I bought an ocuk system and i am 99% sure it has this PSU. Have you got any evidence that its bad?

I have a 3 year warranty so i’m not too worried for now but this is the 5th negative comment i’ve seen about Kolink. Surely ocuk wouldn’t put crap quality in their builds??

Good review here - seems like your talking crap

Kolink Regulator 1000W 80+ Gold PSU Review

Jas supercharges his PC with the latest in ATX 3.0 Power Supply Tech thanks to Kolink. What does he make of this gold modular marvel?

That is not a review. To review a psu properly you would need test equipment that cost thousands of pounds. Also any good psu test would show the internal components as well. That so called review basically switches it on and gives it a thumbs up Also a 3 year warranty doesn't give me much confidence. Any decent psu should have 7 years minimum. High end units are usually 10 - 12 years now.

[skipper847]

I know im taking up my own topic now and you probably dont care lol but. They just waiting on the PSU and card to come in stock.

 

[Borsch]

been waiting for 2 years for this. I want everything to be compatible ... Flight sims etc.

5080 is not great for flight sims - not enough VRAM. I'm in the same boat as you - preordered a 5080, but will cancel or resell.
Here is DCS on my 3090 with over 20GB VRAM in use. Not enough VRAM = stutters, I've learnt this the hard way as I had a 3080 before. Sorry to rain on the 5080 parade

 

[WARburton]

DCS works fine on my 4080s at 1440p max setting? do you have a system problem
