Rating + 5 4 SATA connectors, not 2


Pros: Paid $32.99, quiet ball bearing fan, decent build quality, braided wiring harnesses, works like it should so far.

Cons: None yet

Other Thoughts: I've noticed that a few reviewers mentioned that there were only 2 SATA connectors. Rosewill must have updated this PS since mine has 4. I just figured I'd mention that

Rating + 1 WORST THING EVER


Pros: I was very pleased at first with the performance of this PSU everything was fine until the day the warranty ended on this thing. I hate it.

Cons: After a year I the problems of random restarts happen, again and again. Sometimes it would even sustain for a full 4 hours, then poof instant restart. I called Rosewill about this issue. They said “You have one year warranty and I apologize but your warranty has ended.” NOW!!! I see why they give one year of warranty, because this pieces of JUNK last around that time and MAYBE if you are lucky a little more.

Other Thoughts: I do not recommend this power supply to anyone. I’m very displeased with Rosewill who would not replace it at all. Do not but power supplies from Rosewill. I’m talking from experience. After one year of warranty, this PSU will start giving you problems like no other. I had an Antec 430 watt 3 years people, 3 YEARS!! had no problems with it whatsoever. Going back to Antec, NEVER AGAIN WITH ROSEWILL!!!

Rating + 2 About a year and a half - dead


Pros: Cheap, nice clean look, plenty of power for most systems.

Cons: Died after a year and a half, took me close to three weeks to figure out what was causing my random reboots ( was this PS ), PS was one of my first thoughs but due to the randomness of the reboots and a memtest saying the ram was bad it took awhile.

Other Thoughts: I replaced this with 5 yrs old generic 250w Antec to test, system running better than ever! How sad is that.
Just throwing this up there for anyone else that might run into this very irritating random reboots for no apparent reason. Random as in two hours in an intense game or two minutes after a fresh reboot, crazy.

Rating + 5 Diesel


Pros: Looks sweet, and is enough power for my current setup. Just got an ECS A780GM-A Ultra mobo, AMD Phenom II 940 X4, and 8GB of RAM and everything is working great!

Cons: Not very many 4-pin power connectors ... but common, who still uses those anyway?

Other Thoughts: Looks slick, all cables are wrapped in mesh which helps to organize the mess inside my box. SATA power cables finally reach my drive bay! The Rosewill case I purchased originally (over a year ago) came with a power supply but its own SATA cables couldn't reach the drive bay! oh well now its running diesel!

Rating + 4 Good power supply. Some cables too short


Pros: Very well built. Tons of connections

Cons: While there are tons of connections...if you use a non-SATA Hard drive and non-SATA CD drive, you may have a problem. The space between those connectors wasn't enough for me to hook them both up. I moved my CD drive down a slot...didn't matter. Came up an inch short. Had to dig through my computer parts and get a connector I had that extended the cable a few inches and I was fine.

Other Thoughts: I know most people don't have older devices where this would cause a problem...but just spreading out the two standard plugs by another few inches would have fixed this issue and alot of frustration on my part

Rating + 5 I like it


Pros: I have been using Rosewill products for years. I have always been very pleased. This is my first power supply and again I am not disappointed. This unit is quiet, powerful and stable.
I am running near it's maximum capacity with this system and it throws a lot of heat out the back. However, I have never had a single system lockup or burp since I fired it up.

Cons: Nothing so far

Other Thoughts: I will be buying more of these power supplies to keep in the parts box to replace the supplies in friends computers as they die. I have seen a lot of power supply failures as there are a lot of cheaply made supplies around. This one really seems to be a solid choice.

This psu runs it all very well with nada for problems. How much more could it handle? Ahh... I don't know that's why I'm replacing it, but for the price I am still extremely happy with this psu and would recommend it to anyone who needs dependable power for a mild gaming rig!

Rating + 2 Molex deficient


Pros: Inexpensive, quiet, seems to work OK.

Cons: Only two molex connectors. They are both on the same run of cable, and tip-to-tip, they are only 7 1/4" apart. This means you better have all your non-sata devices VERY close together!

Other Thoughts: I have a small repair business and I bought 3 of these on sale w/free shipping to have on hand as replacements when needed. I will need to buy some type of extension in order to use them in any machine older than a year or two.

Rating + 2 Good when it works


Pros: Nice and quiet. Looks cool. Nicely wrapped cables.

Cons: No SATA plugs.

Mine died 6 days before the 1 year warranty expired. Originally thought my hard drives were dying, as they would shut off and I could hear them spin down. Then they would power up and spin up again only to do it again anywhere from 10 seconds to 10 minutes later. When all 3 drives were doing this however, I knew it wasn't that.

Swapped out my older Antec Truepower and everything powered up and ran like a top.

Took the psu and threw it in to a couple other machines I had laying around and they wouldn't even post with it.

Other Thoughts: Just submitted my RMA request with customer service. Newegg has never failed me before when it comes to service, I have no reason to believe they will now.

While I feel this PSU is decent, I think it is a definite case of "you get what you pay for". Dead after 1 year. My 4 year old Antec Truepower that doesn't have all the newer connectors or a fancy black paint job, or nice silent 120mm fan, still runs perfect.

