It's a tier 4 unit on this reference list https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/631048-psu-tier-list-updated/

I'm not sure what makes it tier 4, but there are better units available for presumably the same price.

These are all tier 1 units https://pcpartpicker.com/products/compare/PvDzK8,vfBrxr,jWFXsY,VgQG3C/
 


You really are thinking about hooking that junk PSU up to 2x 1080Ti's or 1080's, really?

A better PSU than that unless you don't care about losing a bunch of cash when that PSU takes out the GPU's.

A good quality 750W PSU like below:

Seasonic Focus Plus 750W
Corsair RMX 750W
EVGA G3 or G2 750W

Personally I would go with a Seasonic Prime 750W if it was my system.

 


Yeah, that's what I was thinking. 1000W would be what I would use. Tier 1.
