Diablotek PHD Series PHD450 450W Power Supply

Comment:
Excellent power supply for a spending budget rig, offered its efficiency, maybe a high finish rig also! None that I can believe of I admit I was reluctant to get a affordable Power provide, however, due to spending budget constraints I bought it anyways. But boy did I luck up, its been chugging along just fine now for more than a month.

Cheap Does not function with Asus P5g41T-M LX mother board. I returned the first considering it was DOA, but when the second did the similar thing (didnt work) and when an additional energy supply booted the board appropriate away, I knew it was nto excellent. I assume I paid much more in return shipping and re-stocking costs than I did for this energy provide.

Comment:
I 1st purchased this thinking it would be enough power, I eventually upgraded to a 750W. But this buddy still operates and is acquiring saved incase anything at all just about every happens. It isnt modular. Quite a few energy supplies enable you to only plug the cables you need to have into them, this allows for better cable managment (GREAT FOR A SIDE WINDOW!)

I dunno. Great price range PS. Ran into a small challenge with the cable legnth. I got the rosewill challenger case, which has the power provide mounting at the bottom. The eight pin mobo cable was not long enough to reach over the video card to reach the connector on the mobo. I had to run it beneath the video card (near the back where there's a gap) to get it to reach. But it's now laying across all of my PCI slots, so I'm gonna hafta replace the PS with some that'll reach ultimately. I really feel like the cable legnth issue wouldn't have been a difficulty if I had used a situation with the energy supply mounted in the prime. Just be conscious of this. Other than the cable legnth, energy supply hasn't brought on me any other concern.

-Cost-Cables are Wraped-Cables are decently extended-Low noise-Low temp-Its black and matches my situation nice Ive heard support is poor, but ive never ever had to contact them, Knock on wood I got it when it was on sale so cost was alot far better then 35, and ive also owned the micro phd380 which held out for months and nonetheless runs fine just got a larger case and necessary a larger psu to fit

NONE Consumer Service for this corporation is terrible. No RMA approach on internet site, so I emailed them 2 occasions with no a response, so I referred to as them. Consumer service had an attitude, took my information and mentioned that it would be referred to the "RMA" department. This was additional than a month ago. Emails go unanswered. Going to call again but actually do not want to deal with attitude from their CS. It is virtually simpler to take the loss on this 1! Remain away from this company, run run run, I would attempt to construct my own power provide just before going with this corporation.Nonetheless, NEWEGG still rocks!

Comment:
i have an HP Pavillion Media Computer i have been upgrading. This power provide fits perfectly, runs quieter and cooler than the 300watt it replaced.The fan runs silent and it moved quite a bit of air. none so far

Comment:
Good tiny power supply, ran a gtx470 with it no issue. No immediately after two months its dead and i have to attempt and rma with the manufacture. no clue how extended that is going to take, but only time will tell. Presently was running an intel celreon dual core, one 500gb difficult drive 2gb ram, and a gtx470

Utilized this to replace old power supply from P4 method. Runs wonderful, quiet. Enjoy the huge fan. none

Sleek DesignMassive Ventilation FanQuiet OperationReliable ?Besides the negative evaluations I've read on right here of this PSU, this issue has none. Go with this PSU and save some dough.If you care about what other reviewers have to say, and brand is your issue, then appear elsewhere.I've read a lot of the negative critiques and most of them cite that they either had a power failure prior to their troubles or that they were running some intense hardware. I would be curious to know if they had an suitable surge protection technique in location.I would guess that besides the odd situation of some saying it exploded, the answer to the rest of these faulty PSU claims would be to unplug their systems for a minute or so and then plug it back in and try to power up. A lot of Motherboards have surge protection built in that do not reset unless you unplug for more than a couple of minutes.I'm content with the PSU and I've purchased a lot more for close friends of mine and their builds.

Looks Excellent, Low-cost Cost Died inside three days. No much more low-cost power supplies for me.

