Review on πŸ’ͺ EVGA SuperNOVA 120-GP-0650-X1: 650 G+, 80 Plus Gold 650W Power Supply with 10 Year Warranty and Fully Modular Design by Dan Venegas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Began to work after 1.5 years of normal use.

Personally I prefer Corsair or Seasonic but Seasonics reviews weren't what I expected and Corsair Ax/Axi (digital) units aren't cheap so read that the G /P/T series is on par with them in terms of build quality /component quality, so I decided to try the G+ (enhanced G series). I recently noticed that one of my GPU (Power) LEDs was lighting up, indicating insufficient power. Replaced the cable for that connection, no change, just moved all other connections on the PSU to nearby fixed ports, and since this keeps repeating, I know it's a PSU issue, even if it's not low/bad output power or voltage regulation. Another block with the same quality/output will not work. I don't have this problem, so nothing else is causing it. So far this still works, but I don't risk damaging any components. Repair/replacement takes at least 2-3 weeks, I'll just replace it. Compared to other gold-rated devices I've installed over the past 20 years, this one had the shortest time to failure.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Some bugs
