A fantastic power supply with a lot of worth and characteristics for the price. I'm replacing a "smoker" with it and, so far, it appears like a actually fantastic choice.

Cabling is a good length, sufficient molex and sata for what i had to do, I'm surely not employing all the connections, but if i have to upgrade I know i can take this PSU with me. Voltages being shown in BIOS are creating me a tiny nervous with the reliability of this unit. No troubles as of yet, but I would count on a tighter tolerance.Ʊ.3 reads three.28, thats fine.Ƴ reads five.18, makes me a small worried..ი reads 12.43, I'm hoping that the BIOS readings are just inaccurate.. I haven't tested the actual voltages with a multimeter, and I don't intend to. Everything has been running fine, but if I have any difficulties with instability, this is the very first element I'm seeking at.

Sturdy power provide and its only a dual rail. Beautiful colour scheme. Exclusive exterior, quite substantially a amazing lookin enclosure. Apevia fanguard for the 120mm fan and mesh behind it looks sharp. Adjustable fan speed is excellent for these to uptight about the noise in there case. Super silent on low speed, and not even that loud on higher. The cable wrap is UV but appears nice as is, if you dont have a UV light, I do but dont use it. But I did test it on it and yah its nice and vibrant and a deep colour. Not like the fruity teal lookin UV cables some other manufactures place on. The blue glow from the fans is awesome, super clean and vibrant, and it appears excellent. Definately reccomend to any individual. I got this when it was แ.99 with Free of charge Shipping. Had a little problem mounting the PSU in 2 cases, one particular a Chieftec Dragon (The original old school one particular that weighs a ton but is radiculously spacious) and a Ultra Mid Tower. Enjoy ultra cases btw. The PSU doesnt actually line up appropriate, I did get all four thumbscrews in that it came with immediately after workin em one at a time only a small threaded on each and every. Lotta persons mentioned flip it more than? Yah no.. Has a radiculous quantity of peripheral plugs, virtually to a lot of. Was a little hesitent on obtaining this as its my 1st time using Apevia brand psu or Apevia item period. I study about half the reviews to see who had what troubles with what. Some peoples arrived dead, so had been underpowered, and so forth.. Ive been incredibly blessed to not have one factor come in dead from newegg, total kudos to them.

Going on 2 years old and nevertheless no challenges at all. Offers continuous energy. Fans are still going robust. No broken connectors. None at all. What a wonderful PSU. So far, I've gotten virtually 2 complete years of use out of this PSU. I use my computer daily for gaming, surfing, e-mail, and so on.No troubles at all. I'm operating a good 50% overclock on my E7200 and a 30% overclock on my 8800GT along with a bunch of fans, leds and cold cathodes - no problems with having enough energy.Good Job Apevia!

- Hasn't died (year + 3 months in) - Strong power - Pretty stylish fan for the gamer/PC enthusiast - Rather loud - Not exactly something you would want to place in a household member's Pc that doesn't seriously care about technologies. - SATA power connectors are really flimsy and had concerns staying in. Was shocked by this

Comment:
Looks Excellent. Powers up and runs my system superbly. Not substantially of a con for me, but it's a bit on the Heavy side.

Comment:
Runs good, quiet, and plenty of wattage for what i will need. ONLY Issue - MOBO energy pin ྸ pin) doesn't keep in simply, if something bumps against it just a small also tough (especially when undertaking maintenance) it falls out.

Comment:
Nice design, love the three fans. I have not had any issues so far. It from time to time makes a humming noise.You really should invest in a larger case if you currently don't have a single, the cables are bit substantially to hide. it from time to time tends to make a humming noise.

