Helpful Power Supply Tips

  • Leave Room to Grow
    Planning future upgrades? Go with a PSU that offers a little extra power.

  • Check for Efficiency Ratings
    Look for 80 Plus certifications—these models use power more efficiently and generate less heat.

  • Double-Check Compatibility
    Make sure your PSU fits your case and supports the connections your components need.

Why Proper Power Supply Selection Matters

An underpowered PSU can lead to system instability, random shutdowns, or even component damage. On the other hand, an extremely oversized PSU may waste energy and money. Our calculator helps you find the sweet spot for reliable performance.
