Unreliable power supply

This is not a stable power supply. Either my monitor is dying because the GPU performance is not good, or the whole computer is just dying. I replaced this power supply with a more reliable brand and no more problems.

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Poor manual

great for computers and accessories

I know there have been some bad reviews of the Raidmax power supply. but I decided to try one of the 700W power supplies. Quality is good, only downside I have is lots of mustard and ketchup colored wires BUT if like me you're looking for something more productive than cosmetics then this is your power supply. Ryzen R 7 3700xx570 Asrock Mobo16gb 3200 Critical Ballistix5500xt Xfx 8gb I will update the review if something bad happens but until 10/10 reviews a 6+2 pcie cable although it only has…

Decent quality budget power supply.

I bought this power supply shortly after it was released because all other power supplies from this brand have received fair reviews. When I bought it, it wasn't cheap and I took a risk. I've been using it since installing it in March 2020, mostly 24/7. I had no problems with it, would buy again. It really impressed me. Higher quality capacitors are certainly noteworthy as well, as other installations in the house will be live (often in my area), but this won't miss a beat. One note: unless you

Cannot tell if unit is on, fan not on

I returned it because I couldn't tell if it was on or off. I upgraded my motherboard, memory, case and its power supply but I couldn't get any power, the fan isn't spinning, maybe it's a thermal property, I just turned on my blue ray burner when I flipped the switch on the back because the case wouldn't wake up. But the motherboard has no power, I need to know that the PSU is working before I can diagnose the rest, but with no fan spinning to check it and no power light I didn't know if it was…

ATTENTION only 1x 6+2 PCI-e!

I will be buying this, probably have no idea this thing only has 1 6+2 PCI-E cables. At 700 watts and included in the SLI Ready list, that's ridiculous and deceptive. If it's true, good luck with it.

Pros
  • Internal power supplies
Cons
  • No instructions
