Top positive review

Short cables!

Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2021

Not necessarily a problem, easily fixable for my use with cable extensions , but clearly something I overlooked and ended up needing to sort out. Needed it to be used a relatively low power server.
Adapter bracket worked great, and supply runs quiet. Will try to remember to update, if any problems arise.

Noisy.

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2020

Easy enough to install, works as advertised... for the most part. This is the loudest PSU I have ever owned. I downgraded from my gaming rig to a mini-itx setup to reduce heat and noise, and to my disappointment the fan runs at 100% at all times, which is noisy as hell in my quiet room.

I have to remove stars because this is specifically advertised as a quiet PSU. It is not.

Not the prettiest PSU, but does the job without hiccups.

Nice SFF PSU, my only real complaint is regarding the fact that the motherboard cable was a couple cm too short to hide behind the cable management compartment on my case (TU150 by Lian Li), and had to be routed right across the front of everything.

The mustard and ketchup cables are hidden well enough under the sleeve, specially once you have the glass panel in place, but the terminations are pretty visible, however it's easily fixed with some black electrical tape and a steady hand.

Quiet, hard to find power supply works great

There aren't many power supply options in the SFX form factor available. The power supply in my desktop was pretty noisy, the fan worked fine it just ran at a high speed all the time even though the load was light (less than 100 watts). I installed this a couple months ago and it runs much more quietly and I haven't had any issues with it. Using a watt meter, it is also consuming less overall power than before so this is definitely a more efficient power supply than the old one I replaced.

Does the Job for a good Price. Wires are Thin.

Install was a breeze but the wires are a little thin. I was only pushing around 150-200 Watts though. I noticed zero noise from the fan from about 40" away.
