I kept the power supply wrapped still until today, just lying there as a backup. I tried to check if it has an 8 pin PCIe connector (which it does) for use with a 5600XT in another PC. My main worry is whether it’s group regulated or not. If that’s the case, I might store it again and use the EVGA G2 550 as a backup. I’m finding very limited information about this model. I’d even look inside and take photos if it could help confirm its regulation status.

It offers stable voltage control. However, for optimal performance, choose the EVGA G2 as it performs significantly better.

Yeah, I talked with some electronics guys in discord and they assured it was not group regulated. Thanks for the reply. This is a very basic family PC so don't have to bring out the big guns for PSU. I will swap it if this one becomes unstable.
