The noise levels generated by these PSUs are very favourable. Starting from just 19.5 dB(A) and reaching a maximum of only 24 dB(A), meaning that this power supplies remains very quiet even when under high load.

This 480W PSU is ideal for mid range systems and is supplied with one 6-pin PCI-E connector. The PSU also features Molex plug easy-grip connectors, allowing the user to remove any plug with little hassle. See the specification table below for a full list of available connectors.

Blissfully quiet, and more SATA connectors than the description says...

Reviewed by Steve. Review Posted 17/10/2009

The description stresses the quietness of this PSU and it is very quiet. If your current PSU sounds like a jet engine, it's worth buying this just for extra peace and quiet. The connectors are slightly different from those described... it actually has 4 SATA power connectors (not 2), although only 2 traditional 4-pin HDD power connectors (not 4). This is a better ratio for modern PCs, but beware if you're replacing a PSU in an old PC with more than 2 IDE drives. In fact, even if your (IDE) DVD drive is physically separate from your (IDE) HDD, you're going to struggle, as the two 4-pin connectors are on the same cable. Also, it came with an EU plug on the mains lead, not a UK one. Overall, I'm very happy with its performance, and the difference in specs from the description actually worked out better for me personally. If I'd been upgrading an old PC needing more than 2 traditional 4-pin connectors, I'd have been more than a bit annoyed at the errors in the description.

Replaced an Alienware failed PSU with this

Reviewed by Matt. Review Posted 12/03/2009

Absolutely perfect in every way. Easy fit, well packaged, good price. Went in like a dream, nice length of cables for a large case with good solid connectors.

Felt like a more expensive PSU thats for sure.

Highly recommended at this stage - hope it lasts!
