I'm thinking about buying a used PSU from the tier one list. Most of the time a seller will say it's a perfect PSU, but only using it will prove if that's right. I'm wondering how safe is it to test a used PSU which it's condition isn't truly known on a PC. Can it damage the MOBO or the GPU? Is there a safe method to test the PSU on a system (ex: i7 with a high end GPU) without damaging it's components. I'm thinking about a PSU which is 20% more than the recommended PSU. So if the recommended PSU is a 500W then I'm gonna buy a 600W or above PSU. What's your advice?
