I am one hundred percent satisfied with the purchase, I recommend this product to everyone.

RGB backlight will be useful for those who have the top location of the power supply food processor 4+4 video power supply 2 separate wires, each with TWO 6 + 2 pins

Pros
  • 1)price 2) 5 years warranty 3) rgb backlight 4) long cables 5) the presence of all necessary types of connection
Cons
  • the braid of wires is not completely finished, wires are visible near the chips

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

If there were modular wires (inserted into connectors in a power supply unit), as in my old TR2 600W Thermaltake, there would be no price for the power supply. And so only ten points out of ten :))

Pros
  • - power 700 W (at least collect a PC for 3090) -high efficiency (80+) -decent elemental base (even by weight it is felt, because it is heavy) - braided wires. Good quality and very good length. -5 years manufacturer's warranty (and in 2022 it was 10 years) - design, lighting. Although who needs it in the power supply, then? But I like the green one :) -price / quality (bought for 4899). - quiet. Really quiet, not audible at all - both in idle and under load (at least on 12400 and gtx 1060 6b). The noise level is about the same as from a fan 2 meters away on a hot summer day.
Cons
  • There are no disadvantages. Except perhaps for a meager configuration - two wires and that's it, no handbag for you, no heaps of adapters and bolts, as in my old one. But these are nit-picking - I'm sure more expensive solutions have it all. Is there?

I would definitely recommend the purchase, I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

Great power supply for my system. I have: Ryzen 7-2700, RTX 2060, two HDDs, SSD, 6 fans per case. It pulls everything with a large margin, does not make noise 40-50 dB. I am very pleased with the purchase. I recommend!

Pros
  • Powerful, beautiful RGB backlight controlled by a button.
Cons
  • Well, if only, a slightly noticeable crackling of the fan, under heavy load.

The best thing I've ever used, a great item for everyone!

I bought a ready-made assembly on Winard 500w and got scared by the noise level. This PSU was bought on a whim. Plus needed a backlight. Satisfied, works great, style creates

Pros
  • 1) Quiet 2) Backlight 3) A huge number of cables
Cons
  • Very basic lighting. Literally several modes of constant glow in one color Didn't find

What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

At first I wanted to exchange the power supply for 80 PLUS, but then changed my mind - in general, the power supply suits me so far, there are no complaints in the work, and then we'll see how it will work.

Pros
  • Basically, I liked the power supply. Works quietly, nice lighting.
Cons
  • 80 PLUS 230V EU - I would like an honest 80 PLUS.

Good value for money, I recommend.

I took to replace the already ancient thermaltake toughpower 600w, so the assessment is relative to it. the backlight is not that bright and necessary, there is, well, okay Different pros: price (3909r), manufacturer (I advise everyone), quiet, 5 year warranty Has cons: for powering the video card 1 cable, the cables are thin, the plugs are fixed rather weakly, there is no vibration-damping gasket in the kit (the thing costs 2, but its presence is a very nice plus), there is no molex-> psi…

The product is really good, I'm glad I bought it.

In general, this is a good, powerful and inexpensive power supply, however, I would recommend throwing a thousand other and buying a power supply unit for a more solid one, if of course there is an opportunity. Its pros: Powerful Quiet enough Nice backlight There is a certificate 80+ Works stably for 1.5 years without complaints Has some cons: The main problem with this PSU is the cable 1. They are rigid, making cable management difficult 2. The 4+4pin cable is short, I cursed all the gods when

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

The PSU is good, then the story is about solving problems with noise, for installing the PSU from below. I put this device in a new system 12700F / zalman cnps10x / Asus B660 / 32G performa and ATX Aerocool Cylon case (PSU from below). After the showdown with the processor and turning off the cores, the speed became decent, but all the fans began to sing like server ones, from heating. The power supply whistled in idle time, but against the background of noise it is not audible. But in the…

Pros
  • Outwardly pleasing design Relatively quiet (more in the comment) Braided cables Good mesh => good airflow switchable backlight
Cons
  • The cables are harsh (rather a nitpick, the current is more than copper too) Connectors are cheap (but for such a price)

A good product, but having its own defects.

