Re: quiet budget cpu cooler for r3 3100
Another thing to consider is idle noise. For me this is way more important than noise at full load, since the system idle most of the time and at load other things like maybe the graphics card fans will also get louder making the CPU fan less of a main concern. The fan can play a bigger role than t...

Re: am i asking for trouble
Possible? Of course it's possible , but is it probable ? Not really, unless you've created a short circuit! Have you? A destroyed protection should likely end up blocking the power on that line so you get no output in normal use. It could be that it instead is shorted, and won't cut the power if yo...

Re: am i asking for trouble
I've got that PSU. It's very overkill in its design (with components better suited for a 1,500 W PSU) so unless the fan is broken (which you can easily replace) there should be no problems. I expect to keep my PSU running for another decade... hi now that my pc is all appart how can i test the fan?

Re: best long term psu silent
The PSU takes AC mains in and outputs several DC voltages, +12v and +5v and others. Those are called rails and you can measure them. For example, the ATX specs says that the 12 volt rail should be 12 volts plus or minus 5%. So between 11.4 and 12.6 volts. One way to know if a PSU is failing is to m...

Re: best long term psu silent
the question remains valid since no one seems to have the knowledge to answer if the psu can actually damage other components considering the protections device. sorry if the question is redundant for you

Re: what should i buy (i dont do 3d stuf. i do a bit of video editing)
I'd keep the PSU, case and optical reader. (It's the same that I actually have!) Get new motherboard (B450 or B550 based, see below), 2x8 GB 3,200 MHz RAM, 1 TB SATA SSD. As for CPU/graphics I see two options: 1. A Ryzen APU (3000G or better) that you expect to keep for at least a couple of years. ...

so when will price drop?
in the meanwhile, is there a reel risk of using my old psu ( i dont know if it is broken) with new components considering it has protection circuits?
