Revainrating 5 out of 5

Stay away! These PS are now scrap!

Has been working Corsair PS for years. The last self lasted a good 8 years before it died. Replaced it with an 850i this February. In mid-July, the running system simply switched itself off. Lights came on, fans and everything, but then they went out. I wasn't there long enough to even get any zip codes. No warnings, nothing squeaks. Everything was pulled out of the system piece by piece down to the core. All the same. Occasionally when this happened, the system booted up fine the next day and everything was fine for a week. It is now the end of August and the system is doing the same thing again. Again bare bones and nothing. Now clicks from PS though. Plugged in a spare I had lying around from a previous build and the system fitted perfectly. The Corsair PS used to be good and I don't know what happened but for the money a PS like this should have no problem in under a year. I've seen previous posts on these things, but given my previous experience. With Corsair PS I thought maybe these posts are just bad lemons that tend to happen. Don't make this mistake. Stay away! Find another manufacturer to work with Corsair. PS are unreliable, untrustworthy and therefore not worth the time, money or effort. STAY AWAY!

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • I don't mind, everything is fine
