Power supply surge detected, Asus anti-surge. After new BIOS update.

[SubZeroFlsh]

I just updated my BIOS, and I get the anti-surge message when I boot my PC. I have an Enermax PSU and I am really hoping I don't need a new one. Shoud I disable it if it wasn't happening before the BIOS update?

Any assistance is appricated I will respond frequently.

Not good.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

OK, wow if it wasn't for you I probably would of picked it. Are they unreliable or something?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

They have poor capacitors.

OP, the Corsair CM/CX/Builder series uses poor capacitors.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

OK, thanks for the that. I probably would of borght one if it wasn't for you guys. So I think the coolermaster one Blackbird linked is probably my best choice as it is on deal and has good reviews. Would I have some decent headroom with the 970? Or shall I go with 650? The price tag on the 550 is perfect though. Just wondering if it will be if it me in the future.

Thanks for your help guys!

I have had one last look around and found this:http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00LMAUZ6G/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1425053332&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&keywords=EVGA+650W&dpPl=1&dpID=41wvIIlOXdL&ref=plSrch

I will get a little more headroom, but if it is less reliable or anything like that, I would prefer to go for the Coolermaster.

Or this:

It's decent.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

I am just desiding if 550W would be enough, I would prefer a 650W, but if I don't need that much for my system I will go for the 550W.

Thanks for your response.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

550 is enough , but the 650 is a decent deal.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

OK, I will have a look round for a deal on a 650. I see with you if it is OK, because you know a lot more.

I know the corsair has bad capasitors, but I can't find anything under £70 for a 650W with really good quality. 🙁

Thanks for helping me out.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

G1 or GM is fine also.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

I have done some more research and apparently G1 has more rails, and GM only has one a few other benefits. I think it is between these two.

Nearly found one thanks for helping me.

(I think I will open a new thread, as this has slightly gone off topic)

Thanks Blackbird! You have saved me a lot of money, now and in the future. Thank you.

You should have some sense of space if you get the GTX 970 haha.
