.. why is this PSU so cheap? It's on at least one tier list as being A+ rated. It's 80+ Platinum. No idea if it has the latest connector for Nvidia, but I don't really personally need or care about that.

Sold and shipped by walmart.com, so should be a legit seller. Has a 10 year warranty. Returnable in store. What am I missing? lol

(I acknowledge there are some bad reviews.. but still sold and shipped by walmart. Maybe a bad batch?.. but come on that price still)

Huh? Why would you expect to pay much more than $130 for a 1000W PSU?

Yes, you can get a high quality Seasonic 1000w PSU for that price 🤔

Because not everyone watches the good sites for deals
