• Competitor rules

    Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension. The full rules can be found under the 'Terms and Rules' link in the bottom right corner of your screen. Just don't mention competitors in any way, shape or form and you'll be OK.

Upgrade my CPU?

The PSU is adequate unless:
  • You want to overclock.
  • You install an i9 or Threadripper CPU.
  • You want to use a Vega, Radeon VII, GTX 2080, or other high-end graphics card.
It wasn't the best choice. But it doesn't really need to be replaced if all you're doing is swapping out the i3 8100 for an i5 8400 or i7 8700. You aren't going to derive any benefit from spending £50-£80 on a replacement.
