It worked for eight years without any complaints. I was pulling a 95 Watt old Athlone, and I saw that it was also consuming 230 Watts. Moreover, Athlone is overclocked from 3 to 3.5 GHz. Now he has retired to build on a Ryzen Z 3200G; he will live without discrete data for another 10 years. Reliable, didn't turn off for weeks. Noisy under load, it actually produces no more than 400 watts. |
Whoever says what, but the power supply for a PC plays a crucial role, and the GPA 500S8 is a good, reliable comrade. With such parameters, it would be possible to take a cheaper PSU, but believe me, when you use a PC with an SSD and this unit, you will no longer take dubious models, since the Chieftec brand itself is very reliable. And at the expense of cable lengths, as it turned out, it is necessary to clarify and check in advance so that everything fits. It works quietly, does not squeak, does not stink from it. The cables turned out to be unexpectedly short, especially for powering the processor: the cable goes into a stretch, hooking on the CPU cooling system (the space in the case for the PSU is allotted at the bottom, and the CPU on the motherboard on top)  Artem A.: use Chieftec GPA-500S8 month or more i recommend it should buy |
Decent power supply, but the drawbacks can lead to taut wires. Quiet, efficient, sold for a reasonable price. Powerful enough, suitable for a well-equipped system with an Intel Core i5 and a solid graphics card. Withstands occasional power flickers, which are common in our area. Not modular and short wires. You can still live with the first, but the second might cause problems. use Chieftec iARENA GPA month or more |
