Corsair SF Series, SF600, 600 Watt, Fully Modular Power Supply, 80+ Gold Certified

I had purchased both the 500W SFX-L and the 600W SX600-G for an NCase compact gaming PC project I was working on, and over time, have become summarily disappointed in both products. The 500W: - Too large to accommodate a full sized GPU in this case... though not a knock specifically against this product, it is something to consider on smaller builds. - The Fan wobbles and makes a rubbing sound. This is a complaint I've read both here, on Newegg, and other various forums. Thought it works in "Silent" mode, even at low levels of load the fan spins up, and is noticeably audible. This was a big problem for me as one of my build parameters was to be ultra-quiet The 600W: - Started to fail after only 1 year of operation. - The fan is extremely loud, and spins up quickly with even minimal loading. Many people have pointed this out, and the only real solution is to replace the fan in it with a similar sized noctua. - Runs noticeably warmer than it's 500W sibling. The options are limited for small form factor power supplies, and both of these have their faults. I would highly advise steering away from the 600W supply as it does have repeatedly reported reliability issues. Both of the supplies have issues with noise from the fans. Luckily there are other options now. Anyone looking for an SFX power supply should do themselves a favor and check out the Corsair SF600: https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-SF600-Performance-Power-Supply/dp/B01CGI5M24/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1465937155&sr=1-1&keywords=corsair+sf600 I've had this power supply installed in my machine since the Silverstone started failing, and I am 100% satisfied to date. It runs extremely silent and cool. The only knock I have against it are the cables that you have to use, but that is a nitpick compared to reliability. This is a must get for SFX PSU needs

This SF600 PSU was installed into a 350W Sonnet Breakaway eGPU enclosure. I bought this PSU as I trust Corsair to make a high quality product that is super reliable and efficient. Sonnet, in their wisdom, used a common PSU type.. which allows its customers to swap out the PSU they provide with an aftermarket PSU such as this one. I could have paid the cost of two of these PSUs to buy a version of the Sonnet Breakaway that is comparable in PSU wattage.. but why? Then I would have a no-name crappy PSU in my eGPU enclosure powering my ridiculously expensive video card. Instead, I bought their lowest tier (cheapest) Sonnet Breakaway Box, then swapped the PSU with this one. The PSU swaps in perfect and since its module you only need to install the exact cables you need. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B072L9QTZT If I could pick one thing wrong with it.. it is the smallest thing really. If I had the ability to flip the power switch, that would be terrific. When I install this into the Breakaway box, the PSU's power switch sits so that what should be on (tipped upward) is actually off. Not a big deal at all. But I wanted to mention this in case there is anyone out there at Corsair paying attention. ;)

The Corsair SF600 is a great powersupply in a small package. It powers my system beautifully. Power draw from the wall tends around 380W for my system under load which is right in the high efficiency mark for this power supply. I am running a GTX 1070 on a Maximus 8 Gene motherboard. Intel Core i7 6700K as the processor, running at stock turbo. I also recommend reading the review done by JohnnyGuru. This power supply is probably one of the best values on the market. Not to mention this is TINY. I was surprised by the rating and the power delivery in such a small power supply. Corsair offers a 7 year warranty on this product, which is fantastic. This isn't my first Corsair PSU. I previously purchased an AX750i and was not disappointed. I wish I could deduct half a star because of the 24-pin power connector. It could be 50-100mm longer to fit with my particular build. I opted to purchase sleeved cables from Cable Mod to rectify the length, and look badass.

I have stuffed this power supply into over 50 builds, over the last two years. NONE of the 50 have caused us a single issue. That is nice, since we warranty our work. Normally the PS is the main failure worry I have, but now it's fans (since we don't use spinning drives anymore) - I fully blame Corsair for that (we only use their supplies (10 years now)). It's quite. It fits. It has plenty of power for modern gaming PCs. It's reliable for workstations. It's affordable (in the business world, teens looking for a gaming PC - might have a different opinion). It comes in a flashy box with a velvet bag that everyone I know has now (and likes). They handle crappy ac power well. That alone has saved us thousands in onsite component repair. I almost RMA-ed one once (realized a board fault and canceled the RMA) - Corsair was "business friendly" in manor and willing to help - they issued the RMA without a fight. The only con I have, is that it's better to buy them retail than through a distributor, pricing is near the same and shipping, warranty service is better on the retail side. If you buy 100s at time that may be different - but we buy them 5 - 10 at a time. Okay another con - I have a ton of velvet bags now and no other swag - at some point they should send me a invite to a company party or at least a t-shirt ;)

Works as intended.

Es un producto que al tenerlo se nota muchísimo la calidad. Viene perfectamente protegida con una bolsa de un material similar al terciopelo. Trae una gran cantidad de cables para hacer nuestras conexiones a nuestros componentes. Es un producto recomendado para aquellos que quieren un PC compacto y un rendimiento energético de calidad. Pros - El tamaño de la fuente - El material con el que fue fabricado - 7 años de garantía - Cables para periféricos Contras - Los cables PCI se quedan un poco cortos si es que buscas hacer una buena gestión de cables

Es una fuente pequeñísima. Perfecta para ensambles mini itx. La tengo en uso con un ryzen 7 3800x, una rtx 2080 super, un disipador de torre scythe fuma 2, 2 módulos de ram xpg d80, 3 ventiladores noctua a 1500 rpm y 3 discos duros, 2 de formato 2.5 y uno 3.5. Incluso he visto la posibilidad de cambiar la tarjeta de video por una 3080, he visto reviews y parece que la fuente puede con esa tarjeta aún.

Never installed an SFX power supply, easy install, limited connections (due to size obviously, and power limit) but overall great product. Corsair does it again.

Tardo una semana en llegar y eso que fue por Amazon México, aún así valió la pena esperar ya que la calidad de esta fuente es increíble, los cables son premium completamente negros, hasta el empaque de esta misma es muy bueno. Es perfecta para un armado mini itx con suficiente potencia para una gtx1070 o hasta una gtx1080