Rating + 4 Not enough SATA cables, otherwise a good PSU


Pros: Nice and quiet, incredibly simple to install (I guess all PSUs are).

Cons: Only comes with 2 SATA power cables, and they're both attached to each other. This makes it difficult to power a hard drive and an optical drive because the cables won't reach. You will need to buy a 4 pin molex to SATA adapter at your local computer store (only a few dollars, but it's still a hassle).

Other Thoughts: Apart from the issue with the cables, this was a good purchase. For some reason it comes with an abundance of 4 pin molex cable though...

Rating + 5 great PSU


Pros: I've used this PSU for every single one of my LGA775 board builds, from the upper-moderate performance to everyday home use. its a great reliable PSU. Cables a long enough to fit across larger cases and they are bundled to keep from wire clutters.

Cons: only 2 SATA power cables, but you can get an 4molex-SATA adapter if u need it.

Other Thoughts: i've built lots of computers now and i can say this is one of the best PSUs i've built with. Remember: DON'T cheap out to much on a PSU, because chances are if it goes out... it will take a few other components with it. However, this is a great PSU for the price

Rating + 1 Bad Experience


Pros: It worked for a bit, before it blew everything up.

Cons: Had a bad experience with this power supply. It was in a very basic system for my parents and lasted about a year. Basically the voltages were all off and I think this caused everything else to break faster than normal.

Other Thoughts: A Power supply is a very important part of a system. Going cheap now may cost you a new motherboard, graphics cards, and RAM later... Learn from my experience and go get a good supply for just a few more dollars.

Pros: good cable length. Runs as advertised. good number of connectors for a basic system.

Cons: barely noticeable wine at high temps. needs more sata connectors for a more modern system.

Other Thoughts: Given that you can counter it's high temperature problem with more cooling. Fan connectors would have rounded this power supply off quite nicely.

Pros: Functions well. Voltages where they should be. Cable wraps.

Cons: After further consideration, I have returned this unit. My issue was that there was a slight low pitched hum which varied in pitch accompanied by a slight vibration. It was noticeable in a quiet room. This sample may have had a fan which wasn't quite up to spec. I am being quite picky here and this noise would probably not be an issue for most people.

Other Thoughts: Thanks to Rosewill for responding quickly to my inquiry and Newegg for the return at their expense. First class customer service.

Pros: The wrapped cables make it easy to install. Runs very quiet, monitoring the system temperature to set the fan speed.

Cons: 1. The holes in my case do not match the holes in the power supply, so I could not screw it in. I thought this was a standard.
2. There is no fan monitor cable to plug into the motherboard.

Rating + 4 Not Enough Current Available


Pros: Well built supply with wrapped cables.

Cons: I was having issues with my system freezing when I ran Battlefield 2142 and Company of Heroes. I upgraded my old power supply(250W) with this hoping it would resolve the issue. It didn't. I have an EVGA 8600GT 256MB (256-P2-N751-TR) graphics card and it calls for a +12v supply with 18A capacity. This PSU only provides 14A on the +12V1 rail. And although the other +12V2 provides 16A, the two do not combine to give me the required 18A for the card. I was limited by the +12V1 rail. I returned this PSU for a refund and bought a Corsair CMPSU-750TX instead (a whopping 60A +12V single rail!). Haven't had any more lockups!

Other Thoughts: If you are having issues with system lockups or wierd video effects don't always blame your system or video card. Make sure your PSU is up to the task. Always check to make sure the PSU will provide the maximum current load for your system and video card. Beware of PSUs that have high wattage ratings but have multiple rails with inadequate current capacities. Always make sure the rail that powers your video has a current rating that is 25% or more higher than the ampacity requirement of the card.

Cons: I can only complain about the SATA connectors. I had to use a molex to SATA adapter for the DVD drive, which is no big deal.

Other Thoughts: I'm so happy I got this. I was having some weird rebooting issues with my computer. I thought it was my RAM at first...but I finally ruled it down to the PSU. This PSU is the start of upgrading my rig. Now I can get the 780G mobo I've had my eye on.

Pros: Nice box, nice connectors, nice cables and shrouds, makes for a very clean build. You're getting a lot for your dough here, at least in my opinion.

Cons: Still no screws included, still not very heavy (and someone still tells me heavier is better :-).

Other Thoughts: I already reviewed the 400W version of this thing, and this one is no different really. For now, I am a Rosewill fan when it comes to cheap yet reliable power supplies.

Pros: Nice power suppy seems to run cool and fan is not loud at all. I got this power supply for a Dell Vostro 200 to replace the one dell put in. Added another hard drive and more memory and was thinking a 300 watt power supply was not going to cut it so I got this one.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: The power supply does not really move alot of air from out of my case. My 92mm fan moves more air then the 120mm fan in the power supply, but thats ok as long as the power supply don't quit. I think it's because of the Smart Temperature Sensor.

