Prebuilts generally come with butt power supplies so definitely upgrade that, there's a decent deal for a Corsair cx550m 80+ bronze modular PSU, that would work well. I wouldn't worry about temperatures, desktops have much better airflow than laptops, and it will likely have fine temps. Definitely get an SSD for the OS as well, 120/250 GB would be fine.

u/Jakomako · 3 pointsr/buildapc

You do t have to wait for the old stock to go away, the new ones have different wattages, you can also easily tell them apart in pictures. The 550w is only $60: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B72W0A2/?tag=pcpapi-20

u/Thomas13324 · 2 pointsr/EtherMining

560s, being small cards, draw a maximum of 100 Watts each. I would recommend a 1000 watt psu for a six card rig, or if you want to spend a little less, an 850 watt should work too. It would be cheaper to use two 550 watt power supplies, but it would be harder to set up. You could get 1 550 watt now, which should be able to run 2-3 of those cards, then get a second one later.

850 Watt: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015YEI8JG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1518851980&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=rm850x&dpPl=1&dpID=51lMWTIlCwL&ref=plSrch

The 500-550W units will do just fine. You could run your machine on a 1500W power supply without doing it harm- though it would be terribly inefficient.

I'd recommend a Cooler Master 500-550, but I recently used one and didn't like how loud its fan was. This Corsair model I linked is a tiny bit above your budget, but it's also partially modular, meaning you only need to use the cables you NEED, and can leave the rest in the box, rather than having to hide them.

Semi modular power supply for easy cable management. Feel free to ask me any questions.

u/A_Neaunimes · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace

I haven't *yet read reviews on the newly released Seasonic M12/S12 III, but from what I have read they are still group-regulated (somebody please chime in if I'm wrong there).
That's an obsolete design for PSUs, here's why.

The recent CX/CXM^^1 series from Corsair (those from 2017 with the grey labels) as far as I know don't share this design, and are very decent midrange PSUs. They should be priced in the same waters.
CX 550 (this particular listing is for a refurbished PSU, I can't find it fully new on Amazon)/ CX 550M

^^1
They are the same, the "M" versions are semi-modular which is always nice to have.

u/AirIsrael · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace

Like a cheap Chinese psu has a risk of doing damage. Some thing like a Corsair CX550m would be perfectly fine for you. [Here] (https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-CX500M-Modular-Supply-Certified/dp/B01B72W0A2) it is for only $54

u/Betrayyal · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace

I think I'd need at least 500W to be on the safe side - the PC has an i5-6400 and a 750ti. So I'd rather have more than less when it comes to the PSU. With the prebuilt I have, the PSU is at the top of the case.

There was a video someone made on replacing the PSU for this particular PC. But the only other question I have, I guess, would be if any of these PSUs are safe to use and a reliable when it comes to stability?

Thanks a lot for the recommendations! I'll do as you suggested.

I also forgot to add a power supply.
This should do fine right?https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B72W0A2

u/Ryio5 · 1 pointr/buildapc

What about the EVGA BQ?

Aren't the new grey label CXM supplies supposed to be good? I've seen people saying that they aren't garbage like the green label ones.

u/RaptaGzus · 1 pointr/Amd

EDIT: Wait, I should ask, which one?

This one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B72W0A2/

Also, don't forget you'll need a new motherboard for the 9400.

u/FlamingIceCave · 1 pointr/dayz

1050ti is arguably the best budget card. For PSU, go with this.

u/KhaosKat · 1 pointr/buildapc

Unless you have a power hungry system, the 550W or 650W should work just as well and are considerably less expensive.

u/fresh_leaf · 1 pointr/buildapc

Two of these for the monitors would be greatt. 23", IPS, slim bezels, 75Hz, freesync.

I'd probably replace the PSU. Raidmax isn't exactly know for quality units. I'd suggest going with this unit.



u/wallyTHEgecko · 1 pointr/buildapc

Is one of these PSUs significantly better than the other?

I'm looking specifically at a 550 watt Corsair and a 600 watt EVGA.

