chromic · Apr 25, 2013

I'm looking for a new "cheapish" psu, and i was looking @ chieftec a80 650w 85% w/cable management.

and i was just wondering is this a good psu?

specs are there

edit ; my pc specs are in my sig, 6100 & card are slightly underclocked now.
when i get psu, will OC card to max and CPU to 4-4.5

Looks reliable, obviously there's a lot better brands out there (Corsair, Seasonic etc)

But sure, 85% efficiency, you're good to go

I might be wrong, but last I recall about Chieftek, any models below 650w should be avoided, but 650+ models are made by Delta, who used to be the manufacturer for Corsair.

I'd like someone to check me on this, since it's been a while since I ran across the brand, but I'd give you the tentative go-ahead.

DarkSable :

well the specs look decent and the protections too,

UVP (Undervoltage protection)
OVP (Overvoltage protection)
SCP (Short-circuit protection)
OPP (Overload protection)
AFC (Automatic Fanspeed Control)
MTBF (mean time between failure): >50.000h

Just looked them up - they have about five manufacturers, one of whom is in fact Delta.

And... Delta are the ones who make that power supply. You're golden, and that's a pretty good, if pretty ugly, find.
