[SOLVED] Need help with new power supply please

[SUTER-7]

Hi, I currently have a Cooler Master MasterWatt 550W and it has really bad coil whine. I have read this model is common for coil whining. I’m not sure if it’s because I have it paired with a RX590 or what it is. Can anyone recommend a good PSU. My budget is around $100

thanks

PSU prices are crazy right now due to the virus.

This should be good...

Would you say I am better waiting until after this COVID stuff to get a new one. I can wait it’s just the coil whine annoys me so much

Yes, definitely. CM Masterwatt isn't something that you have to replace immediately.

This is better quality than MasterWatt and available...

Thanks guys, I just can’t stand the coil whine and it’s getting louder. You don’t reckon a Corsair one will whine?

It shouldn't, different topology.
