ARESGAME AGV Series 500W Power Supply, 80 Plus Bronze Certified, Non Modular Power Supply, 5 Year Warranty

Only had to modify one set of connectors to fit my old tower PC, working like a charm. PC up and still kicking, old doesn’t mean it’s can’t be fixed!

PSU was functional. Strong rubber smell. The fan is too noisy for me at 4 feet distance. Fan profile seems agressive and half of the fan opening is blocked by a piece of molded plastic on the inside - it’s probably one of the reasons for the noise. I guess i got what i paid for, since this is one of the cheapest PSU; build quality goes with the price.

I put this in a computer with a 2070 super, msi b550 gaming, ryzen 5 5600, 32gb ram system for my daughter. It is the 3rd aresgame PSU I have used. These things get hours of play time and I have never had one issue, but that also comes for regular cleaning with just air even. Take care of your things and they will last.Speaking of check the oil life on your car while you are at it.You are welcome.

If you need a no-frills, affordable PSU for a build that doesn’t require excessive power, this is a great choice. However, if you’re running a higher-end GPU or need modular cables, you may want to look for a higher-wattage or modular option.

This power supply has moved to 3 different pc's. It's still running strong on a pc dedicated to a 3d printer in a shop. It will not work for newer graphic cards but it runs a gtx1650 fine. I gave it 4 stars because of its endurance for long hours of running. There is always 1 cable that you wished was 4 inches longer if you want to mess with cable management. The price is great for what you get.

Cables should have colors to identify polarity.

***Update*** The original system has been rebuilt a couple times, now it has a 3060 12gb gpu in it, still crankin along. I've purchased several more of these psu's and they just perform. I just built another core i3 12100F with a 3050 6gb gpu and the psu barely gets warm. I've purchased 4 in total from this brand now. Till I can find a reason to spend more for the same thing, I'm gonna be buying these.Solid psu for systems that don't need a ton of power. I just built a core i3 12100F with a 1060ti 6g, 512gb nvme, couple case fans, this is just a bench system. It "can" do some 1080p gaming but that's not it's job. I dropped Redhat 8 on a 256gb nvme that I will swap back and forth as I need the OS. I ran stress-ng for 3hrs at full tilt boogey and this little box just rocked it. I wanted to test everything, make sure the motherboard was going to hold up, I got the cpu second hand, and also the gpu. I read a number of other reviewers claim scary smells coming from their psu's so I hoped to hammer this thing and see if I could stress it beyond it's capabilities. I didn't have any complaints from any of this hardware. The psu performed perfectly. I can't complain one bit, 80+ Bronze? less than $40? I mean, what's not to love? If you right-size your psu for your system you should be golden. My system according to pcpartspicker should draw about 288w. That makes this psu the perfect sweet spot. I liked it so much that I purchased the bigger brother the 850w fully modular version and I'm currently stress testing that system and its not even breaking a sweat. I'm very pleased with this psu. I might have found my new favorite psu brand.

It’s decent

High quality, looks great, cost effective, works great!!! Highly recommend For a budget build

El producto llegó rápido y "alparecer en perfectas condiciones". Sin embargo, la fuente de alimentación presenta un potente olor a goma quemada, espero que sea el olor natural debido a que está nueva. Además, viendo dentro de la fuente (no la he desarmado como aclaración, simplemente por su arquitectura, está permite ver sus componentes dentro), descubrí que un componente parece estar torcido en comparación con los otros que son iguales. En fin, ahora mismo no poseo energía eléctrica por lo que esperaré para probarla; ya la tengo montada en la PC.

I just bought 3 750w and all of 3 blow !!!Was mining with them at 24/7 power draw of 550 but hey they blow after 1 week.

This power supply replaced a 9 year old device in a tower PC. It is far more efficient than the old one and installed cleanly. It is also significantly quieter, and provided good value for the money. It had all the appropriate connectors and all were marked. I especially liked the small "tester" block that allowed me to "see if the fan runs" before dismantling the PC.

fonctionne bien
