power supply help needed

[StalePie42]

hello I live in Portugal and am in need of a power supply for my new build budget is 50 to 80 euros and I would like at least 650 watts 

thanks in advance

650W under 80 euro? Easy as eating pancakes.

(Modular, 65$, 650W, low-noise)

 

Also, I feel that you're thinking that PSU price is high?

The problem is that that model is not available here

Msi mpg, Enermax revolution D.F.,... are good substitutes.

 

Kinda odd since I helped someone a couple weeks ago and they found them no problem.

Doesn't look like you have much options (could be due to PCPP not listing everything).

 

If 550w is okay then I suggest a Bitfenix Whisper M.

 

If not get a Kolink Enclave 700w. It doesn't look like the best unit but it's good enough for most systems.

 

What parts are you powering with it?

That's a good unit. Should work great for the system you listed in your previous post

Merged into your power supply thread, please keep it to one.

is bitfenix a reliable company?

No...  no it isn't.  Stick with mainstream brands only.  ie. Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA etc.

 

Use the tier list for goodness sake.  If it isn't on there, then NEVER buy it.

It's not on the tier list, and that's my point to NOT buy it.  How can you not understand simple language?

Bit Fenix IS on the tier list.

Very quiet unit.

My mistake.  I figured that such a sketchy unknown brand would never be on the list.

Maybe unknown for you but not for a lot of other people.

[StalePie42]

do I get any added reliability from the corsair psu or are they about the same?

They're both great PSUs. Disadvantage of the Bitfenix Formula Gold 750w is the non modulairity so you have to manage a lot of unused cables in the case.

Bit - Fenix : Abit - Pheonix.

The Prodigy was quite a popular case when it launched.

The name rings a bell now, but would you ever use one of their power supplies?

Sure. If I had limited availability because it only has a 5 year warranty and so many similar/similar priced PSUs have 7 or 10 year warranties.  But the lack of warranty doesn't mean it's an inferior product (reference Tommy Boy clip)

 

 

It's a modified CWT GPS and GPU platforms.  Better than a lot of PSUs out there.  Aris seemed to like it too:

Absolutely. They use CWT an an OEM. Decent to very good platforms. Yes, the warranty is rather short but it's a function of the price/margins, not quality. In addition to what's available now they seem to be preparing another model based on CWT CTT platform which should be (unless they/CWT fuck something up) up there on par or very close to Corsair HX, i.e better than anything Seasonic for example. But we'll see if that's the case when reviews come out. Next time try to Ctrl-F the brand you're sweeping under the rug when linking the tier list it's listed on at the top positions (and was there from the start).
