.. why is this PSU so cheap? It's on at least one tier list as being A+ rated. It's 80+ Platinum. No idea if it has the latest connector for Nvidia, but I don't really personally need or care about that.
Sold and shipped by walmart.com, so should be a legit seller. Has a 10 year warranty. Returnable in store. What am I missing? lol
(I acknowledge there are some bad reviews.. but still sold and shipped by walmart. Maybe a bad batch?.. but come on that price still)
Why is this so cheap?
What the hell is "Cybenetics quality standards"? That's not a real rating.
Speak for yourself. I bought this PSU for my Neuralink

Not after the incident. Court ordered
It's like when companies say "military grade" on their parts...if you know anything about military that means it's the absolute most shitty quality, the cheapest of the bidders that just "gets the job done", but only just.
It’s not shitty quality. It’s built to spec, if the spec was shit then yeah, they get shit, because no contractor is going to overbuild and bust profit beyond the required spec.
Cybenetics is an alternative to the 80+ rating system, supposedly more thorough and demanding. Here's a writeup from Corsair on the differences as part of their switch to use only Cybenetics going forward.
Cybernetics is the leading authority in PSU testing. This is the report for this power supply:

It doesn't seem too bad from that test.
