New PSU under 50$

[Sa1tama]

Hello! As the title says, I am looking for a 600W PSU under 50USD. I don't want to get a used one from Ebay, so Amazon is the only choice. 

I looked and found this PSU: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014W3EMAO/ref=twister_B07RBCD515?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Is this a good choice?

What are you using it for?

I wouldn't go for it.

I'd stick with the CX450:

Impossible to tell without knowing what the PSU is for.

group reg, I'd look for something else

 

that cx that @NunoLava1998 linked is a good choice, but feel free to ask about any other units you find

I believe you are asking the specs of the computer; In that case:

CPU: i5 3570

Mobo: Asus P8H61-M LX3 R2.0

Ram: HyperX DDR3 8x1gb 1866mhz

GPU: GTX 1050

HDD: Toshiba 1TB 

 

I know that this parts don't require 600 watts, but I am planning to build a new rig with ryzen and an RX580, so I want to buy a good PSU now and use it in the future rig.

Assuming this is going in a computer the one thing you don't want to cheap-out on is the PSU. 600W for $50 is pushing your luck quite a bit that it'll be a reliable unit.

Yeah, I know, but it is really hard for me to save money, plus, I noticed a really good deal on RX 580 and I don't want to miss it.

BTW, the PSU I am using now is a ticking bomb, which might explode at any moment, so I really need to get a new one as fast as possible.

Yeah, i had a friend with a low end thermaltake psu like that and if i remember correctly it kept rebooting the pc until it exploded? Not sure on the explosion part but it sure got replaced lol

Well if you can try to use the PSU Tier List as a guide here:

I think I heard @LukeSavenije was working on some list? Maybe there's another one I should be pointing you to?

just get a CX550 and you are set for any consumer config.

yeah, it's an adition to it, not a replacement

 

and as you may note, i'm still in the team, and will continue to be. it's pretty much just an advanced version
