I have a question about PSU

[r4zzk4]

Okay so i have a MS-500W PSU, here are the specifications of it

AC INPUT 230V 50Hz 4A
DC OUTPUT +3.3V, +5V, +12V, -12V, +5VSB
MAX OUTPUT 10A, 12A, 12A, 0,3A, 2A
MAX COMBINED POWER 70W, 144W, 3.6W, 10W

Here's the CPU AND GPU

CPU: AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor
GPU: AMD Radeon R7 200 Series

The thing is, my PC keeps freezing during games or sometimes even when just surfing the web.
i checked everything, CPU Temps, (which don't go over 40C when gaming), GPU temps (same like CPU), and eventually me and my friend found out it's the PSU problem.. we literally checked every other component my PC has and everything is in great form, except PSU.

I went to Computer>Manage>System Tools>Event Viewer>Windows Logs>System and all it there was Kernel-Power source (Event ID 41), there was multiple of it, and their level was Critical

So my question is, what is a good PSU for my specs with a decent price to afford it, so that i can game and simply use my pc normally?

Well, your PSU is also in great form, since it didn't blow up so for. But it is definitely not suited to the task, 150 W unit could be powering PC without GPU, but nothing more.

Sorry i forgot to mention, i changed my PSU like for 3 times in 3 years, and i think that all 3 times i bought the same PSU, the one i mentioned in the thread... so yeah uh, this is the longest time this PSU had endured, i didn't change it for maybe like 7-8 months...

I changed it because it kept dying, i just find myself game at late night, and suddenly my PC dies, i send it to repair and the source is PSU, it kept dying...

Then change it ASAP. It is simply not powerful enough.

Alright, thank you anyways.

Since i'm not so good about PSU'S can you tell me if this one is good? or if anyone sees this, can just anyone tell me if this is a good one? https://www.kupujemprodajem.com/Napajanje-ATX-Gigatech-PSB600W-RETAIL-20255588-oglas.htm it's price is something like 23 Euros

 

[DRagor]

Nope, not good. What plugs your GPU needs? Single 6-pin or more?

single 6 pin

 

[DRagor]

That page you linked has ridiculous prices on anything good, or even not-so-good. I really can't find anything sensible there.

Oh that page is just like ebay or something, various people sell anything at a low price, and prices are low in-general, and since i can't purchase online from other people or from other countries because my credit card is blocked from personal reasons, i go there and buy stuff

Dude , you've been through 3 X €20 PSU's already.

One €60 psu of decent quality would still be working.

Stop buying cheap tat, it's a danger to your whole system!!

 

[DRagor]

I see. I would not call them low except perhaps on old junk. Ah, I found unit you have now - well, when you see price set at 5 euro, you should know it's junk.
Ok, this one is not bad https://www.kupujemprodajem.com/CHIEFTEC-GPS-650A8-650W-Full-Smart-series-napajanje-47188752-oglas.htm but you don't need that much power, and I guess 7000 din is too much?

Well i finally decided to do it, you have the point, i don't know why didn't i do that sooner lol

Well 7200 din. (RSD) is 60 euros, so not much if it's good, i mean, i can afford it, but ATM i'm willing to pay up to 4000 RSD = 35 Euros.

 

[DRagor]

Well, then few in that 4000 range, that will do (however, only if they are new, buying used PSU without warranty is pointless)

Thank you dude, i'll consider about them all and buy the one i can afford and think is good, and sorry for bothering you, i am just not that good about electronics lol

The delta is a good quality unit , that said who knows how much use it's actually had.

This is too much cheap, its 1500 RSD which means something like 10 euros
the current PSU i have was from a legit store in Serbia and i bought it for 2000 RSD something like 17 Euros, so i don't trust that one since the one from the store is like pure shit

 

[madmatt30]

Its an old psu stripped from a hp or dell.

If its working (& ive honestly NEVER EVER seen a broken delta psu) then its a bargain buy if you dont have much money.

Not mad keen on second hand psu's but it is good quality - far far better than what you've been using.

I'll consider it, but anyways, thank you too, all i needed was to confirm that PSU was problem and to get some suggestions for what PSU to buy
