What Power Supply?

[Fluffybakon]

Hello all,

 

Im badly in need of a quality power supply for my build this summer, with 3 conditions applying to my choice:

 

1: I would like it to be from a supplyer with good customer service and good quality products

 

2:under 75 euros

 

3:be available from one of the following : prodimex.ch    , alza.sk     , amazon.fr

 

I know this is demanding, but you guys are great

 

Thanks a lot,

 

-Lukas

Was typing a reply when you added you needed a 600w PSU, now I would recommend something like a Corsair, I checked out a few of the links and found a suitable 600w PSU,

https://www.amazon.fr/Corsair-CP-9020048-EU-Builder-Bronze-Alimentation/dp/B009D79Z9I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493819759&sr=8-1&keywords=corsair+600w

Now it's slightly above budget but as a previous owner of one, I can pretty much guarantee the quality and power efficiency. It will be enough to power your Ryzen and GTX 1060. Its not semi/fully modular so if that is something you are looking for to help with cable management unfortunately I doubt there is much in your price range in that area, but I hope this helps.

Not necessarily, the G1 units aren't good.

 

They make some bad bronze, white, and 80+ units. If I had choose one manufacturer that made pretty much all good PSUs it'd be Seasonic.

Ew green sticker unit bad quality.

This one:

CXM grey sticker units are also good. As well as EVGA B2 units.

Will 520 watts be enough for a 1060, ryzen 5 1600 and a wraith spire?

Old, replaced mediocre PSU.

600W of solid SeaSonic-OEM power

Alternatively get a Seasonic M12II EVO

A quality 450w will be plenty to power that system.

 

If you want to get a higher wattage unit, I would recommend the Corsair Vengeance 550M.

It's slightly over your budget, but it's a very good modern PSU. It's better than the mentioned XFX XT 600 and Seasonic M12II-B 620w EVO units.

Massive +1 for this, couldn't find one on PCPP 

 

Upgraded Grey CXM, better caps and multiple rails

It also uses a better rifle bearing fan instead of the traditional sleeved bearing type on the CXM.

I would suggest the one above as well its a high tier power supply

i have a g1 and theres nothing wrong with it, ive had it for nearly 2 years.

Doesn't mean that it's as good as other units.

 

The quality isn't as good as many other PSUs. I believe @STRMfrmXMN once said, "The G1 PSUs are designed to last for 10 years, but not for your components to last for 10 years."

 

Just because it's been good for you for 2 years doesn't mean it will be good for you for 4 years.

thats like any psu though... and like anything else.

[AntonChigurh]

Corsair RMx 550W. I know it's not 600w, but close enough. it's only $50 USD

 

edit: Nevermind turns out it's ~100 euros. Too much

While the FSP build G1 isn't a bad PSU, it isn't a good one either. It's quite a mediocre power supply in everything other than it high efficiency and it being fully modular. This is because it's design would yield poor voltage regulation, ripple suppression, and response to transient loads. It's also can be on the loud side at mid to high loads as the fan can ramp up over 2000RPMs.

 

If you already have it, it's not bad that you should feel the need to replace it; however, if anyone is in the market for a new PSU, I wouldn't go with the G1 as they are usually better options they can get.

Not true... Some PSUs are less likely to do that, some are more. The G1 is overpriced since better quality PSUs (GQ, B2, S12ii/M12ii, etc.) are cheaper if not the same price. The G1 is overpriced for the quality it brings to the table.

i paid £65 for my g1, a g2 is £83.

 

and yes it is true, you cant guarantee a life span on anything.
