EVGA BR isn't very good either, don't cheap out on a PSU.

Yikes

Whats wrong with it? Like whats bad about it? I wanna be sure

Because I did research on it, and found people have been running a 1070 ti on it for years. And I think the 1070 have a wattage of 150.

Seems like the watts it offers is way enough.

There's just better PSUs out there, like corsair txm, rm, rmx, EVGA G2, Rosewill Capstone's have been on sale recently.

Cheap PSUs have a higher fail rate, and it can send a fatal amount of power to components when it fails.

And this^

Oh, I thought that psu was a scam or something haha

Its fine, I've been running a $17 psu in my pc for 2 years now. So far I haven't had any trouble with it so far.

I don't usually do hardcore stuff with my computers, like overclocking and stuff I don't have a lot of stuff hooked inside it either.

Did that happen to you?

Why... and no never happened to me cause I buy quality PSUs.

I had a decent cooler master PSU fail and kill an irreplacable motherboard. I was pissed.

Why I don't overclock and do hardcore stuff? Idk just never done it, I guess sometimes people's lifes head in those directions. I've seen some overclocking videos and stuff. I think its pretty cool how some folks know how to do overclocking

Oh you never had a psu issue, thats cool. Me either, lucky me huh?

I think that EVGA would be fine. I know from experience that sometimes higher prices for something don't make it better. Worse case scenario it stops working or something.So I'll make sure I buy a warranty for it.

Or it damages my motherboard for it but I have plenty of those.

I'll get some sort of plan for the 1070 too.

The EVGA is not fine. Seriously dude, spend an extra bit of money, you aren't going to be happy if the PSU frys your system, the PSU can do that. You keep wanting to buy these cheap PSUs, it's not worth the risk.

Just the board but it can damage much more
