I'm using a Xigmatek NRP-PC702 700W, which is the oldest part in my PC (about 5-6 years old). I'm unsure if I should be concerned about reliability when overclocking. Based on reviews, it looks solid enough for 2010 standards, but my main worry is its age. Thanks for any advice.

It appears there are mixed opinions about the dependability of this PSU. If it has worked well for you over time, I’d suggest giving it a chance. You’ll be able to track all power and voltage levels while it’s being used.
