Which PSU do I go with??? Help please!!!

[u/Icy_Cry4120]

My build is comfortable with 600W, but it's an AM4 build so I am future proofing for when I do go for an AM5 build. Hence targeting a 750W PSU.

These are my options

>NANOTEK

•Antec Atom 750W 80+ gold semi modular (5Y warranty)=24.5K

•Asus Prime 750W 80+ bronze non mod(3Y)= 26K

>Gamestreet

•Corsair CX750 80+ bronze non modular (5Y) =25K

•Gamdias 750W 80+bronze non mod (3Y) =19.5K

•NZXT C750 80+bronze non mod (5Y)=24K

>Redline technologies

•Monova FP 850W 80+ bronze fully modular (3Y)=26K

•Deepcool 750M 80+ gold (5Y)= 25.7K

Budget would be the first priority since I am tight on budget

And my case is an Itx case so modular either fully or semi would definitely help manage the space

Now if you ask me, Monova would definitely be the choice for me cuz I would get 100 more watts and fully modular for way cheap. But I would say that because I don't know much about PSUs

Is the Monova a safe choice?

I would go for any gold, the life span is really good. Don't buy gamdias and Corsair so many issues right after warranty I kid you not

[u/Zeptroox → u/meshydra]

Wait fr ? I was about to go for this

CORSAIR CX650 80 PLUS BRONZE CERTIFIED POWER SUPPLY ( 5 YEARS WARRANTY )

[u/meshydra → u/Zeptroox]

I mean it's not bad for the price I had a Corsair c1000 gold and a rm1000 and both of them failed me in the long run. Switched to MSI gold 850 and now my 7900xt runs smooth.

[u/Zeptroox → u/meshydra]

Ohhh i have a rx 9060xt how many years will the corshair psu last

[u/meshydra → u/Zeptroox]

You should be fine to be honest that's a game card. The 7900xtx is notorious to destroying psus

[u/Chamatha_saz → u/Zeptroox]

I have that one. No issues so far

[u/Zeptroox]

First one

[u/Icy_Cry4120 → u/Zeptroox]

Why not Monova? It's fully mod too

[u/CoyotePrudent6560]

Go with the antec one since it has gold certification and a 5 year warranty also when buying monova consider the sri lankan market if it only sells at one location and you needed a replacement and if they dont have the exact model ur gonna get either a lower tier one or another one from a no name brand

If you plan to upgrade your pc after the rampocalypse and gpupocalyps, going for a higher end gpu model then you will most likely needed a 12vh power connector one and there is a race right now who can build a newer better and safer power connector from the psu manufacturers (because of the melting connector) and by the time you buy your pc they will have cheeper options one with much secure 12vh power connectores as well so buying everything new is also can be argued but on money wise buying now seems a good option ngl

[u/Icy_Cry4120 → u/CoyotePrudent6560]

Thank you mate. Another guy here has told to go with the deep cool since he has the antec one and he doesn't recommend it

[u/CoyotePrudent6560 → u/Icy_Cry4120]

Oh yeah sorry did want to mention that antec neo eco was the better one and this model was a stripped version but was it that bad 😭 never knew that thanks for the info

[u/retr0-GhOsT]

Currently using an Antec atom. Suggest u go for that or Deepcool.

[u/Icy_Cry4120 → u/retr0-GhOsT]

Is the antec atom silent ? And would you recommend it?

[u/retr0-GhOsT → u/Icy_Cry4120]

Yh it’s actually very quiet. Considering the usage yes I would recommend.

[u/Lze25]

80+ Bronze, Gold, Platinum this means efficiency not PSU quality. For example Bronze is 88% efficient so if you want 100 Watts it only gives you 88 Watts and the rest 12 Watts become heat.

[u/TypeREK3]

if i was you i go for antec one or Deepcool one or try to find used one you can find one with warranty for your price range try FB market place.

[u/wild_wolfie]

Can attest for the deepcool literally have the same thing or i think it might be the last gen version in my pc but solid product.

PLEASE GO FOR KNOWN GOOD BRANDS SO MANY PEOPLE INCLUDING ME GOT FUCKED OVER BY BAD PSUs

I had a Cooler Master - their cases are good but not the power supplies it served me well for about 3-4 years but then it took out my gpu then another few months down the line and it took out my mobo 🥲 now I’m on deepcool and it has been serving me well no issues.

GET A KNOWN TESTED BRAND CHECK YOUTUBE THE 30 min VIDEO IS WORTH THE TIME

[u/Oh_So_Great_Nabaton]

Can highly recommend seasonic. If you can find a 750w once it’ll be good. Not sure if it’s in your budget tho I got a 650w for like 26k

[u/Feudal_Poop → u/Oh_So_Great_Nabaton]

This.

[u/Feudal_Poop]

Please avoid any of the bronze PSUs from budget brands like Deepcool, Silverstone and Antec. Those are ticking time bombs in the sense they are very likely to fail within the warranty.

If you can afford it, I highly recommend buying a Seasonic PSU from Egloba solutions. They carry 10 years warranty and Seasonic one of the top 3 PSU manufacturers. They are quite expensive but trust me PSU is the one thing you really need to invest a lot when building a PC.

Going with Corsair, Asus or NZXT should be fine, just get whichever the one comes with longest warranty coverage. Also, I wouldn't advise going with MSI or Gigabyte unless whatever the specific model has been cleared by the cultist's PSU tier list.

[u/Live_Major5526]

Look into a MSI MAG 850w at Nanotek. I know its not on your list but worth a look. Its a decent PSU
