Hi,
So i bought this pc 3 months ago:
msi x99a sli plus
i7 5930k
Gigabite gtx 970 windforce
2*8gb Kingston ddr4 ram
Here comes the problem Powered by the Cooler Master B700 Ver2 PSU
i have been working on this pc for 2 months.
My friends told me that this PSU is damaging my computer parts and is dangerious to them
Is this true? Right now i dont even want to turn it on? Should i replace it ASAP?
 
Solution
this psu is a new serie from cm ... made by cwt with all the protection needed

you can use it , but since i can not find any good review on it...its hard to say
it have 80+ rated efficiency
the best thing is to try it while gaming to see if you have somes freeze or black screen , if yes? the power supply do not have a sufficient power needed for your rig

but i suggest to buy a good quality psu if you can afford it

get a seasonic/xfx/evga b2-g2-gs

The PSU is ok, The only review i found is this one:
http://i2hard.ru/reviews/obzor-i-testirovanie-bloka-pitaniya-cooler-master-b700-ver2.html
I can't read the russian language but the google translater did a reasonable good job for me to understand the key-parts.
You probably shouldn't worry about that PSU.

Translated Conculsion from the Website (translation done by google):

Cooler Master B700 demonstrates a very good value for money - the quality of the power supply unit with a capacity of 700 watts. It is well suited for a system with "reserve" power, or playing a computer with two graphics cards. If you want to buy something better, you will have to pay 1 - 2 thousand more.
V700 shows excellent voltage regulation. Most importantly his dignity, this noise performance, it surely can be called very quiet. Even under load it is not audible. This compares favorably with the power supply from its competitors in this price range.

Pros:
-Affordable price for 700W
-Standard package size
-Quiet under any load
-Voltage Stability
-Having all the necessary connectors
-Ability to connect two video cards
-3 years warranty

Minuses:
-The narrow range of input voltages
-Not all cables are braided
