@Juular, I recently stumbled upon Deepcool power supply product page again and noticed that they've changed the internals of the DP-BZ-DA600N unit. It seems that the platform shown in the picture (links are in the quoted post) doesn't use DC-DC regulation. If you can recall, this was not the case earlier. Because of these changes, I guess we cannot really trust Deepcool with their DA-N line of products and we need to move them to a lower tier alongside the other low-end Deepcool units (DA, DA-M, DN, etc.)

I had the same problem when I bought my Ryzen 5 3600 (technically still have). Unfortunately, I've tried all the things mentioned above to no avail. In the end decided to slap a beefy cooler on top of it and call it a day. You can try undervolting it but I really doubt you will be able to do it without a significant performance loss (especially single-core performance) and stability issues.

That's not how it works. 80 Plus certificate has nothing to do with how much power a PSU can provide at full load. You can read about it here: 80 Plus - Wikipedia. That's a really low quality unit, even worse than your current one. I wouldn't use it for powering a budget system, let alone yours. I suggest looking into PSU tier list and picking one of the power supplies from an A tier that can provide 600W or more:

Depends on the exact PSU model (and other parts of course). Remember, higher wattage ≠ better quality.

That is probably a newer model of Deepcool DA series power supplies, which has a DC-DC regulation (internals). Considering that at this moment it's pretty much impossible to build a PC with a solid discrete GPU at a reasonable price, I should just go for it. Compared to many other pre-built PCs in our country, the PSU is pretty decent and will probably work just fine. Though, I suggest replacing it after the warranty expires.

My Game looks bad does it has to do with my graphics card
Tautedorus replied to EntonHQ's topic in Graphics Cards
What a monitor has to do with how the game is rendered? -
Everything is compatible with each other but there's a lot that needs to be changed: The power supply unit is a pretty crappy one. Refer to the PSU tier list for more information. The motherboard is not good. It is barely enough to use the full potential of that 6-Core processor. You can get a much better one for not that much more. There's no SSD and without one your PC will feel sluggish no matter how powerful other components are. The chassis has poor airflow because of the closed off front. I suggest watching GamersNexus chassis reviews to know what makes a good chassis. The graphics card is only a bit better than integrated ones so there's no point of buying it. You should pick a faster memory kit. It only costs a few dollars more in most cases and Ryzen processors really benefit from it. There is no need for the more expensive 3200MHz memory, since it will only run on 2666MHz at most with Core i5-10400F and B460 chipset motherboard. You can also pick a cheaper motherboard and with that money get a faster SSD that has two times the capacity, e.g. Silicon Power A80 (512 GB). And I would choose the Corsair CX550 power supply. It's quite a bit better than the Cooler Master one and at the moment it's even cheaper.

Upgrade am3 socket... 955 to 1100t
Tautedorus replied to Computersarethebest's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Scythe Big Shuriken 3 is cheaper and a bit better. -
Quite a bit better. How much can you spend? From which store are you planning to buy?
-
If you gonna power something that needs 750W, you should buy a quality power supply unit. And those units, as you said, usually cost more.

need help with choosing power supply
Tautedorus replied to NoscibleDart212's topic in Power Supplies
A power supply doesn't blow hot air into a PC case. So no, higher efficiency doesn't affect component longevity at all. -

Higher wattage power supply doesn't improve lifetime of components in any way. -

Tautedorus replied to NoscibleDart212's topic in Power Supplies
For what reason exactly? So that the buyer wastes money on something he will never fully use? Also 80+ certificate has nothing to do with the quality of a PSU. Don't know why you mentioned it. -
If you don't install or give admin permissions to random stuff that you find online, you don't need anything more than a Microsoft Defender.

do you think I should get a different psu for this system?
Tautedorus replied to carmadman's topic in Power Supplies
If we're still talking about that Aerocool, it has only one review from 2014. Maybe it was passable in 2014 (as you can tell from the rating the reviewer gave) but the unit that is sold now has been downgraded (check the link that I posted previously). Knowing that, I wouldn't recommend powering anything with that crap. If we're now talking about your current PSU, I haven't found a single proper review. This unit has been working for you for so long because your system doesn't even draw 200W under full load. If it were powering something more power hungry, that wouldn't be the case.