For the money, a very good power supply, but there is one very obvious flaw - when you turn on the computer for the first 5-7 minutes, the not very pleasant sound of the cooler is clearly audible. As if the petals are slightly catching on something (I don’t know how else to explain). Then the noise disappears and later rarely, but it happens that this annoying sound returns again for a while. In general, everything suits, except for the noise level. At the moment, the stock cooler from the…

Pros
  • 1. Price for "700" watt 2. Backlight (although it can be attributed to the pluses only if the case has a window, otherwise it is doubtful) 3. There are no questions about the length of the wires and their braid
Cons
  • 1. The box says "Silent", i. E. The idea is that noise should be kept to a minimum. But it is not so. More details in the comments.

Not the best quality, but generally not bad.

If you need a PSU for a system up to 400 watts with backlight, so that it looks beautiful, you can take it. Analogues with illumination in this budget - especially you will not find. But. It is better to add and take something decent watts for 500 honest and even with detachable cables. It will not be as beautiful, but much more practical. One can even find be Quiet!

Pros
  • 1) Price 2) RGB backlight 3) Workmanship 4) Long warranty period 5) Braided cables
Cons
  • 1) INCREDIBLE DOWNLOADS The 12 volt line drops to ~ 11.9 already at consumption in the region of 120-150 watts. At peak consumption of my system (Ryzen 2700 + GTX1070) around 350W, it drops to 11.7-11.75. 2) Temperature regime It heats up enough to affect the temperature of the system if you put it as a fan inside the system unit. After turning the PSU with the fan down, all temperatures in idle decreased by 2-3 degrees, and under load - by all 4. 3) A set of cables. Sata - 6 pieces, molexes - 4, but 8 pin connectors - generally only two. 4) No external control for backlight. Plugging in an external control via a 4-pin connector is much easier than fencing the built-in control system. Why they didn't is unclear.

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

I bought it at a discount of 1k, I took it with a calculation of 50 watts, now I will take it with a margin of 100 watts, there is a drawdown in the 12 volt line up to 11.7 volts. rgb is beautiful, but with a bottom position it is almost useless, unless the legs of the PC are high, it would be better if the tape was mounted along the contour. I recommend for assemblies in the calculation of 600 watts.

Pros
  • A bunch of protections for short circuit, power, etc. braided cords, rgb. The length of the cords, in particular for the processor.
Cons
  • There is a drawdown, although not significant, on the 12 volt line

It can't be worse! A waste of money.

I bought it, plugged it into a system with an AMD FX-8350 and ATI HD 7950. The system hung and turned off. Turned off the backlight - it worked fine. It's been 4 months. I bought a new system with a Ryzen 9 5900X, everything is new except for the video card and power supply. At the slightest load on the video card, the computer is cut off. I installed another power supply (not Thermaltake Smart RGB 700W), but also at 700W - the computer works like a clock, even in stress tests. Maybe, of…

Pros
  • Turns on
Cons
  • Not even close to the claimed power

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

It may be too early to draw conclusions after a week of operation, but so far the i5-11400f and RTX 2060 are calmly pulling, it is not noisy under loads. Regarding the disadvantage with RGB, this is not critical, I read that power supplies are usually designed to be installed with the cooler down, so that: 1. do not take air from the video card; 2. If you suddenly spill something on the system unit, the liquid will not get into the power supply unit and you will not make a "salute" in the…

Pros
  • Quiet, Powerful, RGB
Cons
  • The disadvantage for those who plan to install it with the cooler down (like me), there is no sense from RGB, the backlight is not visible from the word at all

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Works without sound and without noise for more than a year. In fact, the processor's cooler blocks its noise. Remember the 5 year warranty. Don't lose your checks. Got pros: Bought at the end of autumn 2022 Worked for several months with GTX 980ti and i5 2500K overclocked to 4.2 GHz Since February 2022, it has been working with Huanan v2.49, the video is the same. November 2022 works without problems to this day on the same Huanan with 980ti without overclocking and Xeon E5 1650 v2 processor…
