I wouldn't pair that VS series PSU with anything that is remotely close to a computer. It's a horrible unit. IMHO, if you value your investments on the PC, and want to upgrade down the road, pick up a good quality PSU with a little more wattage than you need.

I've seen issues with EVGA Supernova G3 and G2 units, so, i'd avoid them. Instead, for a good quality PSU, i suggest getting any Seasonic unit, in 600W range. E.g: Focus 650 (80+ Gold), Focus+ 650 (80+ Gold), PRIME SnowSilent 650 (80+ Platinum) or PRIME Ultra 650 (80+ Titanium),
pcpp: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/compare/WrNypg,qn7v6h,yJgzK8,fnjJ7P/

Warranty wise:
Focus: 7 years
Focus+: 10 years
PRIME: 12 years (includes all PRIME models: regular, Fanless, AirTouch, SnowSilent, Ultra)

All my 3 PCs: Skylake, Haswell and AMD are also powered by Seasonic while i have the PRIME 650 (80+ Titanium) unit in Skylake build. Full specs with pics in my sig.

Everybody has issues. Everybody has failure rates. Some just have less than others. Seasonic issues in the Prime series happen to be with the price tag. For most pc's, the Primes are way over priced and unnecessary, even as good as they are. The cheaper focus/focus+ gold are plenty good and on par with the Corsair RMx and Evga G2/G3.
I own a Seasonic M12-II and a Evga G2, both have been flawless for the last 6 years.

Seasonic PRIME series (especially 80+ Titanium) is the best money can buy at current date and with that, you'll get premium price. Then again, some people want the best of the best, hence why i keep the PRIME series part of my PSU suggestion.
