[SOLVED] is this old PSU good ?

[Rui Neves]

Hi ,
few months ago I have taken some parts from an old computer and I have some PSU in my home , I don´t know about the brand , so anyone here could say if this PSU Modecom Feel III-500 ATX is any good ? I will use it only for testing other computer when I need it anyway , but I am asking this because I wish to know if it´s safe like connect a GPU to this or only basic systems without any Dedicated GPU .

I never have heard of it.

Given its rather old specs, i would definitely not put it in any system that you care about.

okay , that´s what I thought , but for test a system with a low tdp cpu with IGPU should be okay ?

Wattage on 12v rail wise, yes. But i have no clue about the quality or anything of the unit. Given its from a no name, id say it sucks.

It wasn't a good PSU when it was new. And, unlike wine, PSUs definitely don't get better with age.
