Suggestions for GTX 1060 Build

[bssunilreddy]

I bought ZOTAC GTX 1060 from MD computers.. It's available locally here for 24k... And I initially went for Antec only.. But it's service center is not here in pune... Whats wrong in this PSU.. I will ask if it can be returned

Corsair VS Series PSU's have are Some of the secondary side capacitors are made by Aishi, but most are from CapXon – a brand renowned for poor quality capacitor.

Even in an entry level product, it surprises me that Corsair would be brave enough to use them, as I have had to fix plenty of devices with failed CapXon capacitors which weren’t very old. Even Teapo and OST capacitors are generally considered to be more reliable than CapXon.

Replace Corsair VS550 with Antec VP550P or Corsair CX500M. I think so Corsair CX500M will be readily available and there is a service center in Pune.

If it was available locally for 24k then why did you pay extra to get it from MD?

i had already ordered from there earlier...

Oh ok. How many days did it take for the card to reach your place?

Antec doesn't have service centres. You have to give it to from where you have bought. They handle the RMA process. Buy from local store who are either official sellers or reputed stores coz it will be easy then.

just put 1 case fan in the front, 1 back, 1 on cpu. works best.
the case should already come with some fans I suppose.

if you want to light up the case, buy a led sleeve, this is better than actually using led fan.
