That's a bad idea. Cheap PSUs are usually built with time bomb capacitors and/or combustible PCBs. Figuring out wattage is step one. Step two is finding a well-reviewed PSU from a reputable manufacturer that fits your wattage needs and won't explode. Step three is adjusting your system configuration because you only left $30 for a power supply to run your 1080 Ti setup, and maybe your priorities were in the wrong place. Step four is buying the right PSU, step five is ???? and step six is profit.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

 

Hypnotoad's RAM is dying, his motherboard is acting like the 6-year-old AsRock it is, a couple of SATA ports have just stopped working, but the RGB remains. The RGB always remains. Hypnotoad lives. All glory to the Hypnotoad.

I would personally step back and generally reserch PSU's and get a feel for there prices and then see where you can cut back.

 

Most PUS I've seen are around $100. But that's for an 850w in my research. which most people don't actually need. Most people need a 550w power supply.

TBH I would not call the MiJ the "best", that award would go to the AX1600i or maybe the Signature...
