Pros: When it was still working it was a quiet power supply. Nice cables. from Newegg.com Pros: The product has many features that make it versatile for many applications, and operation is nearly silent. Cons: Mine failed in flight after 45 seconds of run time. I'm certain this was an isolated incodent, as Corsair builds fantastic components. I have many Corsair parts and this is the first time I've had one fail at all much less so quickly. from Newegg.com Pros: No pro at all, bcuz i cant turn it on. i put my old junk 300w in and that one works just fine!!! Cant believe newegg sent me a broken item!!! from Newegg.com Pros: It was well priced, especially with the rebate. Works fine after 6 months. from Newegg.com Pros: Was looking for a replacement for my stock 300W psu that came with my Dell 530, found that it was ATX, looked around, and found this (and all Corsairs) to be highly recommended not only at newegg, but in blogs in the computing community. If you have only 1 PCIE x16 slot and want to upgrade your stock PSU, I highly recommend this. from Newegg.com Cons: Dead on arrival. As I pulled it new from its box a piece of black plastic fell out of the PSU itself. While plugged in it is constantly on. It does not need to be issued the signal to turn on. from Newegg.com Pros: Works without issuesVery quiet (whisper quiet)Stability of rails. able to handle brief dips in line output without issues. from Newegg.com Very affordable. Cons: Load it at all over 200W, and the fan is already spinning up to full speed. Corsair doesn't provide the graphs of output to fan noise anymore, but let me tell you for a "Core i7 certified" power supply, don't expect to load your cores for more than a few seconds before the tornado starts. My own system is much lower TDP than i7. from Newegg.com Pros: 3rd Corsair PSU. Havent had an issue yet. from Newegg.com Pros: Bought this to replace OEM power supply in my HP Pavilion when i started adding on to it. No surprises, it just works. from Newegg.com
