[EOL] PSU Tier List rev. 14.8

[Aresiel]

Does the CX650M fall under CX Gray - CS-m Gold on the psu tier list? If not, the CX750 and CX650 should right?

 

Also, does the Cooler Master MWE Gold 650 Full modular fall under Cooler Master | MWE Gold - Reactor Gold - V Gold 2018 <=650W on the list?

I have a Powerspec 650BSM PSU and lost the modular cables for it. Does anyone have a pinout for this power supply or compatible manufacturer cords?

That doesn't belong in this thread.

enermax Revolution D.F. 850w seems to have PWR_OK Inactive to DC Loss Delay (ms) = 0,3 which is less than 1 (but greater than zero).

Im wandering if that affects its rating in the list..

Also is Twister Bearing Fan something like magnetic levitation bearing?

More like rifle/hydraulic bearing with a magnet slapped on for some reason. 160k MTBF looks good enough tho.

Is there any actual problem or concern for Super Flower LEADEX V? or is it just lack of information/reviews?

Given the V2.52 version number, I would assume these are updated to meet ATX 2.52 demands, similar to RM 2019 vs. RMx.

How relevant is the difference between RM and RMx for end users?  I read the topic on it and I don't get the majority of it

i have a 3090 fe and i have my system hooked up to a sine wave ups, nothing else connected to it, and it has a real time wattage monitor. i've seen peaks of 670 watts for my entire systems draw. i don't think its responsive enough to catch those super fast transient spikes, but the fact it picks up peaks up to 670 watts i can completely believe transient spikes are pulling it up to over 700.

 

i have it paired up with a 10850k, but i enforce intel's stock reference for it. no more than 125 watts sustained on the P1. take out my 3090 fe, my entire system draws roughly 220 watts. that's pegging the 3090 fe at around 450ish watts at those 670 peaks.

 

so i can see people with 750 watt units having problems if the units have a very conservative ocp / opp setting. take my 10850k, leave it on auto settings, that thing will draw close to 200 watts in bf:v. take 450 watt spikes on a 3090 fe, 200 watts from the cpu, you're already at 650 watts before the other stuff in the system is added and ignoring any super fast transient spikes on both the cpu and gpu.

 

which i may ask, do you know if it was the newer GX focus units or the older line? newer GX were post to have a higher tolerance for transient spikes. i also wonder how the newer prime gx / px / tx (2020 line) would handle it as well.

 

They just never said what it was.

 

But I did see one of the new Focus TX that was working.

RM:

+ more efficient at low loads

- louder

 

RMx:

+ quieter

- in cable caps

Also the RM doesn't have all Japanese caps, the RMX does.

I was mainly noting what a consumer would notice here between them, there is a quality difference internally, but not a huge one

Yeah, I know, was just pointing it out.

What model is my Seasonic S12II 520 watts 80 plus bronze, 5 years warranty, my label is blue not black and i havent logo of s in under cooler the psu, i have ss520gb in my two computers is the s12 with uvp problems or ss?

SSR-GB Bronze is the platform name that Seasonic uses to refer to it for the retail version/possibly the internal platform name. this model in the list is noted as s12ii bronze x20, found in low priority tier D

 

edit: @Juular got mad and me and said I should call it something else

What does it mean when a PSU is in Tier D? I have a Cougar VTX700 (came with a pre-built) and it's in Tier D, so I'm wondering if it could potentially cause problems in the future.

[HasnaiinPC]

So I have an Evga GS 850W which is about 4.5 years old and was wondering if I should RMA/Replace it. So while I was playing Red dead redemption 2 the PC kept turning off completely after 5-10 minutes and was getting kernel 41 power errors in event viewer. I would then have to unplug the PSU before it would turn back on so this seems like some sort of protection in work right? So basically I saw in a reddit thread someone say to keep x1/afterburner open as it manages power to the GPU more consistently than windows and the crashes have gone. So does my PSU still need replacing or should I just stick with it.  CPU is 3700x and GPU is 3080 FE.

They're only sold in Indonesia these days.

 

Shame really.  Used to be a huge brand.  Loved their cases.

@LukeSavenije Time to add EVGA GS to the list. Yes, you need to replace it, as it doesn't work well with RTX3080 transients and it was meh PSU to start with. Wait a minute, 850W is Seasonic KM3 platform ... so it shutdowns too ?

Basically that means that unless you have a very cheap second-hand build or your CPU and GPU are very low-end (like APU / CPU with iGPU) then you shouldn't use it.

I was only crashing in RDR2, tried COD, Metro Exodus ect no crashing at all. What's weird is that having Afterburner open fixed the issue for some reason.

[Redicat]

My 

Antec VP700P still did not blow up! all voltage, FINE. 

 

So yeah. idk. im not NA in Europe so i use 230V ONLY (rofl)
