power supply Should I Upgrade / Replace My PSU

[Pisces2049]

Hello all, I’m simply curious about my desktops current PSU, which is an ATNG ATM-600FB; the stock PSU of a C series CyberPowerPC desktop from 2015. Simply put, I’m having no issues, I’ve kept it as clean as possible (there’s still dust in it but mainly on the fan and components just above the fan), however this is a stock off-brand PSU from either Korea or China, and I have no idea where to find its rating (it does say 80+ on the PSU, but not if it’s bronze or anything like that.), and I’m curious how often you guys replace Power Supplies; should I replace this one? Is this PSU not as bad as I’m thinking or will it burn hotter than Gordon Ramsey on Hell’s Kitchen? Thank you all. Peace .

Efficiency isn't quality tho

If you're ever thinking "should I change the PSU" the answer is almost always yes. Especially since it's already 5 years old.
