Suggest me PSU with recommended hold time 600 - 650 Watt

Subhajitdas298 · May 13, 2015

Need a PSU with 600 - 650 W range.

Currently using Corsair VS550.

Thinking of Seasonic M12II series with good Japanese capacitors.

Seasonic, Corsair, or Cooler Master. Corsair, or Cooler Master mostly preffered as there is service center near, but no service center for Seasonic or others.

Price if a factor. I am looking for a good value PSU.

No PSU under 600 watt please. Going to upgrade the GPU in future.
RAM upgrade coming soon.

Take a look at this: XFX XTR 650W

I think, price has nothing really to do with PSU tier.
I was looking for a PSU last year, as cheapest possible, modular and about 650-750W rating.
The only one I could find was XFX XXX Pro 750W bronze, I was really surprised to see this PSU among the 1st. tier PSUs.
Perhaps it was on a special offer..dunno exactly.

Look at this first:

From Seasonic? I would get this here:

Info:
If I understood it correctly, the suggested XFX XTR series are also made by Seasonic same goes for XFX XXX Pro.
The Seasonic X series belong to 1st. Tier.

I didn't know that, but XFX series is not available in India that easily.

chris987 · May 13, 2015

XFX XTR is based an the same platform as seasonic S12G , a great unit!

Seasonic does produce PSUs for other brands eg. for XFX.

I need to look at the hold up times. This thing is serious now. I am going to get an PSU within a couple of week or so.
Looking forward for Seasonisc stuff. Can you just follow Flipkart or Amazon India or Snapdeal please.

timeconsumer · May 13, 2015

Those are all Seasonic or Super Flower OEMs, the best two companies in the business and they will exceed the ATX specifications for hold-up time.

Why so hung-up on hold up? (pun intended) Do you have electricity issues in your area that cause brief (<15ms) drops in current?

EDIT: Found this in your retailer. It is a Seasonic OEM.

EVGA 220-GS-0650-V1 650W

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438048

Made by SEASONIC.

Ya, electricity is f-worded here. So, hold up time is huge matter. How about a Seasonic M12II 620W Evo?
Your suggestion seems interesting. How it compares in teir?

Subhajitdas298 · May 13, 2015

Shipping cost is too much.

timeconsumer · May 13, 2015

Subhajitdas298 :

The Antec HCG series is a Tier 2 unit on the PSU Tier thread.

I couldn't find any info on hold-up times for that specific one. By the way, I can't tell if the model on that site is the modular or not. If it is modular it is a Seasonic, if not it is a Delta. But both are excellent models in the same tier.

Can it smoothly run on a stepped sine wave UPS?

timeconsumer · May 13, 2015

Subhajitdas298 :

As long as you have a decent flux capacitor.

I have no idea.

Subhajitdas298 · May 13, 2015

timeconsumer :

Any review around for that model?

tech_fanatic · Oct 20, 2015

Subhajitdas298 :

Hey Subhajitdas I too am in the same boat as you please update if you have found a solution.
Really need to buy a good PSU preferably from Seasonic and want to know it will hold up with my generic non sine wave(microtek) ups.
Please keep me updated.

Suggest me PSU with recommended hold time 600 - 650 Watt
