EVGA 500 B1, 80+ BRONZE 500W Power Supply, 3 Year Warranty, Includes FREE Power On Self Tester 100-B1-0500-KR

I bought this was a quick easy install into my Asus, Asus-D415MT-PC. Why there are many models of boards I like to give a reference when I can.This is heavy about twice my stock, which was 250W peak 300w. Comes with allot of connections for dual CPR, and dual Graphic cards. The cables on this are not port attached, some have plugs this is pre-wired, which is OK, but I knew that when bought it my case has easy storage for cables to tuck in and not be in the way.Pro:Simply design and install.Good cables not flimsygood rail specs.Good price.Cons :None reallyOverview, I could not find any cons, so far it installed in 5 minutes and was back up running, no noise.Left it run for some time checked all ports and working great. It has a three year warranty, this last PSU was over 5 years old in a top end machine. ( I know how could they say it was a top end with a 250w power supply that is because it was designed for business and now is converted for gaming. I need a upgraded video card and this power supply will take care of that easily for me.My old PSU didnt die, but notices some BSOD that seemed connected to power drops with kernal issues.I have been amazed over the years that many many box store and pre-made CPU's are powered by low watt or low quality PSU's.The reviews seems good and hopefully this runs well for awhile .EVGA, warranty of three years should be a comfort for many as in this day of age el3ectronics are built iffy at times.I will give an update if it changes how its performing.

This is my Second order of EVGA 600B1. This time is for a salvage with my old parts and some used parts from Ebay.My first order is for my new gaming/working build. Below are main specs.CPU: I7-6700Mobo: Gigabyte H170M-D3HVideo Card: Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 GamingMy whole build runs @320W full load, which pretty much overkilled by this PSU.Salvage Build:CPU: FX-8350Mobo: MSI 760M-P34Video Card: ASUS GTX750TI-OC-2GD5This build runs @280W full load, still overkilled by 600B.So the question becomes, why choose a PSU that overkilled both my build?1) It's QUIET. Low Db is really important for people like me when I'm working and gaming.2) It has a good reputation of QUALITY. I've been reading reviews and not really any quality issue so far been posted. I haven't use it for long but so far so good.3) It's CHEAP. Compare to a 430W White @ $29.99, a 450W Bronze @ $37.99 and a 500W White @ $37.04(All EVGA branded), it's easy to make a choice towards a 600W Bronze @ $39.99 which gives more potential on upgrading in the future.So after all, if you're getting this PSU @ $39.99, don't hesitate and place your order(I've been seen this OOS couple of times), you're not getting a better deal.For any gaming/working build under $1,000 this should be good unless you plan to upgrade in the future(crossfire/SLI, OC, etc.).

I have to be honest. This power source was selected by a friend. He and two other guys went in on this and a new EVGA GeForce GTX 960 4GB FTW GAMING ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card for me when I found out the' gaming computer' I had just by bought and was bragging about, was not even close to what I thought it was. So now you know what a noob I am at 50 years old.That said... It arrived early and was quite impressive in size and packaging. My freind talked me through the installation over the phone for this and the new video card. All of it was easier than I thought.When I started up my PC, I got to see what a REAL video card can do, look like, and work. The games I had been playing (Star Trek Online, GW2, and others looked brand new. Th graphics were sharp, fluid, clean, brilliant, and I finally know what I have been missing. The power supply was necessary for the video card I purchased.Being 52 years old and on disability, I couldn't afford this on my own, so I am grateful to my online friends for making gaming fun and enjoyable for me. Even though what I have isn't really a true'gaming rig' (I was so embarrassed) and I will never be able to afford one, this video card has probably brought me closer than I'll ever get and it's amazing. For what its worth I would recommend it to anyone as well as the power supply. The power supply looked and felt like quality equipment. All the cords were bundled and bound in webbing. It made installing an ease. I understand now, why gamers are willing to pay more for a better product. My freind tells me it's better than the card he has in his custom built rig and couldn't do better for the rig I have to work with. I've been using it for a few months now.I feel almost like I have the right to call myself a gander now. Lol.EVGA, YOU MAKE A GREAT PRODUCT.

This PSU was just the right size for my barebones build, did a little homework before buying and pretty much using on line reviews and jonnyguru as a guideline choose this brand for the price and for the excellant test results that these EVGA SuperNOVAs tested out as. They are rated 80 Bronze and test out as Silver and with all Japanese capacitors and a very good PCB they really shine when under the gun. Super Flower being a collaborater doesn't hurt one bit as they are very highly thought of in the industry. Bottom line you just can't go wrong if you're budget minded and want a very good product. They are semi-modular if that is the right word, the ATX 24pin and ATX12v 4+4 pin, plus two 6+2 VGA 12v rails are hard wired the rest are modular and it comes with a slew of extra cables and ties. You have enough cables to do anything your heart desires. Being an 850w it is right on the threshold of being capable of x-fire or sli. I only use one gfx card but may OC and this baby is just the right power and built ike a tank, the 140mm fan with dual ball bearings is a plus and I found it very quiet under load. Highly recommend.
