yeah elaborate….
You will have many ugly useless cables that you don't need nor want that you will need to shove into random nooks and crannies in your case. It just feels wrong, and looks ugly. The +$20 or whatever (at least for a semi modular) is easily worth it IMO.
if you cant cable manage non modular psu.. you cant cable manage modular psu..
And as outlined by the long list of complaints below, buying non-modular means you're also getting a lower quality unit, as it only makes sense to manufacture nonmodular for the really budget market. That +$20 gets you a semi- or full-modular PSU that's also better quality. This isn't worth skimping on.
e.g., RM650 could be had for +$20 here
There are plenty of good non modular power supplies, if you are after a budget one it makes no sense paying extra for modularity. I got my CoolerMaster MWE White for ~$50 and it serves me as well as a $100 modular unit would. That being said I might upgrade to a quieter PSU if i find a good deal for one that is really quiet.
Oh noes, untidy cabling!
IMO it’s easier to work with, adding in another cable later is a pain. It just doesn’t look as good
Notwithstanding that, a soldered wire (versus a spade-like connector on a modular PSU) is far more reliable.
Why? If you have a PSU shroud it doesn't matter for most people.
I bought this PSU from umart when it was $89 last year.
I ended up returning it this year since it made an audible electrical noise every time I moved the mouse.
After getting a replacement Corsair rm750, I realised that the power supply was absolute garbage (the EVGA) since I thought I cheaped out on my 240mm AIO and was getting loud noise. Turns out the fan in this thing was insanely loud and made a low frequency humm in my case. I'd steer clear of this.
How quiet is the RM?
The rm750 is literally silent. The fan doesn't ramp up till you pass 300w load.
I sold my XFX 6700XT and have a temp GTX960 until prices drop enough. But until then, even under an unrealistic 100% load on CPU and graphics card the fan doesn't trigger cus it doesn't hit 300w.
Chances are with this PSU, by then time the fan turns on, you'll have other parts of your system producing much more noise, and hence you'll never hear it.
wow, very useful information.
"Quiet and Intelligent Auto Fan for near-silent operation"…..so it's a false claim?
That statement is as true as Intel producing the most power efficient CPUs.
it's a marketing weasel word.
it's either silent, or it makes a noise, which is better and objectively measured in dB.
I always read these things like it's saying someone near-passes an exam, which is still a fail. show me numbers like how noctua do with their fans.
Just read the various reviews on Amazon and Tom's for the consensus - majority of users are fine with the noise and performance of the PSU.
However, it looks like EVGA has some noticeable QC issues with this model so a) if it does fail, it fails early and b) if you're unlucky and fan/coil QC is bad, it will be noticeable especially if you're a power user or building a quiet rig
As Gigabyte PSU's are blacklisted, the next price level 80+ Gold 600W PSU's are Antec and MSI for $99
I bought 10 of these and there was a capacitor directly behind the sata port of one of the cables, when you plugged the cable into the PSU it would push the capacitor out the way, basically makes one of the sata cables unusable and is a huge QC issue. BCP did not even respond to my email about it, quite disappointed.
I’m currently expecting boot issues with this exact PSU
And suspect it’s the PSU.
What you are saying about the capacitor would cause this ? As the capacitor is for absorbing start up draw?
I don't know much about it sorry. The capacitor in all my units was placed too close to the sata cable port on the psu that when you plugged in the cable it would make contact and physically push it.
shouldn't have bought 10 of them, just get one, don't be greedy.
Greedy? There's lots of reasons to need 10 PSUs they sold hundreds if not thousands of them at this price.
"lots of reasons"
@9hundred: They're not graphics cards mate, just your everyday run of the mill power supplies, if you are building PC's regularly you will buy PSU's when they are on special and have a few tucked away as spares. Buying 10 has nothing to do with "greed" there was never any shortage of them at this price, it was a promotional price that went on for a few month with their 750 and 850 watt range, anyway enough time given to you you, go troll some where else.
You're the reason PSU prices have risen!
Don't buy a non-modular PSU. You will regret it!!
