Corsair RMX White Series (2018), RM850x, 850 Watt, 80+ Gold Certified, Fully Modular Power Supply - White, 80 PLUS Gold (CP-9020188-NA)

Best psu for a budget build

I’ll admit I suffered a brief episode of shock and awe when I opened these power supplies. I was sure I had selected the wrong thing. My computers are all-in-one. touch-screens and there is no way something like this would fit inside them.

Modularity made my cables much easier to deal with. I always liked corsair stuff.

Installed super easy plugged in what I needed fairly easy but this psu does output some sort of smell when its on smells like a power supply lol

Upgraded from a 550 off brand that came with my original build. Biggest upside was that my original was. Not fully modular and this was. Like why do they even make power supplies not fully modular? This was a huge step up for me.

Just fixed the power supply into my PC. It doesnt work. How do I get a replacement.

I have built many PCs over the last 20+ years. Currently I have 4 in my home office. People tell me I am lucky because I have never received a bad part on a single pc over the years. Well this is a first. It shipped fast, everything was in the package. Package was new, not damaged in any way. Built the new PC hooked everything up and...... nothing. No power no nothing. So since I have never had a bad part I was sure I hooked something up wrong. After 2 hours of pulling everything apart checking every connection still no power. So I ripped my Sexy Best 2080 TI Rzyen 7 (She was my previous gaming PC now my streaming PC) took her apart and pulled the power supply. Hooked it up to my new build (Both are Crosair models) Pc fired right up. Sad to say the power supply was dead. Took it to my local PC shop and they tested it for me. It was official, it was dead. So I went on Amazon did the return (First time ever) super easy, I asked for an exact replacement, says it will be here tomorrow. So we will see what happens. I will update when I get the new one.

As advertised.

I’ve had it coming up on two months now and it’s running strong and not too hot. I have it in my current build running a ryzen 5 3600X, NVDIA 1060 3gb GTX, 32gb Corsair RGB Ram, and ASUS motherboard ( i forgot the exact one). The modular components made it easy to install and haste free, plus it came with cable ties too which was awesome.

Love the cable management! Works great!
