Are Logisys Power Supplies Safe?

[kevinakerberg]

Hi everyone,
I need to upgrade the power supply in one of my desktops to support the new graphics card I got for it. I didn't want to spend that much due to the fact that this particular desktop is on the older side. I was looking at the Logisys 480w psu (http://www.amazon.com/Logisys-480W-4-pin-Power-Supply/dp/B000F0DUT8/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1453164191&sr=1-2&keywords=400w+psu&refinements=p_n_condition-type%3A2224371011%2Cp_36%3A-3000) but was unsure if it's safe or it's going to blow up and fry all of the components. Is it safe to use? Thanks. And let me know if you need the exact specs of the machine.

You are looking for cheep and safe. Usually you have to pick one.

What GPU are you going to run? I wouldnt touch that PSU with a 10 foot pole unless I was running a low power budget setup (150W max).

Dont cheep out on power supplies.
