Longest you've run an ATX PSU?

Just over 10 years, then it promptly blew up (Corsair).
Wont be making that mistake again.

Evga p2 1000w supernova.

Must be over 10 years old like most of my PC.

Can't even find email of when I bought it

Gees.. My motherboard I'm using came out in 2013!

My EVGA Supernova 1300 G2 is about 10 years old now it looks like. I've hardly used my PC for the last few years but only just picking it up again and it seems a bit noisier than I remember. The only fan I can hear is the PSU one so it might be time to replace

Got a Corsair HX520 from 2007ish that's still going fine, though it's not really stressed these days in a browsing/office PC.

Another Seasonic S12 600w but from 2006 so that is 18 years as a daily driver for gaming rigs. Currently running a 12400 and 4070.

Yet another Seasonic S12 500w (~2006) still running strong in a budget build!

Corsair 1000HX for over 12 years and it was second hand when I bought it. Audible whine from the fan so I bought the latest version, probably could have just replaced the fan but thought I had got my monies worth by this point!

Over a decade on my Seasonic 1000w platinum

Corsair RM750X bought in November 2016. I'm intending on using it in my new build.

I use my PSUs like l use my car tyres, to failure.

Yea my Corsair hx850 is 13-14 years old I guess. Still use it in my main gaming rig.

12 years. Another Seasonic S12 600W! Still works fine, but I felt my 7800X3D build deserved a new one! Gone Seasonic again, Prime 850W this time. Pricey, but worth it for the peace of mind IMO.

Had a Superflower Leadex running for over 10 years. Only replaced as it started getting a little noisy when the fans spun up.

Still running mine (1300w), think I'm at 8 years - still quiet though thankfully .... but I'll probably be doing a new build early next year and might have to make the move to 12v...
