I just bought a new PSU called  Aerocool Lux 550w 80bronze plus, It was cheap, so I bought it because it was from Aerocool, but after reading some reviews about it, I had a bad feeling about it because some people said that it burned out and ruined their computer parts, but on Amazon, its rating was good, and the majority said it was good.

So should I use it ? If its bad should I use it for few months and replace it? 

I have : i7-4790 + rtx 3060 + 16gb ram

The average reviewer on amazon has knowledge limited to: "it turns on", "it doesn't turn on".

A PSU burning in 30% of cases has 70% of people happy, is it good ? 😄

The unit is of very low quality, group regulated, terrible voltage regulation and lack of protections. I wouldn't trust a 3060 to it.
