Nice Power Supply, Good Price
I replaced an older power supply with the APEVIA VENUS450W 450W ATX Power Supply and it works great. I like to have a little extra reserve power for any future computer parts add-ons and usb powered devices. The power supply is quiet and comes with mounting screws and power cable. I will order this power supply again when needed.

Would I put it in a high powered PC with expensive parts? NO! Does it work for an old computer power supply replacement? YES!

Great Performance
As an old schooler A+ type, I installed this PSU on Mom’s vintage 2003 Compaq/HP Presario that I maintain in pristine condition. This unit replaced the 2002 Antec 450w ATX 1.0 PSU that had a dead(blown/shorted) capacitor for some reason. I’d had my service frame PSU(original BFG tech-650w) installed for some time-glad to have it back on the bench.I ran a full suite of 24hours long CPU stress testing, and THEN ran linux boot discs and memtest (v5.01) after 24 hours-the PSU STAYED within 0.001 volts ALL night/day. And the 5vdc rails NEVER varied ANY!It’s still running, meaning it should run from here on out. You could barely any feel any heat from the fans. For this install, I recommend it all day. For a memory intensive workstation/gaming systems, I would still go with EVGA/Seasonic…

This is NOT a 450 watt power supply
This thing has the thinnes wires I’ve ever seen on a PC PSU, it has a CPU connector, one line of MOLEX, one line of Data and a standard 24 pin. But not a single PCIE power connector. I can’t use MOLEX to PCIE cause I feel like I’ll burn my house down with that incredibly cheap feeling wiring. I would not recommend this if you care about the PC, your house, or pushing more than 200 watts out of it. It may do 450, but I dot. Trust it especially considering I’d have to run PCIE through the MOLEX and SATA wires.

Quality
I’ve always been a fan of Apevia products, always good quality never had any issues, this power supply actually went out yesterday (03/02/2024) which is a little off for what I usually get from this brand, yes a year is a long time but I’ve had plenty of their units last more than a few years, I’ll probably purchase another from them soon but I ultimately hope they’re not cutting corners and getting over on your loyal customers, you guys are doing great don’t go to the dark side please. ð

Bought this to replace an old power supply in an even older PC. There was a bad bearing in the old PSU fan which caused a loud grinding noise occasionally. It did not need 450W but this was one of the best deals at the time of purchase.The power supply feels like Apevia was very cost-efficient in its construction, including the materials used. The cords for CPU and motherboard power are short so cable management is limited. That said, it works and didnât cost a lot. That is all I was looking for. If it stops working, Iâll update this review.

Works Fine, Be Aware There Is No PCIE Cable
It’s fine for the price. Doesn’t seem to be badly made. You should be aware there is no PCIE Cable – this means that if your GPU needs any power besides the PCIE slot itself, you are out of luck. You’d either need to buy a possibly dangerous adapter cable to run off of the MOLEX cable at your own risk – in which case you may as well buy a better PSU, or buy a low power GPU that doesn’t need a separate power cable.It’s OK for what I needed. The cables are all black, which is nice, but some are almost like loose spaghetti strands. It did work right out of the box, so it’s acceptable for my needs.

This ATX PS has my HP Pro 3130 MT desktop running again
It was a little alarming that this PS is so much lighter than the original but that didn’t stop me. It is a little quieter than the original. I am glad I read the instructions about the cable ends being tweakable because I did have to separate one so it would work on my old HP Motherboard. Once separated I nearly needed a magnifying glass to determine which of the two (4 pin) connectors would attach properly. The other unneeded 4 pin connector has no chance of shorting against anything so I did nothing special and let it find its own resting spot nearby. For people that go overboard on disconnecting cables there was a reminder note on the instructions about being sure you MB power-on button cable is attached. I presume it’s so that people don’t think using the power switch on your new PS will turn on your computer. Most machines have their own separate case button that is used to turn on the machine and the one on the power supply just gets left in the on position. My only trip up on this repair was a detent (protrusion) on the computer case that is there to secure the PS firmly at the opposite end from the 4 screws so there is no chance to vibrate. I wanted to pry it away but it only needed a really firm push to release the failed supply for removal. I hope this helps. Long live desktop Internet PC’s!

Cheap PSU really meant to be used for builds that will use an iGPU (integrated graphcis) or have a gpu that will not use any external power from the PSU via PCIE cables. Wasn’t honestly clear in the description, wish they had shown pictures or had some

Itâs the cheapest psu out there and just look at the reviews. I ordered one and just the quality of the un sleeved cables made me not even want to power it on. I instantly decided to send it back and order a nice $100 EVGA psu. For a cheap psu itâs not worth risking your hardware.
