I ordered this Corsair CS PSU for this system - i wanted Tier 1-2 but none of those were available
I can maybe go with Seasonic G-550 80Plus Gold 550W but chances are very slim to find this available and it would take 5-6 days more delay before my PC arrives
I wanted this tier 3 psu cause it got very good review from johnnyguru, but users here say scary things that pretty much got me shitless, Again im saying i have no access to tier 1-2 PSU's
Id like this one to live at least 3 years without any damages done to my Hardware (ESPECIALLY MY HDD/SDD)
Im living in a rural area and have frequent earthquakes (small ones) as well as power outages, fluctuations, brownouts blackouts everycolorouts, huge storms and angry boars
All i want is a reliable PSU against these
I had zero luck with PSU's so far, Used about 11-13 ones in my whole life, 90% of them was low tier, i only have 2 working ones now
One is a foxconn, very old 230 W stuff worked like a charm so far (about 7 years now, perfectly fighting against overvoltages), but im going to gift it away to a friend
I also have a Chieftec (Sirtec) CTG 450W 80P im using currently, it is at least 5 years old, and has killed stuff in my PC many times, including a gtx 240 VGa, a DVD ram, 1 HDD, at least 2 SATA ports on my mobo and almost killed itself once as well. This all happend on blackouts - power going out, and in, and out, and in and out again in ike 3 sec (yes this happens frequently here)
I want to know if the Corsair CS is anyhing better than this, cause my new rig costs a lot (for my wallet) and i want it to be dozen times more reliable than what i currently have with this Chieftec PSU (I'd say it scks prety hard)
Also what tier this Chieftec belongs to ? Some ppl say its 2 tier, which i hope is not true, cause the new CS corsair is tier 3 and if its anything worse tha my Chieftec then ill just throw it in the garbage bin soon as it arrives
