New PSU

[thelittleidot]

I'm looking for a new power supply because mine sounds like a ps4 if it was drugged up while playing cyberpunk... looking for a good unit between 600-700 watts with black cables, preferably some form of modular (doesn't really matter if its semi or full) in the 40-60 dollar price point. I know that Corsair, EVGA, and Seasonic are well made, and EVGA seems to fit that price point. Any suggestions?

Ok... What for? PC? Spec? Is it the one in your signature?

I don't really have the budget to go higher right now, the PC isn't my only expense, also yes it is.

Considering the CXF... won't scramble to buy it instantly though.

You can check the list out, then shop around.

If it comes down to having to save $10 - $20, then maybe go non modular.

How is the Powerspec loud?  The fan spins up fast?  Does it spin at the same speed all of the time?  In that 4000D, is it mounted fan up or fan down?  If fan down, what kind of surface is the PC on (shelf, carpet, etc.)  How hot is it in the room you're using the PC in?

 

You do realize that $60 is even less than what the Powerspec PSU you're wanting to replace costs, right?
