Review on πŸ’Ž SilverStone Tek 550W 80 Plus Gold Power Supply: Silent Operation, Sleek Design, and Flat Black Cables SST-ET550-G by Alan Pfeiffer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Terrible value! in Computers & Accessories

This is a 550W 80 Plus Gold power supply with Black wires from Silverstone that actually costs no more than $80 on the market. At the time of writing it cost $68 and exceptionally worked without any issues. I also have an overclocked AMD Ryzen 5 3600 + GTX 1660 SUPER at 4.3GHz. Handles all overclocks with ease and the fan seems pretty quiet under load. I was very hesitant to buy it as I couldn't find any proper reviews of this Silverstone PSU on JohnnyGuru, YouTube with respectable channels like Gamers Nexus or anywhere else. So I took the risk and so far it's paying off. The only thing I don't like is the 3-year warranty, which should be at least 5 years for this price range and certification. Besides, it's a great buy and it even comes with standard protections like over-current protection, over-current protection, over-voltage protection, short-circuit protection, and over-temperature protection. I will update this review if it breaks but rightly so this is now a 5 star Silverstone product and I recommend it for its high quality at a shocking price.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Available in Black only
