Hey guys I found a deal for an RM650i for $80 (usd) new from a trusted supplier. Is it a good PSU? and is it worth the price?

If it's in like new condition then go ahead and buy it used. Otherwise, to be safe I'd get an EVGA GQ

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

You get emails from Fry's too, huh? ;)

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Just make sure it's shrink-wrapped. If it's not shrink wrapped, it's not new. Fry's has this habit of putting returned merchandise back on the shelf without doing much more than plugging it in to make sure it turns on. Sometimes they even remember to put a discount tag on it because it's returned, and sometimes you have to point out to the kid at the register that new laptops don't come with the screen protector stuck on upside down to get that 5% discount. ;)

I have an RM650i, solid power supply. Very good quality. I got mine for $50 extremely slightly used from a friend, but i'd gladly pay $80.
