*goes for a bronze certified PSU*




Agreed but it's junk quality. Suddenly too much power draw and the PSU could instantly die.

65w cpu and 200w gpu. not a problem at all on that psu. not the best quality for sure but you're not even close to taxing it with that system.

no reason at all to replace it really unless you got the extra cash and just feel like replacing it. the Antec HCG is a good psu but 850w and $100 is so massively overkill it's just silly. if you must, something like this would be cheaper and just as good.

the Seasonic 620w is top quality and only $50 and still more power than needed if you feel the need to replace it https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003BIEOCI/?tag=pcpapi-20

are you in the US?? cause those sound like typical low quality units found overseas. the Antec VP would be the best of that group but even that is rather low quality and not any better than the one you have now. making it a pointless buy since it is not really an "upgrade"

i had a feeling that's where you were. every region has it's common psu models that show up and that list looked like one from that area.

the seasonic is a quality unit but it may be very expensive where you are. where are you shopping at? i can skim it real quick and see what they have that is quality and not massively expensive.

keep in mind, you really don't need a new psu and the options you listed are not much better making it not really worth doing.

Bronze is the efficiency not the quality. The efficiency is worthless if the average unit only lasts for a year.

I wouldn't suggest any of those. This one is a great little unit that should last for a very long time.
