Zalman ZM700-TX

[Jinn-Gon Qui]

Is this a good PSU? I already have my build in my hands, as we speak, but I've been suggested to take the PSU anyway, when I haven't even found any reviews regarding how good it is. I need help verifying its capabilities and efficency - I don't want to own something that I'm not sure of.

Please help me!

Use Google translate to translate the reviews. I read one talking about the PSU blowing up XD.

Most of these reviews are either made by idiots or are fake.

I only found one: https://www.morele.net/zasilacz-zalman-700tx-700w-zm700-tx-816859/

I'll translate the reviews and come back with a reply.

I found that review that had his PSU blown, but he said it was only in Feburary, when he bought it in July - could still blow up, but within months.

I'll have to talk with my family and hear me out on this (as you may recall on the other discussion I created - which I was hoping for more comments from other people, but you're the only one that helps me). This PSU was probably fine at its time, but I can't picture something that is old to survive with new and modern components. I guess the case from Zalman will not be an issue after all, but the PSU is last resort - it's literally the chip of all chips in this situation. This will just turn me undetermined and then they'll ask me "why this and why that and make up your mind" ♥♥♥♥...

Funny thing is, I've made my mind long ago. The difference is, I've been recommended to take something from one person - whereas the whole world doesn't even own - and whoever owns my case and PSU should get the same results and experience.

Giving that this thread talks about Zalman's PSUs are build by/with FSP/Enhance (?), it means it's from great to excellent PSU? When I think about it, since the store I bought my build from are also friends with my parents, what are the odds of being offered to take a component that's likely to die in months, if not days?

Could you explain in short terms, please? I just don't find this specific thread relevant to my PSU.
