CiT Builder 500W Power Supply, Non Modular, PPFC, 70% Efficiency, 12cm Cooling Fan, An Excellent Entry Level Power Supply, No Power Cable Included | Black

I've an old WinXP machine in my workshop which I need for compatibility with many old devices. It went bang and nothing would start. This is a basic PSU that took mins to install with all the connections required. Booted first time no issues! Arrived next day so very impressed!

Nice and quiet power supply. My PC has 3 drives ,but doesn't have a separate graphics card ( onboard graphics ) and is perfect for that, a few months in and all is great. The connection leads are of sensible length. Id recommend this for a normal home/ office PC without hesitation, however if you have a gaming PC, with a high spec power hungry graphics card, it's probably not for you.

Ok so honestly I thought this would be a bomb for £17 but actually it works silently hasn’t blown up or died. Highly recommend although the lack of a 8 pin gpu connector is disappointing.

Bought this PSU for a budget build for my daughter who loves playing roblox. The pc only gets used at the weekends so roughly 10 days per month.... The PSU has started making some very loud "groaning" noises, as if it has dry bearings in the fan.... I have had this PSU 4 months and when I checked, this item only has a 30 day returns period. I can NOT recommend this PSU, spend an extra £5/£10 and avoid disappointment. Pc spec i7 4770 16gb corsair ram (2×8) Gtx 1060 250gb ssd Windows 10 More than capable of running roblox and nowhere near pulling too much power from the PSU. (Cpu and Gpu combined draw just over 200w under load) 1 star because even though it's loud and irritating, it's still working. I hope it lasts until the new one arrives and doesn't burn my house down lol.

The PSU in my computer which I built 4 years ago decided to go pop. It's still a decent computer, and I want to get another 1 to 2 years of life out of it, and so far this PSU is doing the job. At this price, it does not come with a PCI-E connector for video cards. You can purchase a separate SATA to PCI-E connector, like I did. I certainly *would not* recommend this if you are building a brand new system - do not skimp on PSU when you're running high-end equipment. But in my case, with an older system, I am happy with this.

If you don't require power for a graphics card then this CiT Builder power supply should suffice. It is a generic shape design for ATX case with input power switch and internal fan. It is reasonably priced and is working well for me. My system has an MSI mb with Intel 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400F and I don't play games. The fan is not completely silent, noise is about the same as all the others I have used. So overall, it is working ok, but only time will tell if it is truly a a decent product.

Over all I find this a great bit of kit and my son is loving the upgrade to his first gaming pc. The only gripe that I have with this power supply is that it did not come with a wire for graphics cards, which some people may be left frustrated. In this case I was luck and had a sata (power) to 6 pin graphics card adapter.

I like these psu for regular computers. Silent and works smooth
