thermaltake litepower 700 (weird model)

[xauke]

after few years i realised i have this weird looking tt psu that says 700 but doesnt say watt
is this actually good psu or a [censored] psu from tt

Peak output power (claimed) is as the model number suggests, 700w, but max power only 600w.

It's a Tier 3 model - - so not one we would recommend, could best be described as no more than "adequate" for a no-frills basic system.

I haven't read anything good about it. If it was in my system I'd be changing it ASAP.

Only 600W on a 700W unit, only 2 years warranty, being labelled "lite"
Nothing I'd want my hardware to interact with if possible

i guess i have to change it then im going to be getting a new gpu rx 480 8gb or gtx 1060 or even higher what psu should i get for decent price ?

Look for Fractal Design Edison M

Great quality units made by Seasonic
And great price in AUS, compared to the other quality supplies (which is quite funny as in all other parts of the world the Edison M is wildly overpriced)

550W should usually suffice unless you're running an overclocked FX9590