-read other thoughts -read other thoughts I utilised this for my first develop. I had o idea what I need to have to get or what was fantastic. So far I am pleased with this product. I have not had any issues at all. Every little thing appears stable, which I come across funny now due to the fact I am pretty confident that I will need a bigger PSU than this, but it operates fine!-Phenom II x6 three.2ghz-corsair H50-HIS 5770 (OC)-two x 1tb raid0- four gb ram 񢃀)-6 120mm fans ƒ leds purple)

Haven't Notice This unit considering that I installed it. I tend to only notice stuff that doesnt perform. Utilised for gamming Build, a lot of power! Not silent but, not to loud. Good For the price! If you listen,...You Can hear it.

Comment:
Worked fantastic, never had any difficulties till I moved to Germany. Minus one egg for not having automatic voltage detection. Yeah, it was my idiot mistake for not altering the voltage selector, but most everything else I have which is dual voltage (laptop, other laptop w/Xigmatec PSU, electric shaver) auto detects the voltage with no dilemma. Makes a rather spectacular puff of smoke when plugged into 220V even though switched to 110V. If my motherboard and other components are also fried, I will subtract a second egg for lack of output protection.

120mm fan & nicely sleeved cables. Has the 22 pin power plug I necessary and supports 4 sata's which is also what I required.3 yr warranty It's not a computer power & cooling ps.

Relatively quiet, stable voltages and sharp look None therefore far Not a negative power supply for the value, and doesn't make my desktop sound like a jet engine. ( as opposed to previous units *cough* sunbeam... )

Excellent deal! Arrived on time, as promised and later that day I installed it into my new make. Fit perfectly in the Cooler Master MicroATX case I was working with. Came with anything I necessary to install it. For the value, this just couldn't be beat. None.

Excellent power supply. Not an exorbitant amount of unused wire to hide. Quiet, nice searching, and with a 3 year warranty. Works excellent for carrying out an average workstation. Good cost point. None I've utilised this PSU twice in systems I've built. I wouldn't put this PSU under load of a significant graphics card. Will be my 1st option for future systems at this level of develop.

Comment:
Has just adequate connection for four sata hardware and come with a molex to sata adapter for a 5th hardware. It has a fan which keeps it cold. It has sleves on the cables which is a plus. None so far. Bought three additional for other rigs i am operating on.

Comment:
Really uncomplicated install. Cables are lengthy adequate and wrapped in sleeves. Purchased to deal with a graphics card upgrade from my old integrated rubbish. Powering the mid-level card just fine. None so far.

Comment:
Setup nicely in the case. All connected promptly and fantastic power provide for the cost. Had to appear close to notice the 4pin energy connector was attached as an 8 pin. They separated nicely so no actual issues. Applied this Diablotek as a replacement for failing Seasonic. The Diablotek works fantastic and a much better deal then the Seasonic that was nonetheless under warrantee.

Comment:
Works fantastic, gives plenty of power for my new spending budget technique. Would be nice if it had more 4-pin connectors, but not a massive deal.

1x6 or 1x8 Ƒx6Ưx2)pin for video cards, keeps your choices open. Can also run 2 video cards on it if their power requirements are low enough and you use 1 of the 1x4 peripheral to 1x6Ǟ pin converters and have two slots for the video cards. (not included)Significant Fan that makes up the complete bottom of the power supply and sucks warm air away from the CPU. It pretty much doubles as an additional CPU cooler given that it sucks the exhaust out.Runs cool...air blowing out of the back is generally cool to the touch.Leading shelf construction and design.Cables are wrapped and elegant, also a space saver. Just enough or a lot more connectors than most men and women would require, also offers enough power for most single video card solutions.Has sufficient AMP's to run each and every video card that doesn't go over the wattage specifications.Runs silent, despite the massive fan. Though it is only operating at approx 1800rpm compared to my previous 3200rpm psu. Doesn't have a temp sensor, or if it does it is not operating properly. It stays cool, and oddly enough rather it only has a fan speed sensor. Fan speed is not controllable as far as I can tell but not genuinely necessary.Not genuinely pricey but could of been a small more affordable. doesn't support 2x8 12V mobo connections, only has a 2x2. luckily my mobo was a 2x4 and didn't call for the full connector. the full 2x8 is possibly not 100% needed unless your using power hungry addons to your board. Nevertheless, every thing runs smooth without it.
