Hx1000i refurbished

[StripperGrandpa]

So I got a hx1000i from new egg I was originally looking at the rm1000. And saw this for $20-40 cheaper and was like ohh ok. I don't mind refurbished parts...

 

 

so I ordered it last night 

 

then looked on amazon to see if the deal was similar because I work there and get a 10% discount,  but turns out the new price for that psu is over $220....  my mouth dropped and I couldn't buy from newegg fast enough

why do you need a 1000 watt PSU?

I, personally purchased a of my 1000W PSU specifically for the efficiency curve at its best in most PSUs at 50%, and with my system drawing around 475W to 500W, it was awesome as the included fan will never decide to kick in too

still a waste of money paying for a 1000watt PSU, you could have spent that elsewhere.

I have nothing else better at this very current moment to spend of my money on, considering I don't plan to purchase a second hand motherboard ever again, and VEGA is another few months away at most I would say. My CPU is all if not approaching overkill grounds for my game requirements, and RAM isn't something I can upgrade without upgrading my motherboard...
