Welcome to the forums my friend!

Just a reminder that it's less about the overall wattage, and more about the quality of the PSU. My understanding of the Powerex PSUs are they are very poor quality, so you will want to upgrade as to prevent possible isntability or risk to other components.

As for phyiscal power, it does supply a good amount on the 12V rails, but again that doesn't speak for the quality, I can't find a proper spec sheet outside of rail outputs for the PSU.

That Powerex REX III is a scary PSU.

I couldn't comment for the HecWin+ PSU, however I've never heard of it, which is another red flag.
The FSP isn't terrible perhaps, but outdated and probably not suited for gaming rigs nowadays, but I'd imagine it's an improvement over the Powerrex.

A cheap PSU is usually a bad one.

What manufacturers are available where you are?
