PSU Ranking and Tiers 2015

Tier 3 (Acceptable)
Mag 3770 nah baya ko padung haha may gneh kay dili unlocked kay e-push to the limit gyud baya unta nako.
3770 can still be pushed up to 4.5Ghz though kay apil mani sa mga limited unlocked CPUs.

major tip sad ni sa mga first time builders. Not to compromise on the PSU kay dira nakasalalay tanang parts nimo. Stay away from Thermaltake Litepower series kay although naa siya sa same tier as my current PSU, after 3months of use magpa-RMA naka(Been there).

ay no problem ra Sir kay naa ko kauban gikan sa US mubalik Pinas this december mao mamalit ko online.. mao sad problem sad kung maguba.. hmmm.. naa pa ba stocks ng imung superflower, Sir tung pagpalit nimu sa FineUpgrades? basin kanah na lang cguro ako paliton.

It's your option bro if you wanna take advantage the price and get the PSU since barato ra sya and naa ka kauban sa US nga mo balik sa Pinas, but the disadvantage is, if maguba imong PSU, then you need to ship it back to US for warranty purposes, it means another cost for shipping and waiting for how many days before you can get back your PSU, it also means if your PSU is dead, then you need to buy a temporary replacement while waiting for your PSU. So, mas dako na hinuon kag gasto, but yaw lang pag ampo nga maka timing ka og defective unit.

Ang naka advantage if u'll buy it here sa Pinas, though it's a few bucks more 4k+ PHP comparing to 5.5k+ PHP, thats around 1.5k+ PHP only, no worries nka if ang PSU mo tiurok / maguba kay u'll have a 5 years warranty from FU they will replace it right away.

Proud Seasonic owner here. Bought my S12II 520W over 2 years ago, still kicks ass in my current i7-3770/R9 280X rig.

My personal preference for OEMs are Seasonic, Delta Electronics, Super Flower and Flextronics (they really only make the AXi series for Corsair).

There is a constantly updated list on the Tom's Hardware forums that lists PSUs in tiers and is very comprehensive. It lists OEM and 80+ rating beside the brand and model of the PSU. It's really worth a look. You can find it here
