Which of the following PSU units is worth considering, if any?

 

DEEPCOOL DE600 V2 600W

DEEPCOOL PF600 600W

FSP GROUP HYPER PRO 650W

BE QUIET! SYSTEM POWER 10 650W

CORSAIR CV650 650W

KOLINK CORE 850W

 

Would a (more expensive) CORSAIR TX550M 500W be any better than the above?

Yeah , the TX is above those.
I would avoid the Kolink.

What country?

What budget?

Upgrade to existing build or is this a new build?

Sites/stores you are buying from?

 

If new build you can specify entire budget and usecase alongside a partslist if you have one. if this is an existing build then specify current psu inside of it, full specs, and why you wanna upgrade as it seems pretty common for ppl to just uneccesarily upgrade their psus when they dont even need an upgrade at all

 

Also i have no idea what prices those are at so no idea which to pick but out of that list of psus the be quiet and corsair are decent units

 

the kolink is crap simply because its a 672w unit (12v rail = 56a) masquerading as an 850w unit which means itll be overpriced, if its not overpriced and priced lower than any comparable 600/650w units might be worth considering

 

The fsp is likely also kinda crap, i mean its only 80+ and id wager that the 12v rail is gonna be quite underrated so itd be more like a 600w instead of a 650w irl

 

Corsair and be quiet are good units but quite pricey, pretty awful buy if you can get much cheaper units, but i have no idea of pricing so those would be my go to

 

Keep in mind all these psus will problably work fine for your build but im just calling some of em crap simply because value, whyd i pay 850w pricing for some stupid 672w, and whyd i pay 650w pricing for a god damn 600w and a mid one at that. But i exclusively rely on used psus which simply have far superior psus at a given price (instead of crappy 600w bronze at 50$ i can get used 850w gold like the rmx for 50$)

Maybe the better word is : If it's ultra cheap ? 🤣

Iunno, I don't think I can put much trust on a PSU that basically lie about their capacity. Especially for high load system.

 

But yeah, @OP . as @Somerandomtechyboi said, kinda depends on what you are going to use these PSU for.

Giving the pricing for each PSU & your PC spec will also help peoples give you an informed decision.

 

Side note : Btw Techyboi, not doing Panjat Pinang?  😛

Would CORSAIR TX550M 500W still be better than BE QUIET! PURE POWER 11 600W for roughly the same price?

Based on https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

Yes.

Also Pure Power 11 CM have an issue with older release about not being able to withstand transient power draw of some mid-high end GPUs.

Yes, better platform, better quality. But for an ACRF unit the Pure Power 11 is not bad. It's one of the best ACRF there is. The 500w can run a system with RTX 3070. It's on the edge but it keeps running.

Is there anything as good as the TX550M at a better price?
