system:
i7 920
p6t deluxe
1060 gtx vga

Vitsuba 600w Generic, 10 years using it, still working, but cant handle a modern GPU, just handle 9800 gt

EVGA 500W, still running after 5 years, even survived to overclocks ( using it in this momment )

coolermaster 500 w 600w 850w
each one failed each year of use in
i7 920 p6t deluxe 9800 gt, after 570 gtx and never tested with 1060 gtx because they got burned and in one of them, opened to check what happened and saw a strange brown insect, and of course, capacitors exploted

STRIKE X 850w aerocool. used it for 2 years, even with overclock, everything fine, just accidently bought a 500w evga in 2014, and started to use it.


whats your experience?

my brother has a powercooler running in his computer from 2009 to today, never had a problem, is powercooler the best?, it can even hold a modern gpu, and it didnt say nothing about 80 plus bronze, or silver, it is too old for that, it just looks like a normal powercooler PSU

Between Seasonic and EVGA I think. Or corsair. Depends on model though.

In my experience Corsair is best, they are very reliable and have upto 10 years of guarantee (not just warranty) depends on psu models. In my country their service is very good. If your PSU gets any kind of problem, no repair, you get new sealed packed unit from them.
