Save space with the 600W's compact design, wellplaced power switch and fully sleeved cables. The 600W offers the connections and protections needed for basic system builds. With a standard 3 year warranty and ultra quiet fan design the 600W will be a great asset for your next build on a budget.

Had a low-end, cheapy PSU in my rig (I know, I should know better) ... and it went up in smoke yesterday. (thankfully, it didn't take my motherboard or GPU with it).
Anyways, I went to Best Buy to get a new PSU. Found this one. Got home and installed it. The wires are clean and nicely wrapped. Made for an easy install and a clean, open system. Powered up my rig and viola ... I'm back in business.
My temps on my video card have gone down 15c with just this PSU. I'm guessing that my old PSU ran hot and increased the ambient temp. in my case which resulted in my GPU getting warmer than it should. Last night while gaming (World of Warcraft), the fans on my GPU never revved up to where I could hear them. This has NEVER happened. I've always heard my fans revving up in certain areas of the game, especially the login screen.
Anyways, this power supply is quiet and runs cool. I am VERY happy I purchased this power supply. I love eVGA GPUs, now I love their PSU's just as much. I STRONGLY suggest buying this brand. (My next build will have an eVGA modular PSU ... probably a 650 or 850.
One VERY satisfied customer right here. Buy one, you won't regret it! (not to mention, eVGA has the best customer service in the business)
