Great for your basic office computer or low end gaming computer. Probably wouldn't handle high end graphics cards very well above a GTX 960 or R9 370. Lack of a quick shut off switch on the back was disheartening as well.

seems cheaply made, but does supply power

As far as power supplies go, I don't have much to compare it to. but I must say, the plastic SATA connectors are trash. One snapped just straight pushing it into the hard drive. no angle, straight on. The Molex connectors don't come with caps so they spark when they get too close to any metal in the case. thankfully the motherboard has over voltage protections and grounding connections. as for the power supply itself, it works. I've got the molex cables dangling outside the case until I can get caps and I'll never use more than one or two SATA drives so I won't be needing the broken connector.

This was a perfect replacement for my desktop power supply. Easy to install. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the fan is a little noisier that my the original one, but still an exceptionable level.

I came to the store to purchase a smaller wattage power supply. Once there, the salesman showed me this unit and for $10 more increased my system wattage to this unit considering it was going to run a Lightscribe DVD burner, Vista Business and would be attached to my network to run movies and DVD's to my bedroom. This unit is more efficient and ready to supply more power if I need or want to up gave this machine the power is there and was only $10 more than I came in to buy.

Needed a new power supply ASAP. This was available and met my needs. It's a little bigger than what was originally in my computer but fit ok. Plenty of power connections. Met all my requirements.

The fan went out in the desktop so I decided I would try to fix myself. Went to BB and asked employee for assistance picking correct one . Plug in and go from there.

I took my computer into the store to get the correct part and still got the wrong part and had to go back to the store to get the right one. Once home with that one it worked just fine.

The power supply has sufficient connections to power two video cards. The power supply does run a little loud compared to Thermaltake units I have purchased at Best Buy and used.

My Power supply went bad. Walked in store first thing i saw was this power supply. Though it's more than i needed but it's actually helped me in the long run since i added a good graphic card and it needed power.
So i would recommended this for anyone who is planning to add more parts in the future such as a video card or 2nd hard drive.
Good Product.
Thank you Best buy.

As advertised but product had been tampered with. Exchange was OK but required an additional trip - be wary, as this product is NOT shrink-wrapped.
