So i bought a GTX650 ( Msi power OC edition) in Octobar this year.And i have a Q6600 (OC'ed to 3 Ghz).I was very low on Budget so i bought a Cit 480UB psu.I didnt had any (Literally any) problem with that psu.Its working very well and i am getting a great performance from the system.But as of now i want to Upgrade my GPU (cpu maybe) to Gtx950 ( Asus Dual fan varient). But i just checked the reviews of the psu and i am really afraid to use it more. IDK why.

Should i buy a Coolermaster or Corsair , Evga , Antec , Seasonic psu or Upgrade my CPU to i5- 2nd gen.

Any Help will be Appreciated

(Sorry for my Bad English)

I also attached the image of the psu

junk psu, toss it. get a Seasonic or FSP or Delta.

yeah... delta doesn't make anything themselves, maybe just a high current or something

 

and both fsp and seasonic have some horrible PSUs in their line

 

 

op: what's your budget and country?

try not to aim for the lowest end hardware. When it comes to a system you care about, always try to spend a little extra cash on the power supply.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

So i just want to ask a thing 

1) I have a chance to swap my pc for a *Dell XPS720* with same specs only for 30$ .

Are Dell psu any good because This machine have a 750w psu.

2) Also have a chance to buy a  *CX430* from a retailer?

Which one should i opt for?

Dell is known to not use standard ATX PSUs. Some are allright but not the best PSUs.

Id go for a seasonic the CX430 is hit or miss.
