I don't know about the current state of things but it used to be that
because a psu tested ok didn't mean that it was ok. I once paid a
computer shop £5 to test a psu that had been in a problematic system.
It was OK said the shop owner. So I sold it on eBay, fortunately to
someone who lived not far away, who put it in his system and found
that it wouldn't power up. (Over a few months I had changed everything
in that system to try and fix random restarts. The psu was the last
item. It hadn't been a cheap one, either.)
