[QUOTE="plat, post: 911469, member: 74969"] Since this is refurbished, most of its useful life is already in the past! If it's some generic, no-name psu, my trust factor takes a little dive. Do you have a decent (not a "Dollar General" special on sale) surge protector for it? Enjoy it while it lasts. Any generic psu-to-wall outlet cord should work. I re-used a cord from a previous build--no problem. If you're concerned about adequate power delivery to the three rails, [URL='https://www.hwinfo.com']HWiNFO64[/URL] can be useful for telling you about the 3.3, 5 and 12 volt rails. I'm not sure about any deviations but I think it's +/- 5% of 3.3, 5 and 12. Maybe a little more; you can search online. Example: (looks like I don't have too much headroom but it's adequate for having gathered dust in a dark closet for over 2 years): [ATTACH type="full" alt="psu rails.PNG"]248195[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
