Small yet powerful PSU

Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I was able to confidently purchase this small yet mighty power supply for my compact computer build. The Corsair SF450 Certified Modular Supply delivers a consistent power output and the modular design allows for easy cable management. The only downside is the slightly higher price point compared to other PSUs in its wattage range. Overall, a great choice for those looking for a reliable PSU for their compact computers.

Pros
  • Efficient and reliable power delivery to support high-end PC components
Cons
  • Potential power cable length limitations for larger PC builds

The SF series is great

Platinum 600W Modular SFX at a great price. The bonus is that the cables are sleeved to an acceptable quality to allow entry. This is by no means a store-bought custom braided cable, and the cable routing will bother anyone trying to insert cable combs. The included branded Velcro is a nice touch. As indicated in the listing, the fan is in silent mode and only turns on above a certain load. In my case, that's a bit annoying, because even 30% will be "still" for me and still moving air. I…

Pros
  • Zero speed fan mode: Virtually silent at low to medium loads
Cons
  • A bit shabby

Exceptional Quality

I was excited to hear that Seasonic released SFX power supplies for SFFPC. But after reading the early reviews from several reputable reviewers, I was disappointed that Seasonic seemed to have rushed to market their SFX products. I was particularly struck by the relatively poor build quality inside the power supply, which I may be exaggerating a bit. How carefully, obsessively and compulsively a typical factory worker spends time assembling a typical device, how he lavishes love on the innards…

Pros
  • 100% Japanese Electrolytic Capacitors 105: High-quality internal components ensure stable power supply and long-term reliability
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