Pros: Nice strong baked on finish, Purchased this case 11/3/2007 was amazed at the quality for the price, I love the plastic snaps that locks in the PCI cards and not having to use any screws, very nice Sliding 3.5 trays, The reset button is a nice feature too, With just the (2x120mm fans) one in the power supply and the other in rear of case keeps my system cool even after I put filters over both vents in the side coiver, Another fan could easily be bolted to the side cover air vents as well for estra air flow, Rosewill Stallion Series RD450-2-SB ATX V2.2 450W Power Supply also well designed and build!! "My System" MSI K9NBPM2-FID NVS 210S AM2 with the AMD 4600+ CPU, Kingston ValueRAM 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel KVR800D2N5K2/2G.
The air flow is pulled in through the ajustable Air Guide and is righ over my CPU and RAM.

Cons: I have noting but good to say about this case, even the price and S&H are nice.
"Newegg Rules"

Other Thoughts: The front cover will have to be removed to install your CD/DVD ROM, there are some plastic cover to case tabs you will press and pull bottom outwards first then lift cover upward from the bottom to un hook the top hooks from case, Put the front cover back on in reverse, Line up Top of cover first then push down to hook top to case then push the bottom of cover in untill the tabs snaps back to case. The rail slides will have to be lines up before tightening the screws, just snug them down and slide in your CD/DVD ROM so the rails line up with case then pull the ROM out and firmly tighten the screws and slide it back in to lock in place.

Pros: PRICE! QUIET, perfect for ATX and MicroATX HTPC and computers with low power demands. Stable power. HUGE fan takes out the case hot air too, not just for PSU cooling, but case cooling too.

Cons: none. Too many cables isn't a con at this pricerange. modular PSU's are too expensive for the cause. :-)

Other Thoughts: Cheap and quiet and a great performer. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! I own several Rosewill PSUs. One once had a weird thing that it spun without load, but would not start my mobo. They have a built-in overload protection. If damaged, they won't start even when under regular load. It was just a weird glitch one time, and NewEgg replaced it for me. But aside from that - these are the best PSUs for the price!

Pros: Excellent finish, a healthy weight, and sexy sleeving combine to give off a great superficial impression of this PSU. In addition to looking good, however, rosewill has supplied some beastly performance with these units. I have one driving a power hungry overclocked Pentium D system with a Geforce 9600 and multiple drives, and another giving juice to a x1950 PRO (card requires 450w with 30amp on the rails, which this supplies) and Athlon X2 system. No DOA, they powered right up and I have been LAN partying with my buds after school every day, even dropped one down 2 STORIES of my house on accident and it works fine (do not place new computer parts near stairwell, ever).

Cons: No blingy lights to make my friends envious.

Other Thoughts: I don't really care about noise levels, but I only noticed how little noise these put off while writing this review. In fact, I can't hear these little guys at all over my obnoxious case fans. Red and Green makes you think of christmas every time you look at them.

Pros: This power supply remains cool, and the fan is never spinning all the way. It's almost entirely silent. If you place your hand behind it, there is minimal flow; although this might be because of my Antec P180 case. No LEDs. I despise anything with LEDs all over it.

Cons: It isn't modular, so you are stuck with whatever cables you don't use.

Rating + 5 Quiet


Pros: The large fan results in quiet and cool operation. Great value. No stupid LED lights.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I have bought several Rosewill products and found them all to be very good in terms of quality and value.

Rating + 5 satisfied


Pros: Does the job, quietly, just as I wanted it to. Jacketed cables are a nice feature.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: This replaced an older and much louder piece-of-junk PS. With the concurrent upgrade of my CPU heatsink/fan, hard drives are now the loudest component of my system. Much better.

Rating + 5 Works well


Pros: Very Nice Power Supply. Has enough Cords to power all my drives and my case fans.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: Though this power supply worked nice for me.. I would not recomend it for power demanding builds. I would recomend it for a moderate or upper-moderate build.

Rating + 4 Nice so far


Pros: Its still going after a month.
Heavy,quiet, seems worth it. Nice cables wrap. I have a full tower
cables seem plenty long.

Cons: This could take time to answer as a
good PS will last years.

Other Thoughts: I did find it interesting I shook the PS and heard a noise so tilted it a little and a screw fell out HAHA nice! but so far has not been a problem. Time will tell.

Rating + 1 DOA


Pros: Looks nice.

Cons: Would power my system for 0.5 seconds and then lose all power. Maybe that's not exactly DOA but this power supply still didn't help.

Other Thoughts: Great customer service on newegg's behalf for my RMA. A quick switch to Antec Earthwatts 430W did the trick.

Pros: Excellent Power Supply at a good price. Plenty of power for all my needs. Does exactly as it is supposed to do, and does if very quietly too.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Nice unit. The connectors aren't the best I've seen, but they do the job. That's what matters.

Rating + 5 Incredibly stable


Pros: 450 watts, adequate ventilation, voltages are rock solid, I mean they don't seem to fluctuate at all, maybe the +5V bounces around 0.04V rarely, but thats it.

Cons: weird pairing, only two sata and they are both on the same wire, has two wires containing 3 regular molex connectors and a floppy connector on each.

Other Thoughts: stable voltage allowed for some really neat over clocking for both mobo. and vidcard. I wish they had less molex, no floppy conns. and more satas, but I'll survive as is.
