Apevia Prestige, 80+ Gold Certified 800W, RoHS Compliance and Active PFC ATX Gaming Power Supply

Just got it installed and wired. I bought this one because it has four PCIe plugs, seven SATA connections, even has 3 old school IDE connectors. The cabling is wrapped nicely in black mesh, which I didn't expect from a budget unit. It isn't modular, but the wiring is more than long enough for my mid ATX tower. Some ppl said the wiring is too short?? I have a mid tower and I had to curl amd toe back most of it. I guess maybe a full size tower would need creative routing and component placement, but the wiring on this unit is a little longer than standard. I've built many systems- some mine and quite a few for friends and such. These are standard length if not a bit longer. It's hard to find a PSU with more than 4 or 5 SATA connectors for less than 100$. This has 7. I have 5 HDD and 2 DVD writers so I need at least 7 without a hub. I can't hear ot at all. I only hear my case fans and the CPU fan. So far, I'm very happy with it. It is puttimg out nominally about 550W but specs say it can peak short bursts of over 850. IDK about that, I've icky had it for a few hours. Very happy with this purchase. Price is phenomenal for 800W with this many connectors.

It's really hard to write a review for a power supply. It kind of works or it doesn't.I'll admit that I was really feeling the budget crunch when I bought this power supply (Appevia ATX-PR800). I just couldn't swing another $120-$150 for a better known brand. So, I bought the 3-year warranty for $65. Honestly if you get three years out of it it's probably worth it, right?It's a good, solid unit. It is absolutely silent. It has no problem running a mid-high gaming PC based on a 9700K and 1600 Super. For the price it is certainly worth stating that it's gold-certified, so it shouldn't waste power and kill more trees than others. Hey, we should all think of these things, we only have this one planet.It does not have flat cables which I think is a preferred thing now, but what it has is well sleeved and won't cut on a sharp case edge. Perfectly fine. It is not modular, so you have to tuck away those cables that aren't used (I have a rather huge old Lian Li case I still use, so it wasn't a problem for me).Other than the fact that it's so quiet I had to check to see if the fan was spinning it's hard to judge. The only real way to do it is wait and see if it lasts. Considering I'm probably pulling well less that 400 watts from it, I suspect it will be fine.Recommended for those of us on a budget.

This is a nice power supply, it has the 600w NVidia gpu connector so you don't have to use the adapter from nvidia cards. well worth the money.

I was really hopeful when buying from Apevia, since I believe they've turned the tide on their product quality and are now a brand worth buying from. And for the most part I can confirm that they do produce quality products now. However, there's just one problem I have with this 800W Gold power supply. The noise. The fan used to cool this PSU runs constantly, and sounds like a very muffled little engine just put-putting along in there. Since the rest of my PC is virtually silent, the noise from the PSU fan is very prominent. Gaming sounds fine, since the rest of my PC spins up anyway, but while editing photos and doing homework, this thing gets really irritating. I just can't keep a PSU in my PC that sounds like this constantly. Otherwise, if you already have noisy components in your PC, like an AIO pump or fans that stay on, then go for it. You can't beat this wattage and efficiency rating for the price.
