Review on πŸ”Œ Apevia ATX-SP700 Spirit ATX Power Supply with 120mm Fan, Auto-Thermal Control, 115/230V Switch, Comprehensive Protection by Chad Boho

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bad luck or the product has a short lifespan.

My computer's power supply (known as a Supernova) eventually died and I replaced it with one of these. This went on for some time. Maybe a month and at most some sort of replacement before the fan started rattling so it sounded like a diesel car idling. Shortly thereafter, the power supply to the PC began to be randomly cut off. (No shutdown sequence. Literally "on" to "off".) As far as I know the power supply must have been assembled with loose components (maybe more) since a light tap on the power supply was enough to trigger the power interruption nor necessary to cause a problem. I hope I'm just unlucky and this is an abnormal departure from the norm of good work.

Pros
  • Beautiful
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
