Hello there, I am Jack.

I am a teenager from Britian and my currency is pounds (GBP £).

I have around £600-650 willing to go slightly over if I HAVE to.

 

I am aiming for 1080p, 60fps gaming. I also want a nice black, blue or white looking system and something that looks nice with cable management.

 

I already have a monitor (1) and keyboard and mouse.

My current build;

Hit me up.

As mentioned already, that board has "bazooka" in the name because when you start it up it blows up! xD

 

Really though it is a very low quality board which can hurt your CPU and RAM overclocking considerably.

It cannot hurt anything except overclocked R7 or 1600 at really high voltage and even then the chance of killing the CPU is pretty low, although chance of killing the mobo is pretty high xD

 

Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM

ahh yes, the customer review section where half the bad posts are isolated DOAs and the other half are customers who don't know shit about what they're talking about, not to mention the good posts where a good lot of them just throw out 5-stars simply for it working for a few seconds. and not to mention this is just 600 out of god-knows how many millions of units out in the wild.

Unfortunately, you are wrong.

CXM's are considered good budget PSU's.

Reading amazon reviews doesn't count as reading reviews lmfao.

Read Tom's Hardware, etc. Reviewer's who actually know their shit and aren't random people who may not know jack shit about PSUs.

Yes, every PSU (even top of the line ones) have lemons, such is life.

Current System Specs:

CPU: Intel I5-7660K; CPU Cooler: Coolermaster Hyper 212X; Thermal Paste: IC Diamond 7 Carat; Motherboard: MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon;

RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2 x 8gb) DDR4 - 2400; SSD Storage: 1TB Samsung 850 EVO; Storage: 2TB Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm;

GPU: Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1070 8gb G1 Gaming; Case: NZXT Phantom 530 Black; PSU: EVGA Supernova G2 650W 80+ Gold, OS: Windows 10 Home

No.  Not everyone knows they're "faulted".  Failure rate on them is less than 2%.  

 

How you ended up with two bad ones in a row...  *shrug*  Either user error or shipping damage.
