It's a stretch, but let me know if you cannot make it.

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

Heads up, XFX´s XT series are a bad PSU, about same level as CX.

Damn. I got confused with the "XTFR" on their model name and thought they were the XTR series.

How bad are they? Are they of acceptable quality?

They´re the same as the CX. The non-gray ones.

XFX should be the last option for PSU choice anyway, EVGA, Corsair and Seasonic are the first choices you should always look at unless your budget really falls that low.

Not really. Under that logic, CX is a-okay.

Nothing under Gold certified is worth getting, so no that one is not okay. Especially bronze PSUs..

Again, what? Bronze is fine. The S12ll from Seasonic and B2 from EVGA are both examples of quality PSU units that are of bronze efficiency and are more than suitable for high end gaming builds.

If you build a high end PC using a bronze PSU then you are just as stupid as those marketing it.

 

"Fine" isn't okay. Dropping £1k into a mobo and GPU then running it off some shit PSU is beyond me.

Except it isn´t the efficiency of the PSU that makes it shit. It´s the over quality of the components and build.

Which usually get beefed up with the higher efficiency label. Not always though but I know the Platinum PSUs from EVGA and Seasonic have better internal components than their bronze variants.

Correct me if I´m wrong, but from what I´m understanding you´re saying the higher the efficiency, the better the quality of the unit?
