Need help choosing a psu

[Gio10287]

What’s a good and reliable psu for a 3600 and 3060ti ? I’ve gotten the cx650w from Corsair recommended but I’ve heard that they’re unreliable. I’m looking for a semi modular at least and if possible under 100 USD

Fractal Design Ion PSU's are good. 

 

I have a 660w one. Out of stock @ newegg now, but it will probably be back.

I am currently building a pc and I have a Corsair Rm650x 80+gold Fully modular and I have had no issues so far +Its 80+gold.

honestly a good 550W unit would work. A RMX, TXM Gold, Pure Power CM, are all great exaples.

The RTX3060Ti with the 5 3600 alone will be pulling out about 397.5 if you count the spikes aswell, so this is absolutely reasonable and perfect.

cx 650m will be good enough. no need to get another unit

Don't pick a double forward psu like CXM with nVidia Ampere. The powerspikes causing coilwine.

3060 ti does not have really powerspikes. also coil whine is always there, but its pretty much luck if you get that or not with high power draw

It's CX 650 or CX 650 M? I believe you said CX 650 which is good enough for a 3060 Ti. No need to replace it unless you have problems.

 

Where did you hear that it has reliability problems?

[Gio10287]

Ok so I decided to go for the cx650 since I’m on kind of on a low budget for a psu and I think I misheard about others saying it wasn’t reliable but you guys say it’s solid so I’ll go with it, thanks guys
