Can you still return it and replace it with a cooler master master watt, Corsair CX x50W, be quiet Pure Power 1x (or even System Power 9)?
He was wrong.
It was never that good.
Back in 2010 it was somewhat OKish at best.
That was almost 10 years ago.
But the Problem with the shitty protection remained.
And its really really loud at medium loads (such as 250W).
FSP Hyper K or some other lower end are also better...
And if you don't have the money, you'll be fine with 400-500W.
