    Puntertje reacted to LukeSavenije in [EOL] PSU Tier List rev. 14.8   
    PSU Tier List 4.0 rev. 14.8 (END OF LIFE)
    Last Update: 27-07-2021

    Legend :
    Gray - EoL/obsolete and/or otherwise not recommended for purchase.
    Green - small form-factor (gold and blue colors are disregarded due to scarcity of SFX PSUs)
    Gold - best units in the tier (includes requirements for blue color in tier A)
    Blue - quiet operation under moderate load (see details in the spreadsheet)
    Hyphen / Dash - Series / lineups separator
    Slash - Models (inside one series) separator
    Parenthesis / Round brackets - Model variations (which belong to the same position)
    Square brackets - Additional description (wattage range, part of SKU code, label / casing color, release year)
    Numbers in red colored square brackets - footnotes, see descritptions at the end of respective tiers
    Low priority subtiers - Lack of info (no reviews) or minor issues (see the corresponding tab in the spreadsheet). Not recommended for purchase over any normal priority units.
    Multi-rail units - Not necessarily better than single-rail units but provide an extra layer of protection by having 12V OCP set lower than total capacity, which is especially relevant for very high capacity units (=>1kW). Pay attention to rails configuration when using with high power draw components to avoid shutdowns.

    See spreadsheet for changelog, methodology, detailed description of colors, review sources, notes on grayed-out units including issues like GPU incompatibility or quality and performance issues, and other additional info.

    [1] Units experiencing tripping issues with high transient power draw GPUs like AMD Vega, 6900 XT and nVidia RTX3080 / 3080 Ti / 3090.
    [2] Corsair SF units with LOT codes from 194448* through 201148* have potential problems, Corsair conducts a voluntary replacement, source.
    [3] Units that don't reach full rated capacity under full rated input voltage range.
    [4] Antec EA Pro Gold has versions for Chinese market made by FSP on competely different, worse, group-regulated platform (tier D). Source #1, #2.
    [5] Corsair HX1200 and HX1200i units with LOT codes in range between 2030* and 2041* may exhibit motherboard compatibility issues, entitled for advanced RMA, source.
    [6] Early EVGA G3 revisions had issues with out-of-spec performance under overload.
    [7] Older Seasonic Focus revisions (made before 2018) had transient sensitivity issues. Some new SKUs are not affected because they were released later (Seasonic Focus GM/GX/PX refreshes, Phanteks AMP, NZXT C/E etc.).
    [8] Seasonic PRIME based units experience shutdowns with RTX3080/3090 (and possibly RX6900 XT) GPUs, especially ones with unlocked power limit like FE and ASUS Strix. It is recommended, if going with such units, to overprovision wattage, 1kW for RTX3080 and 1.2kW for RTX3090, or power-limit the GPU, or performing a 'dirty' fix of disconnecting a pin of 12V V-sense wire from PSU-side connector of 24-pin motherboard cable (courtesy of Jonny Guru). Units based on post-2018 revisions of Seasonic Focus platform and majority of units by other OEMs are not affected.

    [1] MWE V2 units have high ripple issues on very low load also resulting in increased coil whine, fix pending.
    [2] High wattage CWT GPX based units have problems with failing burn-in test under sub 90VAC input, treat as 230V only, (Jonny Guru).
    [3] Units experiencing tripping issues with high transient power draw GPUs like AMD Vega and high-end nVidia Ampere.
    [4] Two versions of Segotep GP-G exist, older v1 version is non-LLC resonant and they're very hard to extinguish externally, hence model tiering based on v1.

    Puntertje reacted to Turtle Rig in Overclock 60hz to 144fps with sync on zero tearing smooth gameplay   
    Hey guys so basically Ive not liked LCD tech compared to CRT as I am old skool and come from Tandy to Prodigy to AOL, to Win 3.1 to win 95 and win 98 and win 2000 .. One thing I remember vividly is how CRT there was no input lag and it was smooth as sarah hukabee sanders butt... lol,, anyhow.  I have always played with vsync on as I can not play choppy frame tearing nonsense.  Its unplayable but of course it will give you more then the 60hz or 60fps it will allow tearing to get to fps you want.  With vsync on it is smooth mouse ,, and graphics smooth, not tearing.  Now it came to a point where 60hz vsync on was pissing me off.  It had input lag and was blurry and jaded and just not the best experience compared to old CRT days, so I said to myself wtf can I do to make things better or my experience better..............
     
    For nVidia cards only.
     
    Ok, so I go to nv panel and I go to sync options on the bottom and put "Fast" instead of vsync on.  And I launched CS:GO and Quake Champions and both were now showing me high frame rates in triple digits however it was jerky and not smooth and sorta unplayable.  So my brain went into quick mode and I go hmmmmmm, let me go up top , where you changed the maximum frames pre rendered,, and I set that to 4 ,,, then I launched both games again and WOW it was now triple digits fps but now smooth as butter,, even better then having vsync on,, cuz there is zero and I say zero input lag.  It plays just like a 144hz would do.  But of course this is through software trick, its not actually physically OCed to 144hz, Anyhow,,,,  For those with a 60hz monitor.  Try the above and thank me later.

    I think I would be really neat and kind of fun to be able to have our FAH activity listed on our profile, maybe somewhere near where the badges are. This display could be enabled in the profile settings if a particular person wanted to share their information. I think it would be a fun way for people who like to fold to stay motivated.

    I'm told this would probably be up to IP Board but I thought I would throw this out there anyway.

    They're about the same. 580 beats the 1060 in some games, mostly DX12 titles, while the 1060 wins in others. 1060 uses less power than the 580 out of the box tho.
