Pre-builts aren't all bad.

I haven't been on here in a long while.
I did get one last year from Best Buy.
The so off brand PSU was unheard of by 2 people in my family that have worked with computers and I.T.

Original:
Apevia 800W Presige PSU - ATX-PR800W

Current:
Corsair RM1000x

I scored a deal on a 4TB SSD which was to be my 2nd HDD.
Started having random freezes and shutdown/restart.
My uncle helped diagnose the errors and most were "Power stability issue."

He helped me narrow down what was the most likely problem. No problems since replacing that crap PSU.
It's a Cyperpower and for my first pre-built I have little experience to go on.
I do suggest that one replaces the PSU and get a modular one at that.

You do have to be careful when looking at Pre-Builts. I just checked CyberPower UK and a £2k pc was using a Corsair PSU and a £1k pc was using an In-win PSU.

I'd only use a company if it has a proper configuration tool.

that is their stock rubbish PSU they put in any PC where the buyer doesn't ask for something better, like your Corsair.

Not all premades are bad, just most of the big name companies are probably best avoided. The bigger they get, the cheaper the parts are they put in. I wouldn't buy one from Corsair, Dell, Acer, Asus, and maybe HP. They make them in bulk and a lot of cases they don't pass the tests

hmm, so why is Xenforo showing the German text on an English video?

this one is bad, had a 10 year old GPU in it

I would only use one if they let you choose from a range of parts... want a different case? okay... different CPU? okay... its your money.
