Can you tell me if the PSU and motherboard are compatible?
PSU - Corsair VS550(cp-9020097) Motherboard
- Gigabyte GA-Z97X Gaming-3
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

And you yourself try it, there is nothing complicated.
1. By power connectors - if all contacts with voltages, control and diagnostic signals correspond to them, then they are compatible. If your motherboard is an ordinary desktop one, then the probability of this is almost 100%.
2. If point 1 is passed, then the only incompatibility option remains - when the power supply unit produces currents along the +5 and +12 volt lines less than what the motherboard needs. But this is also almost unbelievable, since even an old weak PSU has a large supply - after all, in addition to the motherboard, it needs to power the disks and the rest that is in the case.
