Hi, in this days i need to buy a new PSU. I have to decide if buy used (good brand) or new (bad brand).
The news PSU that i can afford are:
-Gigabyte PB500 500w
-Sentey SNP550-HS 550w
-Xfx P1-500B-XTFR 500w
The used PSU that i am considering is the Seasonic S12ii-520 which has two sellers. One has two years of use and the other 1 year (more expensive).
The question is: Are the used Seasonic PSU's an option here?
It is important to comment that the video card (which uses a 8 pin connector) will consume aprox. 19A and the Seasonic PSU have two rails of +12V
with 20A each. I do not know if that ampers are going to be enough to power all the components of the pc (i mean: if the pc only uses one rail it will not be enough. I do not now how the rail's distribution works in the pc)
The new PSU will handle:
-i5 3330 3.0Ghz
-Sapphire Pulse Rx 570 4gb
-8 gb Ram
-1tb HDD
-MSI B75MA-E31 (MS-7808)
