The config :
AMD Phenom X6 1055T
Gigabyte gm UD2H
WD 1TB BLACK
Kingston 6GB DDR3 (4gbx1 & 2gbx1)
ViP 400R plus (310W Maximum)
Windows 7 and ubuntu 14.10

If i shutdown my computer and then start the computer immediately or restart it that n it wont boot up.
All the fans would rotate perfectly but there would be no signal on the screen. And if i keep the computer in this state for more then 2-3 mins then there is a burning smell which is emitted from inside my CPU.
I m forced to disconnect the power.

But it starts again after resting for 10-15 mins and works fine until i shutdown ir restart then the whole problem starts again.

Could anyone please help me out here and tell me whats the issue here.

probably an issue with that local psu. how old is it? I advice you to get it changed no matter whether problem persists or not.

Which one is better to buy, according to my config ?
I am tight on budget so maybe around Rs. 1k.

and also does it make a difference if i buy any cheap PSu or some good one ?

you need to spend atleast 2.5k to get a good quality psu and it is definitely worth the money.

^^ antec bp300p would have been way better option. if the item is not yet shipped, you may cancel order. i suggest bp300p or vp450p.

Seriously ?
Yes i can cancel the order.
But i thought corsair to be better then Antec & moreover its 450W whereas Antec is just 300W

U sure i should go for Antec Rather then COrsair ?

I cannot go for vp450p, as it is way too costly ~3000.

brand does not matter. but the product you buy, does. the quality of vs450 is inferior and not recommended. but that does not mean that corsair makes only bad/good psus. their lower end segment is not that good. you can search on google.
vp450p is available for ₹2610 on primeabgb.com. they provide free shipping till 31st dec i think.

Ah, don't compare it's 310W with Antec or even corsair's 300W .... quality wise your current PSU is way inferior so better get a new PSU specially a 400/450W one as you have a 6 core cpu and when needed you can just get a nice gpu without spending again on the the PSU.

Thank you guyz for your replies.
I think now i am not changing my Board+CPU.

I changed my smps TO aNTEC bp300p & the Restart issue was resolved.
and then i cleaned my HeatSink Fan, there was lots and lots of dust in the HeatSink,
I think the dust was blocking the air passage between the HeatSInk and CPU.
Plus i had used a cheap quality THermal Paste which is available, due to whoch the heatsink & CPU were glued togheether when i removed it & 4-5 pins of my CPU were bent.

BUt eveything is fine now, except VOLTAGE. THe VOLTAGE is still too high.

Guyz,

My Antec SMPS is not working and I need a replacement for it.
I could not find a service center address online, if you know of any service center in Mumbai please do let me know.

Thanks

Guys,

I purchased BP450PS @ 1600INR.
Is this good SMPS ?
