Then you can go down to the 400 or 450W, as there are hardly any decent quality PSU with lower wattages than that.

The only example is the FSP-250-60EGA.
That is a decent quality, 250W Gold PSU...

Its the only one as it requires a lot of work and PSU aren't that important in most people's minds.

Not everything, but everything reasonably priced. And your List is Private...

Anyway, personally I'd get higher quality units such as Bitfenix Formula, Whisper M, be quiet Straight Power 11, all...

Because we are the best of the best and look behind the Marketing Propaganda and also consider other factors that the Reviewers don't consider.


*sigh*
So you're saying that 20k Keysight Scopes...

Ad Hominems/personal Attacks are not good.
If you ask, there will be people telling you its bad for many reasons.


The difference is that an 8 Core CPU gives you an advantage, a 1000W PSU in a...

Only if we are talking about two completely different units.

FOr example be quiet Dark Power Pro P11, 550-750W vs 850W
Or the old Corsair RMx/i with up to 650W and 750-1000W.

That are two...

Attachments don't attach ;)
The Cases with PSU Shroud are fine, if there is an option to mount a fan in front of the PSU and blow through it...

But then again: a PSU with a fan has the advantage...

Nope, you are misunderstanding what I'm saying...


No, I'm saying that the 750W causes more damage because of more current and/or can cause damage due to not beeing able to detect faults as...

It follows physics.
YOur mistake is to think of PSU as some time of Motor. FOr example your car. A 230hp car might be quieter at 130kph than a 90hp one because its reving not as high.

But we're...

Yes, Multi Rail is that, wich is why I recommended those units and no other.
That is also similar to your breaker box.
You have the Transformer generating the power, then a couple of resistors or...

Yes but the release Price of both was far beyond 500€.
VEGA64 was just sold for cheap (V64 for 350-400€, V56, wich is specified at 210W, for ~200€), but that is the exception.

The 16 Core Ryzen...

Yes, its rather loud, protection is meh and there are simply other/better options for the money...


Yeah but when did you see an increase in power consumption?? The Performance is something the...

True, getting a better quality PSU is more futureproofing than getting a higher wattage one.

I hate the Term "futureproof" because there is no such thing in the PC World!
Nobody here knows how long you might or might not be able to use a technology/form factor.

And "moar watt" doesn't...

That is not true.
Its just, converted, ~5€ more than in Germany. So that is a very good price, wich converts to 68USD or 62€


Debatable...
For ~500W, both are fine, the be quiet however has...

Is that the stuff you already own or plan to get??

If you don't have it:
I'd not get a liquid cooling system and a decent "Air Cooler" such as an NH-U14S (if it fits but it should) or even...

Increasing the Efficiency of your components (ie reducing the Clockrates by 5-10% can reduce the power consumption of that part by up to 20%), if you want to save so much, has more of an effect than...

What PSU do you have?
What CPU do you have?

There are some used RX570 options for under 100€ available, though card used for mining....

I'd prefer one of the other units Mask listed because of the PCIe/CPU COnnectors of wich the RM550x only has two.
Meaining if you want a higher power GPU, you have to use one connector on the PSU,...

Depends on the money, what you have.
In general, the Ryzens are pretty good and with the new RDR2 Benchmarks you see that lower end Intel can suck in that game for whatever reason (well, the ones...

I'm not a fan of AIO Water things. I don't trust them at all and they don't seem to be that reliable.
I'd rather spend the money on a big block of Metal that just works and has no moving parts...
...

Its hardly the case anymore, you're basing your infos on pre-Zen2 area "hearsay", today the difference between Intel and AMD is small.
But you lose SMT, wich can give you a huge advantage.

And if...

Can't you do it non destructive with Electrical tape?

The fan RPM is rather high...


But why is the Intake Temperature much higher than the output?? THat's weird...
And even though: Why do it at all??
You only need to do that for higher loads...

Are there even HDDs that need 3,3V??

I heard that there might eventually be some discs that might need it, never seen that label though...
