I have a Seasonic PSU from somewhat of a bygone era, think its ~10 years old. Its an 80 Plus Platinum SS-860XP(2), so assume 860W active PFC f3, if those mean anything. Its got a modular front to connect mobo components to as needed rather than having all the cables in.
This blew this morning, and is now dead. I was wondering about replacing it, with a new seasonic - happy with the brand - the similar 850 is out of stock so perhaps the 750 will be sufficient? I was hoping by purchasing the same basic supply i can just replug in the ends rather than having to recable up my entire PC? I've got a Geforce 1080 Ti, 1TB ssd, and 64GB of DDR3 ram with an I7 in an ageing motherboard. I'm not likely to upgrade anytime soon (not allowed to
) so I don't think I need anywhere near the 860W (I was running 2 cards at one point which is why I think I had such a high one).
Was sort of thinking about the https://www.overclockers.co.uk/seas...-platinum-modular-power-supply-ca-07a-ss.html.
TIA.
