Hello, Recently I upgraded my psu in fear that the old one was producing a slight burning plastic smell from my case. Two weeks after installing the new one the smell returned for about 1-2 minutes. There was no smoke that i could see, system temps were fine but the smell was way stronger than last time. I cleaned out my components from dust in hopes that the smell was just burnt dust. It's been about 12 hours since the smell and everything is running just fine. I also tried smelling every component to find the origin of the smell but I found nothing. My leading theories are as follows: The new psu burned off a large amount of leftover flux. My old gtx1060 6gb Is literally burning to death because of my other higher end components. Can anyone help me get to the root of this problem? Here's my specs: CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600X Motherboard MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX RAM 1x DDR4 Corsair 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 Vengeance LPX Red GPU Gainward GeForce GTX1060 Phoenix 6GB DDR5 Case Scilentum PC Regnum RGIW Pure Black (with window) Storage HDD Seagate 1TB 64MB cache SATA600 7200rpm PSU be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM 700W 80 Plus Gold Display(s) DELL P2017H iiyama G-Master GB2530HSU Black Hawk Keyboard MODECOM MC-5005 Mouse Hiro Aero NTT-22 Operating System Windows 10 Professional 64Bit

I think I'll go with the "be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM 700W 80 Plus Gold" However this is my first time changing out a PSU, so what measurements do i need to take into account to check if it will fit into my Regnum RG1W?

Yeah I get that

Rookie mistake, wrong button. But you still have a good point. I'm looking for as much recommendations as possible EDIT: But still, in 5 years I def. won't be going dual GPU's, so even less than a 650 should cover my future upgrades

Yeah, looks like i overestimated the power draw. This upgrade will last me a good while so I definitely dont need 750W

~350W seems low for that kind of system power, it's a pleasant suprise considering the fact that I currently have a 450W PSU. But with the problem I mentioned, better safe than sorry. My local pc part site would be www.X-kom.pl or it's relatively lesser competitor www.morele.net. As for the actual PSU's, I think corsair would be the most reliable brand, but I haven't done much intensive research into reliabiliy of brands like be quiet, corsair or fractal design.

200$

Hello, I'm currently at the last leg of my pc upgrade project, and I've run into a problem. Randomly, I'll smell burning plastic when using my pc. When I notice the smell and get down to open and smell the case/components, the smell is gone. I've checked my cables, temps of the CPU and GPU are normal. This led me to think the problem was probably with my 5 year old PSU (It didnt smell like burned plastic either). This situation has accelerated my purchase of a new PSU in preperation for the RTX 3070 Founders Edition Upgrade. The problem is: I have no idea what PSU should I buy. I've been thinking about 750W since that would cover my current CPU, the 3070 and leave me some headroom. Could someone help me pick what PSU I should buy?

I'll just add that you guys are amazing.

Indeed it is! It's almost unbelievable how far behind intel is at the moment.

I completely agree on these parts, so It looks like I'll be upgrading to a Ryzen 5 3600X, the Tomahawk MAX mb and Corsair Vengeance memory however, now I don't know if my 450W PSU will handle the load. I used the OuterVision calculator to estimate power usage for a heavy load, and it came up with ~446 W. Do you think that upgrading to a "be quiet System Power 9 500 W" PSU would be a recommended if not a "must have" option?

Hello, I'm planning on upgrading my PC for my 18th bday and I don't know what to actually upgrade to. At first I thought that Intel Core I7 7700 would be a good choice, however my eyes have been opened to the might of Ryzen CPU's. Right now my plan is to switch my motherboard (Asus H110M-K) to the MSI B450 Tomahawk Max, and the Ryzen 5 3600X, though i have some concerns as to the possibly needed BIOS update. My budget sits around 450 euros ($487). Can anyone here help me choose the best option my money can buy?

Hello everyone. I'm planning on buying an ASUS VG245H monitor, but from what i hear it has a ghosting problem. Is there anyone here that can confirm? If yes then is there a way to diminish that ghosting to an acceptable level ?
