I have used a aerocool integrator in my pc since jan 2021 without issue. Mine is semi modular and only concern i hsd was HWMonitor falsely reporting 12v rail at 10.4v, still does! Yet Asus mb shows 12.4v! Black cabling neater and prefer semi mod as cabling not my strongest suit lol dont understand why case builders dont adopt blk cables. Thanks for reviewing Mike and Kath👍stay cool
Ive got no doubt that brand-snobs may indeed decide to go for an EVGA or Coolermaster PSU but this Aerocool Bronze one shouldnt be ignored, especially with flat cables. Cant knock the price for what the buyer would get for their money. Nice one Aerocool and thank you Mike and Kath.
Mike, I am running a 650watt Seasonic Platinum power supply with an RX 6900xt and 3900x, I am not having any problems at all, why do you think that a 700watt power supply can only do a 3060 and 5600?
because the efficiency, 700w bronze will likely only give constant 600w and the quality of components is a factor, a seasonic platinum is almost 100% of the rated power output and uses very high end components.
I prefer the black flat liquorice cables for my builds 😉👍. I personally spend a little more for a higher end psu for all my builds 😇, I have 1x B-Tier ATX EVGA Platinum rated and 2x A-Tier Corsair ITX Platinum rated and 1x ITX Cooler Master Gold rated psu for my builds. I previously had an ATX Silverstone titanium psu but didn’t need my 1300w psu any more with my ITX builds being my build size of choice 🥰🤯🤩
Back in the days 80+ was a safe way to make sure the PSU held really high quality. Today sadly, many of the bronze PSUs lack some of the basic safty features a modern PSU should have. Don't know about this one though. Usually I check hardware busters tests of cheaper PSUs to make sure it's not total garbage in terms of safety. In general, stepping up to gold ceritification they usually have better build quality. But even gold PSUs there are exceptions. But since there are often really good deals of less known gold PSUs I usually go for one of those. I know aerocools aero series of bronze PSUs they should be decent. Maybe these are too.
@@PapaMav Gold doesn't mean better quality than Bronze. I never said that. But chances are bigger that it also have better quality if you go with a Gold certified PSU since there are so many crappy bronze PSUs out there these days. To know for certain you need to knowlage of how to properly test a PSU and analyze how it's built, what type of capacitors are being used and so on. Or check out a review from someone who knows to do that. Like hardware busters for example.
@@ChrisKadaver but that is also what you just inferred (again) in your reply: "chances are bigger that it also have (sic) better quality if you with a Gold certified PSU"....Basis?
@@PapaMav It seems that it is harder to make a PSU that meets the gold certification efficency with crappy components. Take Kolink for example. Their Enclave series of gold certified PSUs have great quality for the price while their lower tier, bronze and 80+ white PSUs are trash. I don't know if they've released newer series of bronze/white PSUs that hold the same high quality as their gold PSU because it was a while since I checked it out, but I highly doubt it. Same goes for Cooler Masters series of PSUs. The quality of their Bronze series of PSUs holds a lower quality than what probably many would expect while their Gold certified PSUs are great when comes to quality and safety features. So if you just randomly pick either a bronze PSU or a gold PSU from either of those two brands, chances are that you'll get a better quality PSU if you go for the gold PSUs. And I would guess this would be true for other manufacturers as well in general. And it would be a good advice for people just taking a chance when buying a random PSU without doing any research for the specific model they're checking out. It's kind of logical, isn't it? If you easily could make a crappy PSU, that cost nothing at all to make that reaches the efficiency of the gold certification, well why wouldn't everybody do that then? There are probably exceptions as I said before. Poorly made gold PSUs and better quality bronze ones.
Hi, Mike. How's the back? I've endured two back surgeries and six months of rehabilitation with each, so I know all about that. In regards to PSUs, I'm still very happy with my 850-watt Seasonic.
back is getting better got some mobility now, which is nice especially in this weather, i wish seasonic were more favourably priced here as i would like to get one at some point, got a thermaltake and a silverstone that do a good job at the moment, but one day i'll have a seasonic!
@@PapaMav There was no way to know about the Gigabyte bomb. They did everything in their power to hide the defect. I'll never buy anything else for them. If it wasn't for tech Jesus and Jay finding out about the defect and warning everyone, that PSU would probably still be in my system just waiting to surprise me with a big bada boom.
@@OlettaLiano sure there was: prior to it being widely broadcast, Jay had already and previously, stated in one of his vids to stay away from them (I messaged you at the time he said same) loooonggg before little Stevie came along and rang the alarm bell. Big hints are when no one can get hold of whom the OEM is. You're mature enough and by your own accounting, have built enough computers in your time, to see this as a red flag....
I'd put one in a build to flip but foujd a few 1 or 2 year old 500/650w Seasonic CORE GC / GM on ebay for £15-25. 3080s etc must trip OCP or something then peeps list the Seasonics as not working lmao

@@mikesunboxing Rest of the system is also 7 years old. So I know i won't get best performance out of this card i just wondering would it be safe for the 2080 super (thats what i actually have now) to be plugged with daisy chain with this PSU as it have only one Pci-e cable with x2 8 pin (6+2) connectors. Would it be enough power to run this card and wouldn't something go wrong. At the moment i have i5 4690k cpu on z-97x gaming 5 mobo and it will be all changed soon but would like to use 2080 s for now until my new components arrive, just wondering if it would be safe for GPU.

it does seem to be a pretty decent option and is at the right price for a more budget minded build
i have the 850w version of this and it has been great
Solid PSU tbf Aero Cool have been good for price to performance recently not premium by any means but a solid budget option
