EVGA 1000 G5, 80 Plus Gold 1000W, Fully Modular, ECO Mode with Fdb Fan, 100% Japanese Capacitors, 10 Year Warranty, Compact 150mm Size, Power Supply 220-G5-1000-X1

Almost 10 years ago, I purchased an EVGA Supernova G2 PSU. That one had a 10 year warranty, and almost 10 years later, it ran flawlessly with no issues. But as all components wear out, and a bad PSU can cripple a computer, it was time for a replacement. After reading a few reviews on several EVGA Supernova PSUs, this is the one I decided to get. My decision factors were 1. warranty and reviews - it's critical that a PSU works for the duration of its warranty. Past experience with a bad one led to a lot of trial and error and testing components. It was not fun, and definitely worth spending a bit more. 2. the Wattage. PSUs are optimally efficient in the middle 25 - 75% of their rated range. My system could've gotten by with a smaller drive, but this one was great for my use case. Lastly and most importantly, everyone should be aware that PSU modular cables are not necessarily compatible with each other, even from the same company. EVGA publishes a list of things that are compatible, but it appears outdated and a bit of a hassle to deduce. Therefore, it's critical that you always replace the existing cables when updating. The reason for this is that the PINs from the PSUs themselves may be different from machine to machine, with the cables mapping the PINs to the correct ones on the motherboard. Using the wrong cables can destroy your components. Worth it to save yourself the potential headache by just re-wiring your case.

I put it through the rigors to ensure the problems I had with the 600 W power supply I replaced (another brand) wouldn't happen with the new EVGA 1000 GT. The old PSU was fine. I just underestimated the amount of power I needed for my rig. And after duplicating the issues it passed with flying colors. To start, my GPU is rated for 400W. I thought I gave it enough cushion with the 600W PSU, even when I of course included the peripheral parts and devices in the equation. It's very quiet as well. Not dead silent, but quiet enough for my liking. I have my PC running nonstop for the 2 days since receiving it. I also wanted to make sure it was working because it was delivered tossed over our porch gate when the delivery person could've simply opened the gate and placed it on the floor. I think what saved it was the fact that the EVGA packaging has the Power supply unit reinforced with a durable Styrofoam around it inside the box. If you're delivering a package that has a fair amount of weight to it, be wary that it could be something that can break. The thing is, I had every intention of being at the door when it arrived but he got to the house earlier than I expected. All I heard was a thump from inside the house. My first reaction was, "Oh no!" Because I knew it had to be the Amazon delivery. Anyway, I recommend you try and catch the driver before they get to your porch or just have it sent to a pick-up locker to avoid potential tossing of the package. I do recommend this power supply. I will monitor its performance over the course of the month if anything bad happens I'll update this review. If no update, then you can assume all is well.

15 years a got i bought my son a custom gaming PC. It had a lot of what looked like Proprietary stuff on it. When we tried upgrading the Graphics card. it was hard but we got around it. We upgraded the Ram. and added NVME cards and SSD's to improve it. When we needed to upgrade the graphics card again, I knew I needed to upgrade the power supply also. This presented a challenge. I saw this Power supply and felt it might work. The first 4070 Super we ordered came to our house but it was the wrong product. they sent a 4060 and had to return it. once we got the 4070 Super I opened it and saw the issue. It needed 2 connections like i suspected. and the power supply on board only had one. I pulled it apart took out the old one and then opened the new one. It was a Perfect Fit in to the box!!! it powered up the system Faster than the old power supply which took my son off guard. He expected to see a minor delay. but it was instant. so Far im pretty sure this 15 year old PC has finally been maxed out. when we bought it. It had a 650 power supply 8 gigs ram, a 2 gig graphics card. and a 256 Gig hard drive. now its just as great as the top PC's out there now. :) Alas i think in 10 years i might have to buy a new one. We will see. but the Power supply here is a Beast and worth every penny. just make sure it will fit. and the mother board can handle the connections.

Great. Thank you.

I replaced my EVGA 550 watt with a 1000 watt. The 550 watt never gave me any issue I just needed more wattage, it still ran great after years of being on the floor. Cool, quiet, modular. You really can't beat EVGA's warranty or customer service, so it's worth investing in these even though you'll find cheaper power supplies. A 10-year warranty and peace of mind on a system that is known for quality performance make these worth every penny. I've been building PCs for 20 years and I don't think I'll ever use anything but EVGA for a psu anymore.

Worked as expected for two years, then one day my PC wouldn't turn on. After some troubleshooting I narrowed it down to the power supply. Luckily I kept my receipt and was able to register it through EVGA and begin the RMA process. I had to pay for shipping to EVGA (industry standard) and I got a notification that my replacement unit was shipped out the day they received my failed unit. All in all the process took 6 days. It would have been great if I didn't have to RMA at all, but it was pretty painless and I believe my experience is rare. I would buy an EVGA power supply again.

Quería comprar una de platino pero... Presupuesto jajaja pero no deja de ser una excelente fuente de poder lo único que no me gustó personalmente y esto es por la marca es el led que tiene de la E, no sabría decir si la relación calidad precio fue adecuada porque la agarré en oferta. Pero el pedido llegó en tiempo y forma entonces estoy contento con el producto.

Me encanto esta fuente ya que antes mi pc sonaba bastante los ventiladores cuando iniciaba un juego pesado, yo siempre pensé que era la tarjeta gráfica pero cuando cambié la fuente a esta de 1000w no ha vuelto a sonar ahora es totalmente silenciosa en cualquier juego.

Eh usado esta fuente de poder por una semana ya y no he tenido ni un solo problema. Excelente para computadoras que requieren mucha energía.

Buen producto, se siente de buena calidad no he tenido ningún problema con el producto

muy buena fuente me gusto mucho
