The design used in Thermaltake Smart SE 530W is known to shut down when you use top-end graphics cards with it, like GTX980, 1070, 2070 and the like. It's also not so stable in general. If you want to be sure you won't have problems, you should upgrade to a higher quality PSU.

Yes, it's a good choice.

Corsair CX or if you can find a seasonic focus go for it. Seasonic makes the best PSUs and you cant go wrong with them (I know i sound like a fanboy but better safe than sorry).

I have which is why I said to go for a Focus or something newer, to my knowing they don't have those problems (except the Focus+ shutdown problems with high end gpus)

That I did not know. Hopefully the new Focus PX/GX fixed that.

the gm, px, gx and sgx shouldn't have the problems
