PSU 101: A Guide and Q&A Thread for PSU

  • 800 lang budget ko sa PSU :( pero cge try ko :D
  • Guys, generic Rise 650w ang psu ko, palitan ko ba sya? CPU ko ay G4400, bibili pa lng ng 950/1050/960.


    Yung seasonic 400es maganda na ba yun?


    Yung "Seasonic Eco-Series 400 or 500 Watts" OK na yun!

    800 lang budget ko sa PSU :( pero cge try ko :D


    Naku dude mahirap yan! Wag mong tipidin PSU, jan nakasalalay lahat ng PC parts mo. Dapat true-rated reputable brand......

  • Eto, pede bato? psu seasonic 80 plus 430 watts true rated. Sa tpc ko lng nakita...
  • Tipirin mo na lahat ng piyesa wag lang ang psu. bawasan mo muna pambili mo ng gpu dahil mag mumura pa yan.
  • Ok cge ^ ^
  • Masters,

    Kaya ba ng currently PSU ko CORSAIR VS450w ang
    Ryzen 1600 tapos GTX 1050 TI 4gb dual OC?

    Balak ko kase bumili ng new CPU.
    Although ang current PROCIE ko is FX 4100. Hindi naman sya nagkaka aberya 24/7 open

    ty
  • Ingat sa Corsair VS450, baka CapXon capacitor niyan baka hindi tumagal.
  • MOBO: Asrock AB350 Pro 4
    CPU: Amd Ryzen 5 1600 6 Core 3.2-3.6 ghz 16mb 65W
    VGA: Sapphire RX 580 Nitro+ OC 8gb
    RAM: G.Skill Trident Z 2x8gb 3200 16gb CL16 (F4 3200C16D 16GTZB)
    SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250gb
    HDD: WD 1TB
    CASE: NZXT Source S340 Elite


    Pa-suggest po ng PSU, sold my FSP 600w aurum since last rig broke down and thinking of shifting to modular.

    PS.
    I'm not planning on adding another GPU, perhaps cooler, add'tl fan, another set of ram and hdd in the future.
    Thank You
  • @Amd_kid

    For starters, I would suggest Seasonic M12II-620 EVO kung gusto mo ng fully modular PSU. Pero since you are coming from a gold rated PSU, you might want to check these fully modular models:

    - Seasonic X-650 or Seasonic P-660 (price nila hindi nagkakalayo)
    - Super Flower Leadex Gold 650W
    - EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G2
    - FSP HYDRO G 650W

    Edit: If you plan to overclock the Ryzen 5 1600, I suggest you get the ASRock X370 Fatal1ty Gaming K4 or ASUS B350-PLUS instead. Spend less on memory.

    leaning towards white build ako sir, plus di naman ako hardcore magOC hehe.
    plus yung memory is for Video editing. :)
  • @Amd_kid

    Ah kung hindi ka naman mag-overclock then yung ASRock AB350 Pro4 is fine :-)

    Sorry, what I meant by spend less on memory is not getting the G.Skill Trident Z DDR4-3200 but go for the cheaper models like Ripjaws V or go for DDR4-2400 or DDR4-2666 kits. Medyo mahirap kasi patakbuhin ng DDR4-3200 speeds ang memory sa Ryzen, at hindi siya guaranteed sa ngayon to run at those speeds.

    Most of the time nasa DDR4-2400 or DDR4-2667 speeds lang ang stable, but some motherboards kaya ang DDR4-2933 or DDR4-3200 with memory based on Samsung B-die chips.

    Pero in the future baka magkaroon ng BIOS update ang ASRock at mas maging compatible na ang DDR4-3200 memory with your motherboard :-)

    1pc 2TB HDD
    2pcs 1TB HDD
    H110 corsair cooler for cpu
    Xfx rx480 gtr black ed
    1dvd rom
    Nzxt rgb led strip

    7 pcs 140mm fans included na yung 2fan sa radiator
    2pcs gskill 1860mhz 8GB.

    Yan mga brodah ang specs ng pc ko, bumigay na po psu kagabi lang after almost 6yrs:( thermaltake toughpower 775watts yung gamit ko dati. Pasuggest mga brodah ng 3-5K na psu yung di po overkill, mag oc ako pero onti lang. thanks in advance!
  • @klarth

    Take a look at the PSU's below sir:

    Php 4,490 = Seasonic S12G-650
    Php 4,790 = Seasonic M12II-750 EVO
    Php 5,160 = Seasonic G-750
    Php 5,300 = FSP Hydro G 650W
    Php 5,550 = EVGA SuperNova G2 650W

    Tingin ko best bang for buck option mo is the Seasonic G-750 kung prefer mo yung Gold rated PSU na semi-modular. Also look for Seasonic S12G-750 baka pasok pa naman siya sa 4K - 5K budget, but take note na hindi modular PSU and S12G series.

    Usually ang 650W PSU is enough for your build, but kung hindi naman masyado malaki ang additional cost ng 750W PSU it's a good option. Maganda din may allowance ka for additional watercooling components, especially kung balak mo mag add ng second radiator + 2nd set of fans. Or kung plan mo mag upgrade to a more powerful GPU tulad ng RX Vega or 6-core Coffee Lake CPU in the future.
  • mga sir ask ko lang, ano pinaka mura branded PSU, mga 450watt lang. pls. help.

  • drewmack
    Kahit 450W PSU kayang ihandle yang rig mo on full load mostly look on trusted brand like Seasonic, Antec, FSP, XFX, Cooler Master, etc
    Sudgess kong model ay Seasonic S12II 520W or M12II Evo proven to be good to get psu
