RIP the power supply from my ghetto build (OCed FX-8370E, OCed RX460, OCed HezperXs and 4x various HDDs). I had this fucker for like a month. Was like 15$ new. Rated at 350W I took like 200-250W from it.
I guess the 3.3V rail died. 3/10 no shrapnel or any other component.
Don't fall for the cheap power supply meme guys.
Next up is some 250W FSP server PSU I just found!

Only retards will tell you it's ok to OC on a cheap PSU. You didn't fall for a meme, you're just a dumbass.
>>60697233
Nah. I've just used whatever I had lying around. Also it's not like I've exceeded the specs of the PSU.
>>60697275
>I've just used whatever I had lying around.
so basically you're saying you're a dumbass?
>>60696849
I've never once seen anyone suggesting a cheap power supply. If anything, getting a good psu is one thing everyone can agree on.
You deserve this OP
>>60697289
By building a ghetto pc for fun? Sure.
>>60696849
>bought the cheapest PSU I could find
>it lasted a month and a half
>>60696849
You will kill that 250w within a month
fx8350 115w
radeon rx460 115w
4x harddrives at least 20w
and this isn't considering the overclock
You should google before you kill that innocent server psu desu.

Cheap power supplies aren't a meme, they are just a sign of utter stupidity.
>>60697601
Wanna bet?
(Also the cpu is like 100w after OC tops)
>>60697616
It's the same meme tier like /o/'s "changing oil was made up by the jews"
>>60696849
>Overclocking on a 15$ PSU
Are you retarded?
>>60697730
I just love to live dangerously m8
Good PSU's are already cheap? Newegg always has sales on them for like $50
And is that s picture of it exploded? Idk what I'm looking at
>>60697772
>good PSU
>$50
minimum seems to be more like $100
>>60697772
It didn't explode unfortunately. Actually the 12V rail is still working albeit only on like 500mA...
Installing the 250W PSU as we speak.
>>60697670
still sketchy desu. why not buy a decent psu. They last multiple builds.
>Cheap power supply meme
Christ, that's not a fucking meme you retard. If anything buying OP power supplies is the meme (which isn't to say it's not important to buy a good one).
That's like saying
>I fell for the celeron meme
You're just retarded.
>>60697896
Maybe in the future. If I will ever need this PC for something serious. I have several computers lying around...
>>60697601
Looks fine.
I give it two months.
