    Excellent value for money for a small configuration

    For 80€ you can run a desktop PC or a "small" gamer PC, everything is there => 2xPCIE 6+2 pins.

    At this price no modularity of course, but you get a 500W power supply with a very good efficiency ("80 plus Gold")

    The cables are not excessively long but correspond to the product => who says "small" PC says "small" tower, so no bad surprises in this respect.

    In use the power supply is really quiet .... in fact we didn't load it enough for it to ventilate, in the end we hear more the basic fan of the processor.

    Modular, modular... yes but not here...

    Good power supply that is sufficient for a PC with water cooling, 3 HDs and an NVIDIA fanless graphics card.
    But the modular ones are so much better! Too much cable in the case!

    Good quality food

    I chose this power supply on the recommendation of the LDLC support which I must say by the way is excellent! I called them to validate my choice of components and what is rare even allowed me to make some savings by proposing cheaper components my configuration is made for video editing and not for gaming. This power supply is neither modular nor semi-modular but it does the job. I only give it 7/10 because the cables are not very flexible and it lacks at least one molex -> sata adapter. But I'm just kidding!
