How Much more time will it run?

[AndyBoy]

Hi I am one of the poor people that put an Inter-Tech Energon 650W in their pc's

Specz:

Amd Ryzen 3 2200g

2x4gb ram 2666mhz

SATA 3 1tb

I'm asking just so I wont fry this new apu I bought

[Jimkirk363]

I dont think it will "fry" anything aslong as ur not overclocking or really pushing it to the wall.

 

It should work ok.

Because it's an uber cheap PSU known to be prone to failure.

You under-estimate cheap power supplies.  Care to swap out one of yours for his?

That PSU is  a major gamble they are prone to failure, if you're planning on upgrading soon anyway just buy the new one now. Why risk it at all.

Ok man then after a week it is

[AndyBoy]

I thought it would run good because all I have is an APU and the god damn "reviews" from the site I bought it (Popular in Romania) said it was good god curse them.

 

I didn't think it would burn me whole house down if I wasn't careful/

 

Welp, I am leaving my house and THIS pc for 2 months then when I'll come back I'll upgrade.

Thanks!

 

Also when I unboxed this think a metal chunk fell out of a inportant thing so that's quality right there hope I have wqrranty for that

 

The last one and the yellow thing? Welp it has liquid running into it the first yellow thing btw I am NOT using this psu anymore it already went full fan speed

 

I bought this thing last week and a metal chunk dropped from it amd now when I noticed a fairly fast fan I decided to look into it and realised from where it is from

the black thing in the distance

Energon, what a great name.

Energy - Gone...

 

Anyway those metal chunks, as long as it's not interfering other component, it would be just fine.

You could try it and if your pc explodes, you’ll know why. 

[AndyBoy]

It deffinetly is but will my waranty cover this after 1 week? Even my old pc that had a 20 euro psu lasted 2 years.That yellow thing came out of place somehow and it's all I can asume is plastic melted.

This is a Inter-Tech Esp-Energon 650 watts struggling to run a ryzen 3 2200g

[frankyrobin69]

yep, take it back say it doesn't work and something is shaking around inside, DO NOT OPEN IT UP, they will replace hopefully

It isn't shaking it's just out of place and melted sadly it even came with a metal chunk from another thing inside that I got out.(The black thing in the back it still has some of the rest of that low quality aluminium but I can quess it's iron or something)

[frankyrobin69]

If its not working as advertised and you did not purposefully cause the damage within the warranty time, the seller, store or manufacture should accept the refund or replacement of goods, but it depends on the store or the country if they will do this TBH.

Which yellow thing? The one on the left, in the middle, or on the right?

 

The one on the right is a coil, it doesn't matter that it's bent to the side a little like that.

As for the other two yellow things, I can't tell from the angle of the picture.

 

Either way, I wouldn't trust that power supply with a raspberry pi. Return it and get something from a reputable brand, such as EVGA, Corsair, Cooler Master, Seasonic, etc...

What do you mean? part of it disconnected (from the circuit board)?

Yeah... that's not good. I'd definitely return the power supply if possible and get something better. It's not worth the risk (of damaging your computer and/or blowing up and starting a fire) with cheap power supplies.
