Modular vs Non Modular Power Supplies as Fast As Possible

[@oneaburns]

I'm building a PC for the first time and just when I think I've got it all figured out a question arises. I google it and there's Linus! Your videos are so appreciated Linus and Co. You answer everything I need and save me a ton of time from reading through forums. Thank you!

Great video Linus. Basically, semi-modular and fully-modular PS's are for enthusiasts who prioritize aesthetics and a seemingly minimal boost in airflow. Non-modular PS's are 100% ideal for a budget rig like the secondary one I just built

Haven't built a PC in many years, and was confused by the description of "modular" on the power supplies I was shopping for. Had absolutely no idea what "modular" meant. Kids of today have things so easy! Back in my day the cables were all attached, and we LIKED it. Thanks for the knowledge.

[@_Aly_00_]

But fully and semi modular do COME WITH all of the cables in the box, right? There are just not (or not all) connected?

[@Energyone]

No offense, but the ONLY power supply that has died on me in all the years I've built PCs was, in fact, a Cooler Master. They make great cases for the price though.

[@MrTWOYM]

I have one, Coolermaster Thunder 700watt. I have It running a gtx 780 and it works amazingly. No problems.

[@TheCharacter97]

Maybe yours was just faulty in a batch of 100'000. Anyways you get what i mean and personally i dont own a coolermaster PSU. I have a 685 orion and it works just fine.

[@mihalis1010]

There is a CM PSU running in my dad's system now..... It's been running nearly 24/7 for the last 9 years, only downtime was to fix broken parts and clean it.... Never had a problem with the PSU though.

[@JoshuasRecordings]

Cooler master actually makes a really good PSU!

[@Mr357]

The thing to note is they don't actually make PSU's, and the same goes for many others like Corsair and XFX. Seasonic made most of CM's recent units, such as the V series, and those have been fantastic.

[@AnuruthLertpiya]

Finally, a good ads transition. Thank you Linus and Cooler Master. I will gladly watch any ads if they are presented like this.

[@AK474000]

Love me some Fully Modular PSUs. Corsair RM series has some pretty nice modular cables.

[@JoshuasRecordings]

I have the RM750! Really nice cables!

[@AK474000]

I agree. I am not too big on the colorful braided ones. I like keeping my cables in the background and the flat black ones that come with the RM series are really nice. That and Corsair makes excellent products.

[@Z3R0F4K3]

I really like the way you did the advertising for CM in this video. Having it at the end is really much better than in the beginning.

[@MarioManPVP]

Fully modular is easily the best and worth your money. If your power supply ever fails just unplug the cables and put the new one and and reattach the cables. If a cable fails or needs to be replaced just swap it out with another cord

[@zizimugen4470]

I stuck around for the cooler master sponsored message. When the sponsor is relative to the content, it really is informative for the viewer, and leads to more research on the sponsor's products, and also on the product type in general.

[@JoshuasRecordings]

I actually used 70% of the cables included with my Corsair RM750 power supply! Oh, and finally you advertised a good company (I mean other that HotSpot shield!). Corsair is a good company for PSUs!

[@chelseaboyz4]

How is ur RM750 running, because I am also thinking of getting that psu, but I have heard that apparently it can get very loud at certain points?

[@LiamoLuo]

Geeker Its dead silent, I find the complaints are mainly from people putting it under load. Its not loud under load, its just louder than when under a low load since the fan doesn't even spin at low power, and spins up at high, obviously making it a stark contrast. But to be fair, in my rig atleast, when its under load the GPU far outweighs the PSU noise.

[@minecrafterrigheid]

Geeker i have one and dont think its very loud i never heard it actualy and the rest of my system is also very quiet. and i only use 3 cables at my psu until i get a gpu though

[@JoshuasRecordings]

Geeker I cannot tell it is on! My Noctua NH-D14 CPU cooler is louder! It is a solid, powerful PSU! I cannot even hear it when I render using Sony Vegas Pro 13!

[@chelseaboyz4]

ok, thank you for reassuring me. Will surely get this this psu for my rig.

[@blade913]

I'm glad I picked up a modular when i was thinking about using my non-modular in my new build. Airflow is up, and helps keep the room cool, and does look good.

If they don't, it's not the end of the world. What's you your ass?

[@DoomWalker42]

Thinking to get a 850 watt semi-modular PSU so I have some "future proofing" if I want to SLI in the future or just overclock my current system. It is a bit overkill for an i5 and a gtx 970 but I plan to upgrade in the near future and will want to keep as many components as possible possibly minus my case, gpu, and psu, and mobo etc.

[@monkeywithocd]

My concern was always the projected lifespan of the PSU, but I guess that concern is negated as long as you're not getting real cheap ones. The first PSU I ever bought was modular, and I absolutely love it because there's not commonly an overabundance of room in computer cases to stash unused cables.

[@MarcelEnglmaier_1]

[@TechHug]

The video that we really need is one explaining 12V rails and how many we really need. There are a lot of people out there who think that all PSUs must have at least 2 rails or they're crap and will die or blow up within a year and don't understand that, while having 2+ rails is usually good, it's not always worth the extra cost unless you are sure that you have the money to spare and that all of the rails are strong.

one thing linus did not mention about the "fully" modular power supplys is that it is easier to rout your cables from the component to the power supply so it speeds up installation.

[@masonauto631]

For personal preference. I would get a semi modular so that way I can keep my PC organized for one, and two if i need the wires I take out, I can just plug them back in. A non modular power supply is just to restricting as far as organization goes.

Put up one of those things for testing for a static charge and you'll see the outside of the bag is totally resistant to electricity/static.

[@BadWordHater]

LinusTechTips What I'm talking about Linus, is that it's safe to put the motherboard on it's antistatic bag. It won't fry it or anything. It's completely safe. Watch Carey Holzman's Mythbuster video if you don't believe me.

Zap_12100 I wanted to continue the conversation, :( don't just drop me a couple of wikipedia articles and leave it at that. I mean I KNOW how they work. Come on, we can calmly have a discussion!

[@xXDeltaXxwhotookit]

The issue comes with powering on the motherboard while it is on the bag... something that many reviewers say is a bad thing to do. This is because the bag is "slightly conductive" - you risk shorting something out if you power it on. But, as always, it's advice - ignore it if you want... better to be cautious, than to potentially fry something.

[@Map71Vette]

There is one other benefit to modular style supplies. A lot of them have a set number of outputs, but you can pick the other end of the connector you need. For instance, if you only have SATA drives and nothing that uses a 4 pin molex, you can just use modular cables with SATA ends instead of adapters to convert molex pins to SATA style. It's not just about being clean, it's about being able to pick the connectors you need most.

All I wanted was to hear you talk about Transformers, so I could learn as fast as possible, how well they function as noise and surge protectors. I searched your channel for "transformers" and had to chew on this bug for 5 minutes without even so much as a mention of the word. but it's aight, If you make a video about transformers, please take note of the versions which are grounded, and ungrounded, and which I would want to use with a computer, or stereo. I'm concerned about preserving ground-references on my computer, and also high dynamic range in my stereo. I'm also interested to see how a transformer measures up against the technology ZeroSurge has in their surge protectors, which stores the surge and releases it slowly instead of shunting it like an MOV's, I'm wondering if transformers do the same sorta thing. Anyway, Thanks bud, I love your videos :)

[@Scarecrow-zr3zx]

Another benefit of fully modular is easier troubleshooting. Just had to swap out a power supply with a different one to work out if the PSU was dead.
