850w PSU

[Africaner]

Wher can I get a 850w psu with a 5 year warrantie? I had the aOpen Z750-14AE6 and lasted me exactly 3years and 3months. My pc needs about 600-620w when maxed out. Which other reliable (and fairly cheap) PSU should I get?

If he was using an Aopen power supply before it's obvious he doesn't care about that kind of quality

Maybe have a look at:

Pinnacle Africa stock 730Watt RaidMax power supplies for around R500.
I am running 5 hard drives, cooling fans, 16GB RAM, i5 CPU and a MSI R6850 Graphics Card on it with NO Problems.

Lol.

You trust a R7000 GFX card with a R500 power supply?

You're a braver man than me.

R6850 can be rounded up to R7000.

R150 is not really worth speaking about.

I think you might be confusing an MSI R6850 with 6850 Randelas

The model number is R6850, the price is about R2000.

If you truly want a good warranty and a psu that laughs at power dips, then go look at http://www.pcpower.com/index.html

Bought a 1200w unit 8 years ago, 7 year warranty, it runs 16-20 hours every day and still no drama with it. Pc even stays on for 2-3 seconds if the power dips ( used it a while without a ups, since it needed a monster ups too heh ) They aint cheap though and getting it to SA is also expensive.
