As I am looking at building another newer PC workstation with PCIe 5, DDR5 components I thought I had sufficient spare PSUs (2X 1000W, 1X 1300W, or 1X 1600W G2 EVGA Gold 80) to pick from. I just discovered that maybe I should have a designated ATX3.0 PSU with the proper connectors to use for the new workstation.

I'm not a huge watcher of tech channel YouTube but Gamers Nexus and JayzTwoCents have some good content regarding ATX 3.0 and the potential issues people may have.

Re: ATX 3.0 POWER SUPPLY
I browse the channels occasionally and came across what I'm guessing is the same video, here for those that haven't seen it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6FiGEAp928 Not sure I'd be an early adopted of the new nVidia cards, certainly not as a retrofit for an existing workstation.sim.herrod wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 10:47 am I'm not a huge watcher of tech channel YouTube but Gamers Nexus and JayzTwoCents have some good content regarding ATX 3.0 and the potential issues people may have.

Re: ATX 3.0 POWER SUPPLY
This is why we always go for custom builts rather than DIY...we don't have enough knowledge to not make an expensive mistake.

Re: ATX 3.0 POWER SUPPLY
You're lucky to have quite a number of good custom builders across the UK who price reasonably for their work, certainly a good way to go where that's an option. Not so much option here in Dublin, plus if I'm honest, I quite enjoy the build process. There are also a number of forums for self builders where people will may parts recommendations and check your own build list for mistakes and inefficiencies.sim.herrod wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 2:06 pmThis is why we always go for custom builts rather than DIY...we don't have enough knowledge to not make an expensive mistake.

Re: ATX 3.0 POWER SUPPLY
Yeah, the company we use are only a small premium over and above what we could buy the parts for, plus the work (as well as the parts obviously) is warrantied.smacl wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 2:25 pm You're lucky to have quite a number of good custom builders across the UK who price reasonably for their work, certainly a good way to go where that's an option.

I'm going to have a crack at building a system for myself, but that's a bit different to speccing and building a £10k+ workstation with someone elses money.
