anybody? reacted to LJohn0840 in Power supply options
Hey there,
I would highly recommend that you go for corsair CX450, as it also seems to be the most suggested one by experts. Cooler Master 650W PSU is also an okay option, but I would personally recommend the former.
Glade to be of any help! Cheers!

Usually you can check manual and see what headers you have. In this case, answer is no. Too low-end board for anything really.

Google 80+ ratings, to understand what white means.

go with Gigabyte P450B in this price range.. you'll save more power.

Efficiency is how much power the psu draws from the wall to supply the needed power for the build. it has nothing to do with quality.
Budget? what are you powering? and location and currency? the thermal take smart is pretty bad and i personally would not use it.

The 80+ rating is about the efficiency of the PSU. Your house's voltage is probably somewhere between 120 and 240 volts, but your PC parts don't run at that voltage. They mostly run on 12v, 5v or 3.3v power.
A PSU takes your mains 120-240v and converts it to 3.3v-12v power. In converting this power, there is some ineffeciency. The 80+ rating has various level (white, bronze, silver, gold, etc.) with varying levels of efficiency but they start (as the 80+ name suggests) at 80% efficiency and go up.
Anyways, this efficiency rating is mostly irrelevant when picking out a PSU, because it is not a quality rating. There are numerous components in a PSU, which need to be of sufficient quality.
Without knowing what PC parts you're getting, it's hard to say what sort of quality of PSU you need (as you can imagine a system with no videocard vs. a dual RTX 3080 needs a way different quality tier of PSU).
This Thermaltake PSU is not great though and I cannot recommend it.
Please list the components in your PC (at least the CPU, videocard and case) and rough budget on the PSU for some different recommendations.

Yeah i think to get most eyes on it, is make a seperate topic for that question. (USD works but since it needs to be sourced localy also local currency helps, there are ppl from all over the world in here.)
Remember the better you make that post look the better the results might be.
Also pretty sure if you not planning on putting a GPU in there 500Watts is way overkill.
The CPU would barely reach 100Watts used then a HDD is about 5-10Watts mother board takes around 20Watts. So you could even do with a 200Watt PSU.
But to be safe i would recommend a 300Watt-ish quality PSU.

anybody? reacted to Bombastinator in does my motherboard support rgb fan?
A320 in general is older and lower end. The problem with rgb in general is that unlike basically everything in white box pc building the manufacturers ran from standards as hard as they could. The result is there is no “supports rgb fan” because there is no “rgb fan” standard anymore. There are some motherboards that have connectors on the motherboard for some models of fans, there is no motherboard that has one for all of them.
the standard move is to use a fan controller box that connects to usb which all motherboards will have somewhere, including yours
