You are absolutely fine except for the power supply.
I’d recommend avoiding a seasonic as I had issues with their OCP on two of their power supply.
I like the Corsair AXi series. They allow you to adjust the OCP if needed.
the corsair power supplies are built by seasonic- at least the higher spec ones.
if you had a 500w or lower unit though you might have gotten some of their older import junk.
This is incorrect.
I believe this was true far in the past.
Most of the high end stuff from Corsair are OEM,d by flextronics.
mm, tells you how up to date i am. i will stop spreading such misinformation.
the last time i was SUPER super in tune with all the peripherial stuff was like 2015. thanks
Ya bro that was like 3 years ago
Personally, Seasonic is the PSU manufacturer I generally recommend. Especially when you start getting over a kilowatt of rated power delivery.
The only issues I’ve had with Seasonic have been related to OCP, which just kills power to the system and then resets. Unlike some other manufacturers like Rosewill, Silverstone, or the generic manufacturers that used to be included with cases where a power spike on either end has killed a number of other components, including my Pentium 4.
But my Seasonic PSUs have generally held up fine, even during XOC type situations. Such as a modded GTX 780ti and an FX-9590 with LN2 pots.
I have a 3090.
Don’t get a seasonic to run it.
Most especially if it’s a duel 8 pin 3090.
I went through a prime ultra 850 (fair as it was being pushed)
Then I got a prime 1300w and it still had issues in very high gpu power use games like metro exodus.
In the end they had a sale on Corsair axi1600 and I got that and it’s been stable ever since.
