Replaces a 10 year old 850 watt

My 850 watt power supply failed about 6 weeks ago, it suddenly turned off and on again. The computer was loaded with a game and suddenly the power cycled and restarted the computer. It was like getting a blue screen without the blue screen. Eventually it started to go really crazy, like a power outage, and then cycled on and off rapidly until I unplugged it. I figured it wasn't the motherboard or bad drivers or anything like that. I rebuild my car about every 3 years, but I haven't replaced the PSU in ten years, it's finally time. I like the modular connectors, although some of them were very tight when connecting to SSDs, which are hard to reach inside the case. After putting it back together I haven't had any power issues since, so the problem was definitely with the old PS (Corsair 850W circa 2010).

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Modern
