CiTBuilder 500W Power Supply, Non Modular, PPFC, 70% Efficiency, 12cm Cooling Fan, An Excellent Entry Level Power Supply, No Power Cable Included | Black

The PSU in my computer which I built 4 years ago decided to go pop. It's still a decent computer, and I want to get another 1 to 2 years of life out of it, and so far this PSU is doing the job.At this price, it does not come with a PCI-E connector for video cards. You can purchase a separate SATA to PCI-E connector, like I did. I certainly *would not* recommend this if you are building a brand new system - do not skimp on PSU when you're running high-end equipment. But in my case, with an older system, I am happy with this.

A good replacement part. Easy to fit and a quiet fan

I liked it as it is very affordable, but it is slightly loud. I don’t think it is that bad of a problem though. It is easy to install, but does not have a 6 pin pc-ie adapter so consider that before buying.

Horrible psu doesn’t have a gpu connector came with 3 not 4 mounting screws. DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE A DECENT PC.

Having been in the PC build/repair business many years this unit is ideal for replacing those in budget systems. Why anyone would complain about not having a connector for a graphics card is beyond me. Who in their right mind would want to use this in a gaming system? The fan is surprisingly quiet. Been using CIT PSUs for years and alway been impressed.

Over all I find this a great bit of kit and my son is loving the upgrade to his first gaming pc.The only gripe that I have with this power supply is that it did not come with a wire for graphics cards, which some people may be left frustrated. In this case I was luck and had a sata (power) to 6 pin graphics card adapter.

Creates a little vibrating rumble of the PC thin metal casing but overall way quieter than the old defunct power supply and practically inaudible compared to my small 250w Dimplex blower heater.If it keeps going it will be a worthy 5 star budget (£21) buy. Seems perfectly adequate happy to report.

Came in a good box and well padded. Looks like nice quality and has all the connections a standard PC needs. Gamers may well feel their demands will be too much for it but we mortals should find it plenty good enough and at a great price.
