Its okay. But rip if you plan on getting it. lol

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

Here's a review of it from JohnnyGuru: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story5&reid=185

seems decent but its not modular

 

 

Its decent, but I wouldnt get it over the one you have in your sig. 

 

 

It's good.

Needs context. Compared to other PSUs of the price range it's quite good, but would also depend on your location (other PSUs available). 

 

 

It's a good, entry level PSU. Whether or not, it is the best purchase for you would depend on the pricing / availability of other units, and as such, we need to know where you are buying from.

 

 

 

Im using it for my friends build!

Other PSU available in my country are CM G series PSUs and corsair VS / CX series....

And this is probably the best budget PSU that is able to fit into the budget

 

The build looks like this (prices are in SGD and i am getting from my local shop)

 

H97 PC mate MSI + g3258 (BB)= 212$
mx100 250gb (fuwell) = 159$
8gb ram (BB) = 92$
Seasonic s12ll 520w (fuwell) = 89$
CM n300 case (BB) = $70
Fan filter silverstone (xtreme solution) = 15$
R9 270X Vapor-X (both BB and fuwel)= 300$
 
Total = 937$
 
(I didnt get the h81m because it isnt available in my country anymore)
 
Let me know what you guys think of it (Try to suggest realistic improvements... I cant really supply you guys with the price list...)
Budget : 1000SGD
Uses: gaming (mainly CSGO)

The BBQ: i7-4770 / 212x / Tri-X R9 290x 1075/1400 / MSI H87-G43 GAMING / EVGA G2 850W / Corsair Spec 03 / Samsung 840 EVO 250gb SSD / Toshiba 2TB HDD / 8gb Kingston DDR3 1600mhz

The Cooler Master G550M? or the G500? If it's the G550M, it's a good option that I would recommend; however, I would go for the S12II Bronze if its the G500.
