Apevia ATX-GX650W Galaxy 650W 80+ Gold Certified Active PFC ATX Semi-Modular Quiet Gaming Power Supply

Power Supply Review: Performance, Features, and Value This power supply distinguishes itself with exceptionally low noise levels, maintaining quiet operation even under significant demand. Its aesthetic is that of a typical power supply unit, blending seamlessly into most system builds. Key Features and Performance A significant value proposition of this unit is the inclusion of extra modular cables, which facilitates connections for various components. This expansive cabling has proven highly beneficial for cable management, simplifying the setup process considerably. The power supply has demonstrated reliable functionality under very heavy loads, indicating robust and consistent performance. Overall Assessment Given its quiet operation, generous cable accessories, and strong performance under demanding conditions, this power supply offers excellent value.

Fit my build perfectly with tons of extra power to spare. Exactly what you’d expect in connectivity, works with everything I’ve thrown at it, and is suuuuuper quiet

This was not my initial choice for a new build, but when my order for another brand was not going to be available until a later date, switched to this brand. I am glad I did. Like it's hybrid wired / modular design, so you don't have excess cable in case you don't need. The cables are nicely wrapped, and are well suited to nice cable management. It's fan runs quietly, and powers my new build perfectly. Even comes with nice Thumb Screws for attaching to case. I know that is a small thing, but I appreciate the nice Thumb Screws over regular screws. It has the Gold + standard, and had a nice price for the features. Am very happy with purchase, and would recommend,

Buen producto

I think a lot of people are wary of Apevia because they're considered something of a "no-name" nowadays; most have forgotten that Apevia has been a big name since 2000. Although they used to be primarily known for their PC cases, they started making power supplies in 2005 so they've got some experience under their belts. Honestly for the low price this PSU costs, it works great and is aesthetically pleasing. There are really only 2 minor things that should be noted. The first is the flat molded cables; pretty much every single PSU manufacturer makes cables like this now, so it's not exactly a bad point for just this PSU, but man these things drive me nuts. Always super stiff and difficult to tuck away for neat cable management due to how wide and flat they are. I wish we could get back to the old days of power supplies where every wire was seperate and multicolored, because they were much easier to cable manage. The second point is the noise level of the fan, which a few people have said in their reviews is incredibly loud, while others say it is not loud at all. The true answer is really both. At maximum speed, the fan in the PSU is very loud and whiny, but at anything below maximum speed, the fan is perfectly silent. Realistically there are only 2 times when the PSU fan will hit maximum speed; running torture tests like GPU or CPU benchmarks, and for exactly 1 second when you first power on your computer. Most motherboards will ramp all connected fans to maximum speed for 1 second upon startup as a hardware test to check all fans are working, and then immediately engages PWM or voltage control, depending on 3 or 4 pin headers. This is perfectly tolerable unless you are just really really picky, in which case there are plenty of PSUs that cost 2-3 times as much for you that will not have the 1 second of fan sound. Torture tests also hardly reflect real time performace and 99% of people will never push their hardware far enough to require the PSU to need that much cooling.

Amazing product. I didn’t it think it would do this good. It had lasted, been quiet, and hasn’t had a single problem.

after a year, still stable

Very impressed for the price! Running this with power efficient components is definitely the ideal use case. I am powering a build that is using the Ryzen 5 5500 and the RX 5700 XT, with zero issues. I would advise against pushing these units to their rated capacity out of pure caution. I don't have fancy testing equipment to see how pure the delivery but hardware monitor is showing very steady voltage delivery to both my GPU and CPU. My full system draw is about 560 watts and this thing runs cool and quite- very very pleased. Cables that come with the unit are adequate and the pigtail PCIE is keeping by 5700 XT fed just fine, which I run with a conservative undervolt which allows full clock speed while pulling 185 watts. Obviously this is not a PSU for high end systems ( don't be silly ). However, for a budget build utilizing power efficient gear your going to be just fine!