These two brands seem to be the most common and are both highly rated, but now I can't decide which one I want. Googling around for comparisons only turns up comparisons of top-of-the-line models so I'm not sure how these cheaper models compare.

Just a 50$ option but it has 2 6 pin connectors along with black cables and semi modular design.

Just googled the power supply, never heard of it in my life, so, I can't necessarily vouch for it's quality, but that should give you some sort of indication.

The fact that it's from an unknown brand doesn't sit well.

Edit: upon some googling the only thing I could find about that power supply is that it's made by some company called AmacroX which is apparently a France based company? I'm actually not entirely sure if there's regional differences on PSU's, I know power delivery is different by region, may want to look into that if you're outside of America, searching around on google has given me no clear answers.

Edit 2: Did some more googling and research on regional power delivery than I ever expected to do, the model I sent is universal, no worries.

u/095179005 · 1 pointr/buildapc

EVGA hasn't included the B3 in it's product chart yet, but it's modular, has japanese caps on the main PCB, a silent fan mode, and 5 years of warranty vs. 3 years for the other bronze PSUs EVGA has.

Edit: You can also get the Corsair CX550M.

If you upgrade to ryzen then you are pretty much getting rid of the system your friend gave you, some suggested upgrades from me personally would be upgrading your cpu and ram and getting a graphics card, and maybe a new power supply, here’s some links to a few parts that would be compatible with your current build.

Ram

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F333070011011 - $70

GPU

This puts the total to around 400, leaving you about 300 for peripherals and a monitor or two

u/Jonh_R493 · 1 pointr/buildapc

Ok thanks. The only issue is that I don't see too many of those going around anymore. Would something like this be fine?

u/MarioPL98 · 1 pointr/techsupport

For this rig I would get 80+ gold modular or semimodular 500-600W PSU.

Something like:
https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Bronze-Certified-Modular-CP-9020102-NA/dp/B01B72W0A2/
or
https://www.amazon.com/Seasonic-SSR-550FM-Semi-Modular-Warranty-Compact/dp/B077916ZZV/


You may want to get 600-700W instead if you are going to upgade motherboard and cpu to ryzen 3900x or power hungry gpu.

u/KingJanIIISobieski · 1 pointr/pcparts

Nice great monitor.

I'd go for slightly cheaper case. Either the Meshify C is a great option or the Cooler Master Masterbox if you wanna stick with the RGB.


I'd go a little higher end on the PSU. The Seasonic Focus Plus is a great tier 1 PSU and fully modular but if you don't want to spend more then go for a Corsair CX series which is semi modular at least. Or if you wanna maintain the RGB theme you could go with this Thermaltake PSU.

Double your SSD capacity and get a higher tier one for only a few bucks more with the WD Blue.. Or go with a M.2 form factor one since your MOBO has a slot for it.

Just some ideas. CPU and GPU are good combo, as is the RAM.

u/Magnetic_Tree · 1 pointr/buildapc

Unfortunately, with PSUs the quality is directly related to the price. Better quality = more expensive. You won't find a decent PSU for 30 USD.

The cheapest I would recommend is the CXM 550W right now. Prices fluctuate as sellers offer discounts and price cuts.

Amazon is having a pretty good sale right now

u/Splongus · 1 pointr/buildapc

Your PSU has 2 +12-volt rails, each rated at around 228W max load. One is typically assigned to primarily power the PCIe bus, and the other runs your CPU (in addition to some other things).

The problem: Even though the RX 580 reports a TDP of 185W, AMD's GPUs are known to push far past this rating. Your RX 580 will regularly attempt to consume more than 228W, which is more than its power rail can handle.

The solution: get a modern PSU. Most modern PSUs will not use 2 +12v rails like this one does. If you want to be sure, check the power chart for the PSU, and if it displays +12V1 and +12V2, then it has 2 rails. Get one with only one +12V rail.

I'd recommend the Corsair CX 550M, but your PC will do fine with 450W.

If you don't want to shell out for another PSU you can always downclock+undervolt your GPU by ~10%.
