Well

I'm not an expert in power supplies, I bought this one for an upgrade of my pc and it runs my config without worries and leaves me a lot of margin (MSI B450 Tomahawk max, 1050ti, ryzen 3 2200g, 2x8gb vengeance lpx 3200mhz, 4 fans, 2ssd, 1 hdd) The cables look nice, it's black but pretty well finished I'm not an expert, but it's what I expected.

Disappointed for the 1st time

I took this power supply for a change on an existing configuration. The motherboard is 20 pin and this power supply is not 20 pin + 4 as on the picture and in the text, but 24 pin! Internet sales, the photos must be checked!

        Good product

        Hello,
        delivered well, powers a multimedia PC.
        it does the job, not for GDDR7 cards, all the others, no problem.

        Very good.

        Power supply purchased to replace mine that failed. Works very well, relatively quiet. Perfect delivery.

        Fan weakness

        After 2 years and 9 months of loyal service on an entry-level gamer config, the power supply fan is showing signs of weakness: difficulty starting up when the computer starts up (several start-up cycles, ramping up, then stopping) and whistling.

        I got it about 2 years ago and I've had no problems with it. It's small, quiet and it's good enough for normal PCs.

        Bought for office use

        I bought this power supply for office use on a rebuilt PC. Fulfilled my needs perfectly. This is not my first CORSAIR power supply and it won't be my last, I am very satisfied with the product. I would recommend

        discreet

        simple and discreet for a power supply, corresponding to expectations. the only small fault is that the cables look rather down-market, it may be a fault on my product, but compared to a Bequiet 1000... the quality is not the same visually.

        Silent

        It's enough for what I need. If I'd been more careful, I'd have taken a modular instead of having cables on standby.
        The power supply is silent.

        I really like the name of the model

        mois jai bien marque cv550? ca resemble ferrarir f570 avec 550 cheveux dernergie
        apres un peuus dommage il ya pas la couleur blanche avec un rgb
        I think 550w is better than 1000w because imagine you have the wrong cable connection.
        that means it will burn the motherboard and also it will jam its visible of flat
        Apres ce que je penceLDCL ces dommage il lui ofre il paire de gans en qua de blesure ou il recoit du 550 w il sur lui

        General opinion

        I've been using it for a while now and it's a great value.
        I've been using it for a while now and it's a great tool to help me get my hands on it, but I'm not sure I'll be able to do it again.
        The packaging was quite correct. The assembly is simple.
        The price is also very interesting for the quality.

        It is the perfect match for my expectations, but it ...

        This CV550 power supply is perfect and works really well for powering a GEFORCE RTX 3060 graphics card that I had bought two weeks earlier.
        But I advise you to invest in a modular power supply like Corsair RM550x V2 80PLUS Gold, ( or other ) because you will only plug the cables you need.
        With the CV 550 I had to group two cables totally useless, however the technical service had directed me towards a modular power supply but I had not understood the utility of multiple cable ... and I was stopped only at the price (30Euro of month). I understood when I plugged the whole thing in and found myself with extra cables.

        Does its work in silence

        Installed to replace a 10 year old power supply. I was able to plug in my 4 disks and a burner. The machine is stable again, and quiet. The cables are in black sheaths, it's much less messy in the tower.

        The basic, effective one!

        Used to refurbish a CM/CG assembly in a recovered box. Simple and effective! It didn't take much to do the job! Be careful though, there are a lot of cables to store in the box as it is not modular.

        Corsair makes coffee

        I've never been disappointed with their power supplies, Corsair is my favourite brand for power supplies for my PCs.

        I've been running my corsair AX 1200 gold version for 10 years and it doesn't flinch, it's been installed in my last pc with no worries.

        I've been using it for a while now and it's not a good idea to use it as a power supply for my PC.

        Corsair CV550 80PLUS Bronze Internal Power Supply

        Satisfied with the internal power supply, it powers my extra equipment (internal for the added Samsung SSD) and external (Canon LiDe 400 compact scanner, webcam, external Iomega Zip 100 floppy drive, external 1.44 floppy drive and external PNY Elite 240GB SSD) without any problem for its silence and price.

        good value for money

        good replacement for an old pc, a bit noisy to use, the big minus was the reception of the package 15
        The main drawback was that I received the package 15 days after ordering instead of the 48 hours I expected.

        Corsair is not very talkative!

        The block, cables, connectors and even the packaging are of good quality and finish.
        However, a technical documentation is missing (in French if possible), in particular to avoid making mistakes with the cables, even if engravings on the connectors limit the risk for "newbies".

        I have not encountered any problems with this power supply, neither during installation, nor with the length of the cables or the number of these, nor even after use. not modulable of course, but thanks to certain boxes now, the excess cable is well hidden. very good value for money and quiet.

        Very good value for money for small configurations

        Used to replace an outdated Zalman 420w that had broken down on a small configuration that did not require a lot of power.
        Installation without difficulties.
        This is my 5th or 6th Corsair power supply (VX and CX) in the last 12 years. The others are still functional and used.
        I'll see if the CV range is as reliable in the long run.

        Good but...

        The power supply does its job well. Some of the cables are a bit short, especially the one to the motherboard.

        On the other hand, I'm a bit annoyed about one aspect. On some games that are quite demanding, there are some coil whine noises that come from the power supply. However, activating a frame limiter or vertical sync remedies the problem (and I don't really need more than 70FPS...)

        In short, suitable but not perfect for those who want to exaggerate the performance.

        Power supply

        This power supply is well made. The only negative side is my choice for a modular 0. That's a lot of unused cables but I still managed to hide them well. If you want a ventilated case I recommend a semi or full modulable, if not this one does the job very well!

        I'm not an expert in power supplies, I bought this one for an upgrade of my pc and it runs my config without worries and leaves me a lot of margin (MSI B450 Tomahawk max, 1050ti, ryzen 3 2200g, 2x8gb vengeance lpx 3200mhz, 4 fans, 2ssd, 1 hdd)
        The cables look nice, it's black but pretty well finished

        Perfect for a small configuration.

        Perfect product, matches perfectly with the description.
        Very easy to assemble, rather compact power supply used with a gtx 1030 and a ryzen 5 2600x no problem.
        The cables are quite nice even if they are a bit stiff (a bit more complicated for the management cable if the case is thin) but the plugs hold very well.
        In addition, the power supply is very quiet.

        Very good value for money
        I highly recommend this product.

        short

        Compact, quiet, sufficient number of cables, maybe one too many hard drive cables (which takes up space when storing it).

        Good product

        I am not a specialist, but the product I have assembled works well and the price is right. Good explanation of the product on your site.

        Excellent!

        Quiet at low revs (self-regulating speed) and good quality hardware and connectors. To be recommended.

        Excellent

        More than enough power for a basic configuration, nice finish, quiet power supply. In short, completely satisfied for the price.

        Never disappointed

        I always use this brand and I am very satisfied with it.
        The power supply is quiet and sufficient for small configurations: I3 9100 - 32 GB RAM - no graphics card.

        Powerful and quiet power supply

        It is very nice and easy to install. The cables are black and the main ones are sheathed. There are plenty of hard drive power supplies, two PCIe sockets, a PCU socket, the motherboard socket, two Amolex sockets. I recommend it!!!

        Attention coil whine

        Product returned because it generates "coil whine" (rather unpleasant noise due to micro-vibrations) when a 3D application is launched.
        Tested with the following configuration:

        Asus Prime Z390-P
        i5-9600K
        GTX Zotac 1660 Super
        Samsung Evo 960 500GB
