bro psu's are the most important part of any pc, psu hold the life of every other component dont cheap on it buy 80+ Gold and above prefer Superflower/seasonic or Corsair

I wouldn't buy a used psu either. You have no idea how much use it's had. And also what the guy above said

 

[Benjamin Franklin]

When you buy a used psu you are overall getting less lifetime out of it since it was used, plus it could have defects and dust build up, buying a new psu ensures that it has maximum lifetime, no problems, and potentially longer lifetime since you can prevent things like dust buildup in the first place

guaranteed to fail on you sooner

They degrade over time. I would recommend a Supernova 80+ gold from EVGA in whatever wattage you need.

Depends who makes it and what type of deal I'm getting on it. I don't think it would bother me that much. People are over thinking this a little bit.
