022 - 08:43

            @mycosys: Definitely not a single 4 pin. The first specs is for either 8 pin or 2 lots of 4 pin i.e. when it says put a 4 pin in slots 1 and 5 that is 2 lots of 4pins. right next to it on the board is an extra 4 pin ATX 12V. Whilst optional if it's there we gotta use it!

    Thermaltake Toughpower iRGB Plus 850W 80+ Gold - AMAZON / SCORPTEC / MWAVE $149 (if you want for 3080 build?)

    • Jugganautx on 04/09/2022 - 09:38

      3080s only use 380w at 100% load.

      • GandalfTheCheap on 04/09/2022 - 11:20

        Correct.

        Though given rumours about the next gen GPUs more watts will be needed for quiet/efficient use. I bet that's why these midrange wattage PSUs are cheap, some people are going to 850 and more for their next builds.

      • snep on 04/09/2022 - 11:47
        +1

        True, although that figure can be misleading — the issue increasingly appears to be transients which can spike significantly higher than the nominal draw for brief periods.

        That said, a higher quality psu like this is likely to be capable of dealing with those regardless. (For reference I have a 6800xt with maxed ppt on an SF600 without issue)

        • mycosys on 05/09/2022 - 01:53

          it tends to happen to high quality supplies with very fast and tight overcurrent protection.

          • snep on 05/09/2022 - 11:50

            @mycosys: Interesting. On the flip-side, higher quality power supplies are more likely to be able to deliver above their rated wattage (certainly with static loads at least) and usually have a better hold up time/higher capacitance, presumably aiding in dealing with brief spikes…

            • mycosys on 06/09/2022 - 00:26

              @snep: They certainly would be able to without their safety protections

  • samkenny on 04/09/2022 - 09:44

    Given I had recently searched in this segment, I can say the following.
    1. I didn't find anything below $100 that was fully modular.
    2. 650W is not enough (moved by mini itx system of 500W to 750W). There was no point in getting any less as my main system has a 3080 and someday, going to move to this system years later. Yes, my 3080 runs fine with sfx 750 corsair.
    3. Better to get non-modular as you are likely building in a larger case and if looks really matter, get pay extra for cable extensions.

    • xyron on 04/09/2022 - 14:51

      You can still use cable extensions with modular psus, in fact in some cases it's better because cable extensions add a lot of cable length and bulk that needs to be stuffed away.

      650w should be fine for a 3080 and a typical ryzen chip, if running Intel though I agree, the extra 100w will be worthwhile.

  • twisti on 04/09/2022 - 09:51

    I'm on a cougar 650w bronze psu at the moment, going to upgrade to a 5600 and 6800/Xt or equivalent, should I be looking at the 850w or can I get away with it?

    • snep on 04/09/2022 - 23:50

      You should be ok unless that psu is particularly poor for its wattage. I'm running a 5600x + 6800xt with increased power limits on both with a corsair sf600, no issues when fully stressing both with synthetics.

      If you end up with issues you can always upgrade then.

      • tellhimhesdreaming on 05/09/2022 - 08:53

        Hey man bit off topic but couldn't message you. Is your 6800xt 3x8 pin or 2x8 pin?

        I'm having some stability problems with the z trio 6800xt and my SF600 so just curious about your setup!

        • snep on 05/09/2022 - 11:38
          +1

          It's a 2x8-pin card, the gigabyte gaming oc. I'd imagine 3x8-pin cards may have issues with the sf600 as you'd have to double up 8-pins on one cable. Also I have the sf600 plat, which is supposed to have slightly higher performance than the gold model — might be relevant given this setup is running pretty close to the limits.

          • tellhimhesdreaming on 05/09/2022 - 15:00

            @snep: Yeah I've got the platinum too, was ecstatic with it up til now! It's possible by 8 pin splitter is a bit dodgy, or the PSU is getting a bit hot and losing efficiency, or scarily that it's simply not up to the task even with my <100w CPU (which is crazy to me!)

            Thanks

            • snep on 05/09/2022 - 16:40

              @tellhimhesdreaming: 8 pin splitter? You are using two separate cables (i.e. using two seperate spots on the psu) right?

              • tellhimhesdreaming on 05/09/2022 - 16:42

                @snep: Have two PCIE ports on the SF600 as you know, one goes straight to one 8 pin on the GPU, the other one splits to 2x8 Pin to go the GPU.

                • snep on 05/09/2022 - 17:36

                  @tellhimhesdreaming: Oh I thought the MSI was a 2x8-pin card as well. Yeah if it's a 3x8 and you're getting issues there may not be a lot you can do except upgrade PSU… Annoying because it's probably ultimately a cable limitation as opposed to the psu not being able to supply enough juice

  • UncleRico on 05/09/2022 - 22:12

    Looks like a great price for a Gold 650w unit, for those not obsessed with RGB everything.

    Speaking of which, what is the point of RGB on a PSU fan which is typically oriented to exhaust (unseen!) out the bottom of most modern cases?

    Or are some folk exhausting hot air into the base of their cases?

    • MrGareth on 06/09/2022 - 16:50
      +1

      I think you may have it the wrong way around… most modern PSU's have an intake (not exhaust) on the top of the PSU, which pushes air out the back. Most cases have an intake filter on the bottom of the case for that purpose, so it sucks filtered air from under the case into the PSU which then flows out the back.

      If you mount it that way, all you really get is a soft glow under the case though…. and in fact a lot of cases also have PSU shrouds as well, covering most of the PSU :)

      • UncleRico on 06/09/2022 - 19:16
        +1

        You are absolutely correct. Not sure how I got that jumbled around in my explanation.

        However, my question still stands. Assuming that intake from the base of the case is possible (yes, I know some cheaper cases won't have cutouts or filters to allow it) why would anyone choose to take air intake from their presumably warmer case than the cooler external air? Is it as part of the thermal extraction plan where exhausting hot air is considered more important than intaking cool air when it comes to PSU operation? Or is it just so they can see the pretty RGBs on their PSU's?

        I'm genuinely curious to know whether more people take their PSU intake from the case or the outside air, and why…

        • chrisie on 06/09/2022 - 19:20
