My power supply has gone bad again (keeps shutting down under heavy loads and power button not working unless I flick the power button on the psu). I bought this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393445757927 as it seems to be good value. I think i remeber great wall having some quality units before. Anyone know ift this is junk or not?

According to PSU Tier List, its a good PSU. And i do like Great Wall even though im more of a Super Flower stud.

It appears to be a decent power supply going just off of the PSU Tier List. I've heard the same about Great Wall PSUs being absolute shit and to avoid. But like any other PSU manufacturer; a PSU manufacturer will have both really good PSUs and absolute junk PSUs.

As an OEM, GreatWall is a very good OEM 🙂

 

E series use the same platform as the Corsair TX650M or lower. But I don't know what the difference is inside.
