This build exceeds $1800 CAD; I noted that point.
Everything seems okay except for this PSU. It's not working properly. You might be putting the whole build at risk with this one in your PC.
Thanks! It's nice to know I didn't choose a problematic CPU.
guessing you mean, PSU?
it's important to look into the topic thoroughly so you understand the reasons behind potential problems with low-quality units for future builds or upgrades.
some might lead to system malfunctions, others could fail under pressure, and in extreme cases, they might damage connected devices permanently.
Thanks, I've begun watching a few videos on the topic, and it really helped me a lot.
