Posted July 14, 2017 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 I once did the unthinkable, back many headphones ago... I split an audio split, again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...