Looks incredible, blue lights 3 fans, shiny exhaust grill, a lot of energy, long cords, a lot of connectors, fan speed adjuster, thumbscrews. It produced me giddy. Will need to tie up cords? Purchase this for something you build! I will. ɇ

Comment:
A lot of connections, dependable, fantastic searching, adjustable fan speed. Somewhat large, but it fits. I've had mine for practically 3 years, it has so several connectors that I have never ever had to adapt power fittings for any new hardware upgrades. Yea, I read some negative critiques, but mine has been rock strong.

Comment:
Looked cool, wires have been contained nicely, blue light was desirable with my case. It died! 12 days just before the 1 year warranty expiration, it died on me entirely randomly. Also the company is so small they only have 1 guy in the RMA division... I recommend not acquiring from this location as its such a modest organization, but little guys need loving also so your get in touch with ^_^

The 2 week downtime sucks inbetween replacements. i recommend have a backup laying about someplace

Comment:
its massive, shiny and lights up like an alien spacecraft :P.the fan controller operates wonderfully. Even so, i have left it on full blast because i got it.. very quiet running and keeps cool.. no overheating however, the cables are well shielded and take copius amounts of bending and flexing. the plugs have an exceptional grip design, creating plugging and unplugging a snap.. none, so far..

Looks great in my NZXT Lexa caseAdjustable fan speedGot it for 79.99 before the rebate so soon after all is mentioned and accomplished i paid 50 for this sucker This thing is SLI ready but not for higher end cards.Fan is LOUD when on total speed, lucky it's adjustable I just installed it and I'm not confident it it's the PSU or my ability to install it but i heard flickering sounds (almost like electricity) and the subsequent issue i know is my technique shuts off and wouldn't come back on again for about a minute.

Comment:
plenty of hi good quality connectors, adjustable fan speed, and a fairly blue light. it's big, can be loud on total speed fan, not to poor although.huge dust bunnies I bought it for a 7600 SLI configuration, (yeah, that long ago)it worked fine. I'm employing it these days in a config for a Q6600, GTX260, 2 HDs on a MSI P6N SLI Platinum, and it's smooth.

Comment:
This P/S has far more than sufficient to deal with nearly each board, vid and add-ons out in the industry today.3 fans, blue lights and adjustable fan speed.. what far more ya want... It is a little loud when the fan is on complete speed... other than that nothing

Comment:
Superb voltage and mesh sleeving on the cables with ample amps! Cords are very good length to reach all around my XaserIII situation with no a issue. The safety shut-offs are also good. Great for significant cases, putting this unit into smaller situation may possibly prove to be a challenge simply because of bulk and length of cables. I owned one of their units back when they had been Aspire, similar model, 100 much less watts. I was satisfied with it till the day it kuhput'd so I bought yet another one.X2 4200+ Overclocked2GB DDR400X1900XTThree 7200RPM drivesTwo Optical DrivesFloppy drive, sound card, numerous mods.

It looks cool. It was ๟.99 when I bought it. It did not last a year. The manufacture is really unfair about their faults. In my mind a power supply that does not final at least 1 year is junk. If you purchase anything from this manufacture all i got to say is very good luck. they will take everything they can get from you and i imply something.

Initially are the looks, this energy provide looks Great! Second is the energy, plenty of power. Third, it quiet ever with the 3 fans on high it is quiet. none so far. If you need a power supply, look at Apevia.

Comment:
incredibly functional energy provide, no issues have been encountered. The variable speed fan is a good addition. there are only four SATA power connections. Positive you can convert the other individuals to SATA, but for a modern day power supply this is a tad light on these connectors. aside from wishing there were far more SATA connectors, this is a fantastic energy provide and a very good worth for the income. Also, the mail in rebate was processed and I received the check Quite quickly!

Comment:
Looks sharp, has sufficient fans to remain cool, sufficient cable to power just about any computer system setup you could picture, all the cables are already shrouded Cables can be a nightmare to route and maintain organized in a smaller situation, won't run a higher-finish SLI setup I've had good luck with this power supply. It ought to operate for a rig that's not operating a hardcore video card setup but still needs a lot of juice.
