One P4!
The good news is this power supply has a nice quiet fan and costs bout half what many name brands are asking.The bad news is that it's not modular, so you get the supplied connectors and can't change them.Also, while it has the standard 20 pin ATX connector, Molex, and SATA - it only has ONE P4 connector. Most modern motherboards have TWO P4 inputs to provide extra power for peripherals. Your motherboard may or may not work if you only connect one P4.It also doesn't have a 6 PIN VESA connector that's used to directly power some high amp graphics cards.With those limitations understood, it's a great deal, quiet, and I would strongly recommend it provided your motherboard only requires one P4.

Worked for three hours before sparks shot out of it and it wouldn't work again
I used this power supply in a computer that didn't require much wattage, but the power supply price was good. Since it was a lower budget computer build for someone who needed a newer computer for a low price, I spent less than usual on the power supply. The computer was an i5-6600, B150 motherboard, 16GB of RAM, and a 500GB SSD. Definitely not something this power supply shouldn't be able to handle easily at its rated wattage.I installed windows, and other software, then let the computer run for a little while to make sure everything was OK. The computer ran for about 3 hours before spraks started shooting out of the power supply. Then the computer shut off. I could not get the power supply to work again after that using a power supply tester.I have been building computers since the 1990's, both professionally and for friends and family. This is only the 2nd time I've seen a power supply fail this fast and with such spectacular results.I would not recommend this product to anyone.
