So im building my brother in law a pc for a late xmas present i dont see him or my sister until next friday to exchange presents and a friend of mine is offering me a 750w xfx psu for no charge only thing is i dont know much about them

Most of their ranges were good and should have no issue with the 750w

How old is the PSU?

If it is fairly new you should have no issues as RJC said.

Couple of months old he upgraded to a xfire/watercooled rig so needed a lot more grunt

They are all Seasonic built so will have quality internals.

Using a black edition XFX 850w 80 plus gold here. It is indeed very reliable.

My previous core edition 550w developed fan clicking after 2.5 years. Got it refunded through retailer but xfx support wasn't there. I didn't bought it from ocuk though.

In most cases they have seasonic internals, my xfx 580w black must be 5 years old and still going strong

Every single XFX psu is Seasonic made.

I had one break on me after a year, but I did have my rig I have now running crossfire HD 7850 back then. XFX Core Edition 550w it was.
