No complaints with current PSU. No coil whine. I blow it out every 3-6 months with compressed air.
Stays on 24/7 some days. Was migrated from old system.
Intel E8400, GA-P35DS3, 4gb RAM, 550Ti.

So to upgrade or not?
Nearly pulled the trigger on EVGA G5 750W but cancelled. Looking at the RMX 850W now as its just a bit more than the 650/750W RMX.

Hope the fine folks here at Toms can give some input.
Thank you.

Oh, definitely upgrade. You've definitely been rolling the dice with this one; it only has 312W of +12V power available! I think I would have replaced this in 2008.

You'd be perfectly fine with a 650 RMx.

A quality 450watt will run your system. For head room look for quality 550-650watt unit. Great deal at the moment. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/fn...ed-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-hcg650-gold

Kind of what I was thinking. For my own peace of mind I went and bought the Corsair RMX850W.
Wanted the RMX650W, but the local retailer only had the RMx850W. Probably overkill but was also thinking of getting maybe a Radeon 5700XT or 2060S. To drive the 144Hz 1440p Q27G1.

Thanks for the replies.
