damole Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I have used all the PC components from my old gaming PC desktops to build another PC but I need a new PSU with an 8 pin VGA connector. I am not sure I really need a modular PSU as I am going to build a Linux Apache webserver for use on my LAN instead of using XAMPP on my development machine but semi-modular seems like a good middle way. Any suiggestions that are available from Advice/Jib/Shopee or Lazada? I think 2500 Bt should be my budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 IMHO power supplies should have no connectors which are not necessary. Why use: power supply - connector - cable - connector When: power supply - cable - connector is available One more connector, or in reality many more, are just more possibilities for failure. Get a brand name power supply with no gimmicks and all is fine. I built hundreds of PCs over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damole Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 Thanks for the advice/suggestion. As this build is not about ultimate performance and as I have already been shamed on these forums for my untidy cable management and survived I'll take you advice and just buy a regular SMPS.
