is this PSU any good ?

[gamer619]

So I'm thinking of getting this PSU as its really cheap . can it run say a build without over clock for 2 3 months then I will replace it will a good branded PSU

The name is twinmos 650w power supply

Pls help

If you are looking at it in terms of post rebate price of $20 then there are better options however it is always cheapest to get a good branded power supply from the start.

Thanks for quick reply but in here middle east this is the cheapest PSU you can get . rest are around 80-100 $ .the coolermaster thermal master 500 w is around 50 bucks . that's the most I can go at the moment

Well, it may run your system, but there is considerable risk that it may damage some other components.

Cheap generic PSU's usually have horrible ripple, no protection circuit, and they tend to go pop.
I really can not recommend that you use a $20 PSU in any system. But it's your decision

Never heard of twinmos & Coolermaster don't do very good budget PSU's.

Corsair's CX series or VS if your scraping the barrel, would be an adequate place holder solution.

It depends on what exactly your powering ? obviously a system powering anything over an GTX 750Ti/R9 270 might be risky.
