… why is this PSU so cheap? It’s on at least one tier list as being A+ rated. It’s 80+ Platinum. No idea if it has the latest connector for Nvidia, but I don’t really personally need or care about that.
Sold and shipped by walmart.com, so should be a legit seller. Has a 10 year warranty. Returnable in store. What am I missing? lol
(I acknowledge there are some bad reviews… but still sold and shipped by walmart. Maybe a bad batch?.. but come on that price still)
Why is this so cheap?
Yeah, I’m aware of that. I’ve worked in the hardware business myself (even though for Graphics Cards, Mainboards and the like), so thanks for pointing it out, I’m sure many are not aware. So no need to apologize at all. I switched to Seasonic myself something like 15 years ago and never looked back. Before that, a cheap PSU grilled a 500 Euro Graphics Card and another literally went up in smoke (Enermax) the first time I switched the system on. I’ve learned my lesson and payed the price.
