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 have the exact same version except in black but the cords on this 1 are extremely hard to get in and pull out! It feels like Im going to damage something just by trying to plug it in or out and I dont think Im going Corsair PSU next time. Whats the deal corsair?

Works as expected

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.

Love it

Worked for one day. When I went to boot up again, no lights came on, but the PSU was making a very quiet repetitive chirping sound. I tried disconnecting everything from it, but the sound was the only sign of life. I upgraded to the 850 and its doing fine. Must have been a dud.

PSU in my custom computer.

I read the bad reviews and thought pshhhh these people just don’t know what they are doing. Well I should have listened. I bought a 3070 ti so needed an upgraded power supply. I changed over the GPU and power supply. As soon as I hit the power button it was popping and cracking. Fried my 1200 dollar gpu fried my 1TB sshd and fried all my fans. I’m so screwed and out so much money I could cry.

condition status was not new and showed up dead on arrival

As someone who has built and repaired a couple computers in my life, non-modular PSUs is never an option for me. Even on budget builds I make room for a good, fully modular PSU from a trusted reputable brand.
