Title: Awesome value in the 600w or 850w
Review: have used these in a back up gaming pc build for my son and daughter and they are fantastic value In a 600w units!!!I also a 850 gold for my RC battery charger. My charger when I'm charging my 2-3s 5000mah packs in parallel 6 batteries per channel on both channels so 12x 3s 5000 mah lipo packs I'm charinging at 70 amps. My Icharger 406 duo is capable of 40 amps per channel and 70 amps if running both channels. So it's pushing out 840watts during the charge cycles and it handles it with no issues what so ever. No thermal issues when demanding 840 watts from it contentious and voltage stays locked in.The 850w gold I've had for seems about 2 years now and it's used to charge pretty much every single day. Some times it's 12x 5000mah packs parallel charged one set after the next when my kids and I are flying and or driving rc cars, boats, planes.. my icharger 406 duo and this power supply do very well together for rapid charging of the 2-3 cell lipo packs from 2200mah to 5000mah. For me being as close to the wattage as I am, pulling 840 constant @70 amps out of a 850w unit I fully expected to have some thermal issues and figured ide just charge at 60amps if it's having trouble delivering the 70a constant. But shockingly it handles 840w constant and has for two years or more without issues. Now I will say when the charger is in constant current part of the charging and it's putting out 70 amps of charge current the unit will get pretty dang warm but nothing to serious, at room temperature of 72F during a 70 Amp charge on 5000mah packs to where it's sustaining 840 watts of demand it will get up to maybe 110F but with a external fan blowing on it the temps will stay in the 95-100F range.For the 50 bucks I paid for the 850 gold it's been a mega good value for my needs. Reliable, quiet, smooth current delivery, very consistent voltage under high load... it's just been a dang good power supply as have both the 600w units in the back up gaming PC builds for my son and daughter.I never would have thought that the 850 watt gold would have been able to sustain 12v/70amp demand consistently as it's to close to its max wattage, I totally expected that I would have to back the current down to 60a so that would be around 720 watts for it to not have thermal issues with the power demands. It has done it for 2 years or more now and never skips a beat!If you have a computer build that needs a 850w supply I would absolutely say the 850w gold would do you a fantastic and reliable job! Computers put no where near the constant load on a unit as a high power lipo battery charger and it handles it without issue so I have no doubt it would do the same in a high demand PC build.I'm sure there are better built units out there, I'm sure there are units that deliver slightly cleaner power but at the price I don't think any other unit comes close to these. Buy one and you won't regret it, they are rock solid values and high performance units.

Title: Very Quiet, works well.
Review: This is a pretty cool ATX supply because the fan speed is controlled by temperature. The fans of older ATX power supplies ran at full speed all the time, and were noisey. Molded wire harnesses are used throughout, so all wires are black. If you are an experimenter like I am, you have to meter a plug to know which pins are which voltages because all wires are black. Read the directions first, because it's easy to plug a six-pin plug into the four-pin socket. If you need a four-pin CPU plug, you pull apart an 8-pin plug and have two 4-pin plugs for CPUs. The MB plug is extra wide and part of it hangs over the socket. It has no cable for the flex drive, but molex to flex drive adapter cables are sold on Amazon. It's not a straight forward swap, but give it some thought, read directions, and you will end up with a nice quiet running PC. My old PSU had a rating of 430 watts, this new one is 600 watts. Maybe that's why it runs so cool.

Title: Works
Review: Works to keep my old i7 4790k unit running since I’ve upgraded to a ryzen build and reused my high end Corsair PSU in it. It’s not silent with psu and the case fans but it’s very quiet. No noticeable coil whine.Biggest gripes are it’s not modular, it’s been a while since I had a none modular but I didn’t want to pay 20-30 extra for that alone when I almost never reopen cases once they are stable. And the biggest gripe I have is the cpu power lead is too short to cable manage. I couldn’t run it behind my board, I had to run it directly up to cpu socket plug which is top left of MB. Case mounts PSU on bottom so it barely reached even then. I’m not sure it would work with any pcie gpu in the way. It needed another foot on that cable at least.Seems well enough made. Has PCIE power if I decide to put a graphics card back in the computer, assuming I can get cpu lead to work.

Review: This power supply runs my PC amazingly, and I had zero problems installing it. I really like the cables they’re not too bad the fan is really quiet and I really recommend it for the price. My PC never had issues with power and supplying the power. My PC needs I really recommend for beginner PCs and for first builders.
