    As described

    This is my first modular power supply.
    Easy to install, the cables are long, no worries about connections.
    No or extremely low noise.
    I recommend this product.

    good nutrition

    A good basic power supply to upgrade my desktop PC which I use for office work.
    If I had to do it again, I would get a modular power supply, because the wiring was a bit of a pain to get to all the hard drives and the DVD drive.

    Noisy product

    The product is very noisy. It's a shame. Is it the computer case that's making the noise?

    Perfect in every way!

    Very good power supply because of its modularity and the length of the cables which were very studied at least for my medium tower but I suppose that for the large ones or the towers of gamers that must be the same one! All the cables are present and my configuration with three hard disks and a DVD burner found without problems what to be fed and the whole to heat up beyond measure and in the silence!

    Silent power supply

    The power supply is quiet and seems to be of good quality for this price level.
    The connections to the motherboard and drives are simple.

    no problemo

    I am not an expert but everything went well. Even less noisy than the previous one. More than enough connectivity, 35°C in the boat at the quay, pc activity almost all day, , So far so good.
