That PSU. Get rid of it.

[ThatOneRussian]

A proper psu something like the g2 or p2

[SPAS-ID]

Change the PSU to EVGA G2/GS or XFX Pro Gold

[Ddave]

Aside from the PSU, this felt like a humbebrag.  :lol:

[Amazingasian]

The CX is fine for lower end builds but for a 980Ti get a RM or a G2

what do you mean?

[LeapFrogMasterRace]

I would rather have a Supernova b2 than a rm

[SPAS-ID]

Fine for short amount of use not lower end, and it avaliable on 850W which is 980Ti support it basicly a bad PSU

Its Good

[Ddave]

what do you mean?

I mean you rig looks nice, except for the PSU.

Nothing bad really.

[X99stattrak]

I have a rm 850 and the fan only turns on while benchmarking cpu

[GDRRiley]

No is fine for a 400-700$ system and will last for a few years minimum: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/power-supply-units

If you're going to spend that much on system please get better than the lowest end of a manufacturer. Get a rm550 or something equivalent In evga, for the power quality, acoustics and longevity

A CX or CS is fine no need to spend almost a 100$ on a PSU for a 600$. That is waste of money that could got towards a better PSU

Dang, poor guy

[Khajiit Dealer]

I have a CX750M for a higher-end rig and it's just fine. Pay no attention to the CX meme.

There is horrid power ripples know with them, they make heat, and are lower end psu's made with less intent on lasting very long.

CX PSU's are fine (especially the modular ones) with the exception of heat tolerance.

Linus would highly disapprove as the fan spins all the time :-)

Let's put it this way, it's not going to fry your components. It's Tier 3 out of 5, so it's not the greatest but it's not a fire hazard as many here would have you believe. The heat tolerance is the big issue.
