What's the best PSU you've ever had?

What's the best power supply you've ever had the pleasure of using? Doesn't matter the price, the intended market, or when you got it.

 

For me, it's the Corsair 750TX, which I'm still using today. I bought it in 2008, and even though I had two that were DOA, the third has been going smoothly for all these years (knock on wood)! I almost don't want to upgrade or anything because I want to see just how long it's going to stay around.

The best psu i've used?
EVGA 600b

It's the only PSU I have ever used that is 80+ bronze and from a reputatable company

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

The best PSU I've ever had is the Rosewill RP600V2-S-SL 600W

 

It is now a little noisy, but my dad bought at least 6 (and more further down the road) in 2007-8, and all still function to this day under for the most part, daily use throughout those years.

I think this takes the cake :)

 

 

I also use a EVGA G2 850W now, so I can run it passively or power a beastly rig.

For the Best builds and Price lists here is a world where many points of the price have been predefined already for your convenience!

The Xeon E3 1231 V3 IS BETTER Than the Core i5 4690K and a Significantly better value for the non-overclockers or value shoppers.

The OS is like a kind food, Try it before saying if you like it or don't.

Up until I had my current EVGA 550GS I had shitty units. I've built one system with a Corsair RMi and its my favorite PSU to date.

|PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.

850g2 it's been phenomenal for me... 

 

Silence is a huge part of my pc build and never ever hearing this cpu even when pulling near 90% load through it (after efficiency loss) even hearing light bulbs before it has been a huge boon to me. 

 

It was the first nonshit psu I used though.
