Hello People,
I am not much oif a techie guy.
I got fed-up of using laptops for about a dacade now and so reverted back to pc.
PCs in Europe last 5 years with no hardware issues but here in Asia you are lucky if a part does not fail after 12 months. So bought this pc (as parts and got the shop to assemble it) and after 1 yr the power supply died. So went to another shop and had it replaced. Bad thing is, the new part died about the 3mnths later. Got fedup of the pc and now started using the old 2015 laptop for about 6mnths now. Got to get the pc working again as this laptop is 2 yrs out of date now and might die on me anytime.
If this laptop was bought here in Asia I know it wowuld have long died on me before the 5yrs was over. Chinese goods, hey!
Anyway, this is my Asian pc spec. I need your advice which power supply to buy (spec) so it lasts atleast 12months and nbot a lousy 3 month or even 1 month!

Can someone tell me if the parts specs are good or bad or ok ?
I bought all these back in Christmas 2020. Was the spec good for that year ?
For some reason the parts, especially the monitor feels like light-weight and toyish. You know how chiinese goods feel. Cheap and light weight. Toyish feeling which do not last long, unlike 80's Japanese hardwares and parts (electronics) which were heavy and good quality, lasting over 5 years. In Europe hardwares and parts (electronics) feel heavy and good quality lasting atleast 5 yrs. Hence I had no problems with my PCs and laptops, ever throughout the 5 yrs guarantees. No parts ever need replacing. And the PCs/laptops last well over 5 yrs too!
Nevertheless, they are not that much high tech quality as the Japanase electronics hardwares & parts as USA been suppliying the European markets since the 90's (ever since Japan started losing the global market as the dominator) and USA hardwares (electronics) are not that solid (good quality) as Japanese were.
But these Chinese light weight stuffs, which flood the Asian markets are a real light weight, crap quality and a total disgrace. Parts come with only 1 year warranty and most die within or fater 3 months and need fixing or replacing!
Very different from the PCs I bought in EU. hardwares there feel like real stuffs. Not toys.
This crap of a pc I bought here (yes in Asian Market) for the first time in 2020 as starting to be a headache. Hance, asking you all these questions on my spec. The shop said it was not Chinese parts as they are bad quality and last very low time. I can't remember if he said the parts were from Taiwan or what. I think he said Taiwan or maybe he said Korea. Cannot remember fully.
