Is this PSU good?

hippity_hoppity

It's a Deepcool Dn500 - 500w 80+ i found it to be VERY cheap, and overall this unit is pretty new actually. What do you guys think 

 

Like good I meant budget-good

What country are you in?

What hardware will be on it? If it's a really low end PSU you're probably fine up to 300W, which most gaming systems won't reach anyways.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Ok, well I got one another power supply that people say it is good, yet on a budget price too. It's the be quiet! Pure Power 10 400w but it only has 400w..

I'm running an Rx 570 with an Overclocked-to-4ghz Ryzen 3 2200g, I just don't think the wattage will be enough?

Go for the Be quiet unit

 

the max listed wattage doesn't mean much in terms of quality. There's plenty of 1000W PSUs that can't actually delivery 1000W continuously.

My own rig would technically run fine off a 400 watt PSU (not very quietly but still) and it's got an overclocked i7 and Titan.

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 needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

At a cursory glance it appears to be using the CWT GPA platform. Rather low end, poor quality group regulated design which lacks safety features (OTP, UVP, OCP).
Should be avoided. There's probably better stuff available even if you're on a budget.

The Pure Power 10 is a much better unit! Choose that.
400w is plenty. A system with an RX 570 + Ryzen 2200G will need less than 250w.
