  1. after going through all the links here and filtering out the ones that arent available in my area, we have: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/6Y66Mp/corsair-rm-2019-750-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020195-na is available for £120 from awd-it https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/bqVD4D/corsair-rmx-2018-550w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020177-na is available for £100 but the only option is alza and ive heard some bad rep about them, might look into since Rmx is apparently amazing https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/8jZzK8/seasonic-focus-550-w-80-platinum-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-focus-px-550 is available for £120 from scan and amazon https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/XndxFT/seasonic-prime-ultra-platinum-550w-80-platinum-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-ssr-550pd2 available from £120 from scan and amazon What to choose from these four?
  2. Thanks a bunch, I'm using that as a reference for the PSUs i would get in the future. Unfortunately im not having much luck finding a PSU on pcpartpicker (shameless plug to my new post here) as they all seem out of stock or unavailable to ship to me. Ill defo keep that tier list pinned
  3. Budget (including currency): <£130 Country: UK Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Intense gaming Other details Im planning to replace my PSU as per this post, The rest of my system: Ryzen 3700x GTX 2070 super ASROCK X570 Pro4 Kingston HyperX 16Gb (2x8Gb) @ 3200Mhz (Have not enabled xmp so running at 2400Mhz currently) Kingston A400 480Gb SSD Seagate 2tb Barracude Computer HDD TP-Link Archer TX50E AX3000 wifi card Ive tried going through the PSUs here: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/products/power-supply/#sort=-rating&page=1&X=495,12976&A=575000000000,2000000000000, but the first 15+ are either out of stock or the seller does not post to me. I live in South east UK. Id appreciate it if anyone could find a PSU that should have enough wattage for my PC (~500W+) as well as will last me for 5+ years. If i need to increase my budget slightly im willing to do so. thanks
  4. Thought I could get it, Turns out I cant unfortunately, now on a hunt to find a PSU thats available for me. Think ill make a different post about that though since its kinda unrelated. Ill come back to this post if after I find a new PSU the problem persists. Thanks a bunch
  5. Thanks for the comments on this, would this be a good replacement? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/PVzZxr/corsair-txm-gold-650w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020132-na
  6. Its brand new, I now have two of the same PSU. I got the same one i used for ages since it worked perfectly. ^^
  7. Ive been using this exact PSU for my previous build for about 5/6 years, how comes you think the PSU is the problem?
  8. I dont know what this means, sorry https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01E4YRP8W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  9. Hi, I just built a new system for myself: System: Ryzen 3700x GTX 2070 super ASROCK X570 Pro4 Kingston HyperX 16Gb (2x8Gb) @ 3200Mhz (Have not enabled xmp so running at 2400Mhz currently) Kingston A400 480Gb SSD Seagate 2tb Barracude Computer HDD TP-Link Archer TX50E AX3000 wifi card EVGA 80+ certified 500W PSU Problem: Over the past week of usage, the PC has crashed (and sometimes refuses to turn on for an unspecified amount of time) around times of high usage ie gaming. Ive been able to play minecraft modded perfectly fine (all with seemingly lower than what i should be getting FPS - but that might be a separate issue), however occasionally when i start up CSGO or valorant my pc will either 1-Work perfectly 2-Turn off and restart 3-Turn off, And i cannot get it to restart for an unspecified amount of time. What I've done to try and fix this: I've been going under the assumption modded Minecraft is not as intensive as Valorant or CCSGO and that is the reason my PC crashes for those games, as such the problem has been refined down to "My PC crashes OCCASIONALLY when under high load". This leads to a few thoughts: -Overheating -Not enough power from PSU -Hardware failure in other senses First lets think about the possibility of overheating, My temps at idle are good for GPU and Hard drives; averaging about 40C, however my CPU and Mobo: I don't like that they're that high, perhaps they're getting too hot? My computer shuts down before I can put them under load. However to oppose this when my PC would not start back up again it would sometimes be off for >a day and would still not turn on, by then surely the components would've cooled and my PC would've turned on if it was an overheating issue? Next lets think about not enough power from the PSU. I only have a 500W PSU and a 3700x and a GTX 2070 Super to power, along with everything else. Additionally when looking through event viewer: Dates in the last week of critical errors in windows with the source: "Kernel-Power", when looking this up: "The Kernel-Power error (ID 41) error message states that the system has rebooted without first cleanly shutting-down. It can be caused if the system stops responding, crashes, or loses power unexpectedly. To be more precise, the error occurs when the computer is shut down or restarted unexpectedly." Sounds like this might be the issue, I did a test on my PSU to test if it was working correctly, putting a paper-clip between the green and black wires of my 24-pin connector, all the fans start up, indicating (according to the source i read) that the PSU is not faulty. So potentially I need a bigger PSU. Finally lets think about other hardware failure, looking at reliability monitor: Each error (excluding the last) simply says windows was not properly shut down on the days my pc has crashed, however the most recent error was "hardware error": I'm not really sure what to do with this information, other than the thought that possibly I have hardware playing up, thought it was worth mentioning. I've done the normal things of disassembling my PC and reassembling, re seating ram and putting it over into different slots, resetting the CMOS, yet my issue continues. Does anyone have an idea what I should do next to investigate/fix my problem? Thanks a bunch
