why? its evga, a reputable brand?

brands say nothing with psu's. or anything for that matter. evga and cooler master have made some terrible or just old psu's in the past. this is one of them

get a good psu. tier 3/c or higher, and wait for a sale if you can't get one at the exact moment. I don't want you to come back here because something bad happened with your psu

It is the Lite. It literally says it right there.

nothing that really matters. it means it's packed for retail, as it says

wait but it only says it at the end - retail packaging Cooler Master MasterWatt lite 400 400w, so maybe it just put in a Lite version box?

It could be the case but its risky, isn't there any website that's better that this one?

[seon123]

This one. Looks like it's the cheapest independently regulated PSU there.

Assuming they aren't outright lying on their website, it should be quite decent.

they are not its been around for 20 years so im pretty sure there is no point to lie. also it has great reviews, 2 of the laptops and a tv was bought from there.

nope thats the only, only pc parts store here, others are in  like major tech shops but everything is overpriced there and also mostly unbranded shit

Well, yes. I know about the brand, and I know for a fact that they have at least some quite decent PSUs.

There's still a Zalman ZM500-TX 500W 80 PLUS

Power Supply seems to be at least solid enough while it's within OP's budget.

 

From what I could find it's not a total fire hazard, hopefully @Stefan Payne can advise, OP comes from a country with poor alternatives and has too much of a tight budget.

well, if we're going to tag everyone into here, then i'll include @jonnyGURU too

Are you aware that you don't shop for Brand you shop for Model?

 

I have a Zalman power supply (ZM750-ARX 750w 80 Plus Platinum) powering an i7 3970X with dual TITAN X Maxwell on a render farm for more than a year already flawlessly.
