I performed a stress test on my PC using the 446 Watt range from the wall, as measured by a Kill-A-Watt meter. My high-quality Seasonic 650 watt PSU keeps me within the 69% power draw zone, which is considered safe. Some might argue that running at the full 80% would be acceptable since it rarely reaches that level during normal tasks like gaming or heavy rendering for extended periods.

Thank you for the details, this really clarified things for me. I’ll compare prices in Argentina, since a Sentey PSU isn’t well-reviewed and seems to be expensive (over 100usd). Usually higher-end models exceed 200usd, but I’ll look at what’s available. Appreciate your support!

Many Sentey power supplies have uncertain reliability.
