Is the evga 600b bronze psu reliable?

[aren332]

I bought this psu used on ebay for around 50$, how reliable will it be? Is it a good model? Also i know its not modular and the cable sleeves are bad but thats not a problem for me.

Exact model?

Was it new with warranty, or used? If used or not authorized seller, it literally could be in any condition......

exact model is evga 600 B1 80+ bronze. The seller has a good rating and he said it was pulled from a working pc. No warranty

Then the expected remaining life could be a day, or years. Could have been in a non-ventilated case at 100% load 24/7.... Or under better conditions.

It's a bad unit, Tier E in https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/ and $50 is way overpriced, even when it was brand new. There are better units available in the US for about the same price, brand new, like https://pcpartpicker.com/product/xQpmP6/thermaltake-smart-bm2-550-w-80-bronze-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-ps-spd-0550mnfabu-1 and https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ntxRsY/bitfenix-formula-bronze-600-w-80-bronze-certified-atx-power-supply-bp-fb600ulcb-7r
