Need help due PSU

jerfop12 · Aug 12, 2018

My PC buzzing, and im pretty sure its my old (2013) PSU
I want to renew it.

I currently have a Coolermaster 460w
And number: RS-460-PSAP-13

I want to buy
Corsair VS Series VS650 (2018), 650 Watt voeding

I got 1060 3Gb
I7 7700
B250 PC Mate
8 GB ram

Will this work ?

It will yes. The VS series isn't known for being high quality however. Any other options? A higher quality 550W will work as well.

jerfop12 · Aug 12, 2018

Well, i already ordered it, its still good right?

4745454b · Aug 12, 2018

If you've already ordered it what's the point of asking?

As I said, it will work. The VS series isn't considered a high end or high quality unit. It will power your system just fine though. There were probably better options to get.

A be Quiet Pure Power 10 400 would have been a much better option.

The Corsair VS are meant as a system integrator.
A better quality PSU means every component will last longer, less risk of instability, quieter.

Rip too late.

Okay, i cancelled my order im going to buy the be Quiet Pure Power 10 400
Will this be enough power and will it work for my specs:

2x SSD 120GB
1x HDD 1TB (Might get taken out)
1060 3GB
i7 7700
B250 PC Mate
8GB HyperX

System integrator?

https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-VS650-Active-Supply-Certified/dp/B078HJ2RCW
https://www.amazon.com/quiet-Straight-Power-400W-BN230/dp/B00NC4I90E

It's also a lot more money.

Edit: Rather than blindly follow what one person says, what is your location and budget? If you are willing to cancel and what not. Having details like that will help us help you.

Corsair's website and JonnyGURU (works at Corsair) admit it's marketed as system integrator.

The CORSAIR VS650 is a great choice if you’re building a home or office system with lower power demands, but you still demand the compatibility and reliability that CORSAIR is known for.

OP is most likely from Europe

Corsair VS Series VS650 (2018), 650 Watt voeding

Voeding is Dutch for power supply.

Also, the Straight Power 10 isn't the same as the Pure Power 10. The Straight Power is a little better: more efficient, better fan, better warranty, an extra 12V rail.

similar price.

The Pure Power 10 400 will be more than enough for your current specifications. If you intend to upgrade to a more powerful GPU, a higher wattage PSU may be needed.

I was trying to figure out what "system integrator" means. It's a PSU term I'm not familiar with.

If you intend to upgrade to a more powerful GPU, a higher wattage PSU may be needed.

Or you know, he could buy the 650W now with 52A on the 12V rail and not worry about having to buy another PSU for any upgrades. I know you are going to start complaining about OCP and stuff. Just don't. Please. Let's not confuse an OP today ok?

jerfop12 · Aug 13, 2018

Hey, i am from the Netherlands
Budget around 50-55, just like the old one.

I don't know what to do atm, im really confused.

Better than the VS and gives you future upgrade options.

At € 56,45 I suggest the Corsair Vengeance

Either of those would work.
