I said a trusted brand like EVGA, they shouldn't buy from some sketchy brand. It was just an example. And 650W leaves them some room for upgradability in the future. Not to mention, it's always good to have some extra wattage.
Like EVGA,
like Corsair,
like be Quiet!, the same rules apply.
"Brands" sells units manufactured by various players in the space. Each "brand" typically has offerings from various manufacturers (SeaSonic, FSP, HEC, CWT et al) and they vary in quality. Some use an established platform with no changes, others require some tweaks.
EVGA, specifically have (among others)
500W, 430W, 500-700B etc - all HEC made any pretty poor quality. I wouldn't run anything greater than a 1050TI from those.
BT from SuperFlower and BQ's from Andyson & HEC -- Ok for budget units, a little better than ^^, but still not for heavy use IMO.
B2's and B3's from SuperFlower - Pretty decent
GS and PS from SeaSonic - Good quality
G2, G3, T2, P2 all from SuperFlower. - Good quality
Notice some of the "brands" in there play in various spaces? Built to a pricepoint as dictated by the "brand". So there's much more that goes into it than simply "a trusted brand
like EVGA"
That's not to pick on EVGA specifically, they're all at it.
Some of the only "brands" who manufacture their own PSUs are SeaSonic and SuperFlower (there's a couple of others). Typically, those offerings are good quality throughout..... but I'm sure theres' some budget units that could be found.
Independent reviews of a specific unit is what you should reference, not simply a "brand" (be it EVGA or anybody else).
