Questionwhat psu should i get?
I have a Ryzen 3 3200g with 16gb ram, an ASUS Prime A320M-K motherboard, a 256gb ssd, and a psu that is currently faulty—it was purchased along with the case. I’m considering upgrading to a better psu and have three options: the PSU 550W COOLER MWE 550 Bronze V2, the Gigabyte P550B (550W 80 PLUS Bronze Gaming), and the FSP HV PRO 650 (650W 85 PLUS Bronze). If my budget is under Rp.800,000 (54$), I’ll proceed with all components.
I wouldn't be overly optimistic about it, but it would suffice in a pinch with a 1660 (the Core Reactors are the really nice XPG ones). I'd definitely prefer it over most 230V-only Cooler Master mediocrity.
In general, with a 1660, I'd steer clear of going below Tier B on this list if feasible.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer! What kind of discrete GPU do you plan to use later? If not, a 450W unit will suffice. If you're planning to use either the 450W or the Coolermaster unit for an extended period without a dedicated GPU, either option should work well. I'd recommend considering a higher-end model if you can afford it.
I'm placing an order for the Coolermaster MWE v2 Bronze and noticed two versions: ACAAB and ACABW. The ACAAB costs a bit more, and in the Cultist PSU tier list, ACAAB appears in B tier while ACABW is in C tier. What's the distinction—build quality or specifications?
The slightly pricier option isn't subject to group regulation. It makes no sense to purchase a group-regulated PSU or one designed for 230V in 2023 unless you're constructing a simple office device.
after reviewing, there were no ACAAB options in my country. i searched all stores and found only 230v only (ACABW) everywhere. are there any alternatives with similar price or a bit higher if they’re better, such as the mwe bronze v2 550w which is available in indonesia?
