Is this PSU any good ?
My current PSU is apparrently dangerous and looking to buy something safe which can run my RX580 and Ryzen 5 3600
Thanks

Though I have to admit that the pricing lately usually has me overspeccing power supplies, just because. Cost difference between the RM550X ($80), RM650X (75$), RM750X ($120), and RM850x ($120) is usually pretty narrow (high end is a little high today). Also lately been amongst the cheapest gold rated supplies from trustworthy brands. EVGA G2 and G3 creep down occasionally. And there are some of the new Seasonic Focus Gold.

So if it is priced near the competition of other similarly sized gold rated supplies, go for it.

Yeah, didn't get rave reviews on jonnyguru. Big takeaway was the under set under voltage trip points and bad cross loading potential. If you put little to no 5V load on the thing, which is typical these days, it would barely make the ATX spec.

You could certainly look for a competent 550W, but as I said, if the price is right, nothing wrong with the RM750x
