Pros

  • Good voltage regulation

Cons

  • Can’t deliver anything with the ripple in spec (−10)
  • Low quality capacitors
  • Low quality fan
  • Two-transistor 5vsb
  • Inadequate input filtering
  • Soldering could be better
  • Failed under 320W Load
  • Inefficient
  • Ugly

Final comments: This would have to be one of the worst power supplies I have ever tested. The ripple was way too high, it failed well below its rating, and the build quality is absolutely appalling. These cheap power supplies should be avoided at all costs.

Score: 0/10
