Goodbye old friend!

So my poor old Enermax Galaxy is giving me the 3 beeps after many years of great service. Fans failing I think. I might give it a good clean to see if that helps but I’m thinking a new 1000w psu..any recommendations?

cheers

Yes, it’s done well. I did over spec when I bought it just to future proof. I’m only running a 2070 super and about 4 hard drives. Not sure what I actually need power wise tbh. I’m going to take the PSU out tomorrow to see how easy a fan replacement will be. Just had a quick look on here and lots of PSU’s are sold out.

cheers

Just been on a psu calculator and it reckons I use about 600w.
