I recently bought this PSU for my first build. I hadn't read up a lot on power supplies so when i saw this for sale in a local shop I picked it up.
After searching round the internet I've seen that its got a fairly bad name but no real info on it to back this name up. I haven't had any bad experiences with it so far.
My system is:
-I5-3570k overclocked @4.4GHz W/coolermaster cooler
-Z77-D3H mobo
-16GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM
-Sapphire Vapor-x HD7970 3GB on 'Boost setting'
-G7 850W Extreme Modular PSU
Everything runs fine on both Crysis and on ultra settings with various mods, so its under a fairly heavy load for long duration.
The specs for it aren't too bad from what i can tell. It's certified to have an 86% plus efficiency. It has 4, 12V rails with 12v1 at 20amps and the rest at 18 or 19(I haven't got it in front of me so I'm not 100% which one it is). I'll post up more specs once I'm home and have the box in front of me.
Overall I'm happy with this PSU but would you recommend changing it over or should I stick with it based on the good experience I've had with it so far?
I'll be looking to swap my mobo out next year after Christmas and will be Crossfiring two of the above Sapphire cards, so would i have to swap this PSU out?
