Hey, I'm new here. Is SUPER FLOWER 650W LEADEX II good or Corxair Txm 650w or Corsair Rm650? Any recommendation??

Check where they are on the list. That should give you an idea.

@LukeSavenije Thanks for your vigilant work on this project to provide this service to the community.

 I know there is a ton of hatershit going on here, but some of us very much appreciate it.

What abut TX850M (bronze -  the older one, not gold). Is it any good?

few years back. It sits in my old case, not sure about the mfg date etc. as i would have to unscrew it from the case.

it look exact like the one in the link above  - i know it's not 2017 Gold, but older with only Bronze Certification

well... there are two txms, and another two tx's

 

so i can hardly say which it is

[sokzkota]

okay. i will take it out of the case then someday. Thanks!

TLDR guys if you don't know IT JUST WORKS and i have BIOS GPU stress tests and CPU stress tests to back it up with the voltage readings

what?

[Tadej Danev]

Just got GX-550 today....damn it's small which is great Loved it.

[Ritsuka]

So, I'm going to be building a multigpu system for blender and I was wondering where would the phanteks revolt x fall on the list? Is the revolt x comparable to the cooler master v-platinum?

You seem kinda ranty about this "Tier-D" power supply of yours, care to help make more sense out of your posting and actually TELL us what model, since you seem so keen on sharing about it?

that's neat  are you sure you didn't just throw the word "BIOS" in there to make that sound fancier?  Cuz not sure how you stress test a GPU Bios.

To confirm that a power supply you own, is currently able to supply voltage to your CPU while it's under a stress test?  That's super neat also.  That clearly contradicts any idea that there was ever a PSU manufactured that has better design or performance than whatever that is.

Given the number of really solid to great PSU's that end up in Tier D, it wouldn't shock me at all if he was right. The list in its current form is a joke.

Funny, the people who love to hate on this list go out of their way to throw shade at it, but don't like to contribute ideas or be constructive.  Haters 'gon hate eh?

I contribute ideas all the time.  So do most of the other critics.   They are simply ignored.  Which especially shocking when you consider how knowledgeable some of the critics are.

let me say something as simple as this

 

i do nothing with complaints anymore, as they don't contribute in any way

 

constructive change can be done, but otherwise you can go on all you want, but that would rather increase the chance of getting ignored rather than i'd actually make work out of it.

 

and seeing you called me a liar, my work bs and i've explained multiple times why your precious units are in it's place, i'm done

[Gegger]

For fricks sake luke and his gang are just trying to make and maintain a project to help people

 

if you can't be civil or/and have constructive feedback please leave

 

same with those who hate on the tier list just because it's not perfect

 

i'm sure luke+friends are trying, and if you don't like it, make one yourself

Yeah sorry but your "contributions" have amounted to

"List sux delete it"

And

"Seasonic rulz"

So I'm not sure what you're doing is in any way constructive.

We asked you, very politely, in the last tier list thread, to share your ideas and received no response. So... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We don't even have to leave tonight's post to put that claim to rest.  Four hours ago, in the thread titled "Rosewill PHOTON 50W vs Corsair RM650x PSU?" I wrote:

 

"The tier lists in this forum are a hot mess and barely worth considering. The Corsair RMx should be at least a tier up and has a solid advantage over the Photon." 

 

 

There you go.  An example of a clear and actionable information that will be ignored like all the others.  I didn't even have to leave this evenings posts to prove you wrong.  And Fasauceome, you posted in that thread.  I have a lot more where that came from.  Just give the word and I will happily quote them for you going back two months. I could also restate all those criticisms and suggestions if you wish.  But claiming that I wasn't offering them is just bizarre.

You never listened to the criticisms to begin with.  How is this any different than before?

 

I think you are confusing me with one of the many others who criticized the list.  I never called you a liar and I don't recall calling your work BS either.

It's whack complaining about failed protections, when the failures seem to be when someone significantly overloads a power supply. If something is failing in an expected environment then yeah it should be lambasted, but no one should be surprised something fails when you completely disregard every bit of common sense surrounding its use. Power supply calculators exist for a reason.
