Apevia ITX-AP300W Mini-ITX/Flex ATX / 1U 300W for POS AIO System Desktop Gaming Server Small Form Factor (Flex ITX) Computer Power Supply

Great little Flex-PSU for tiny builds. I have two and both have been great so far.There's a variety of cable outs on this and seems like they thought of just about everything without making it too long or bulky.I fit one of these in a tiny M-ITX case without to much drama and another one in a small 4-HDD NAS.Seems like it's about perfect on power for these systems and doesn't get stressed at 140w delivery. It's also silent and seems happy to chug along at 10-40w forever.

Ran fine for 5 months under very light load ( < 40 watts ).... then woke up to smoke and the tell tale electrical burning smell filling my office!

Bought a higher end model from another brand and it died immediately. Heard great things about this budget Apevia (and they had cool ITX PC cases back in the day) . After pulling it out of the box, i could see the build quality was very good. Cable thickness and length was adequate for a SFF build with not too much excess wires. Wires are easily managed and can be bundled and either zip or velcro tied together to push out of the way. Big thanks to all black and not the "ketchup and mustard" styled cables for such an inexpensive PSU.Overall super happy with the quality and build. Not pushing any power to this to stress it by any means, a 5700g and a single NVME on an iTX B450 board. Might add another 2.5" SSD or a 3.5" spinning disk but that would encroach on the 300w limit.Ill be highly considering the more powerful 500w+ variants on my future ITX builds.

Well packaged, fast shipping, as described.

What more do you want to know other than that? This is my second power supply from Apevia. The price is right and the power rating is overkill for my Ryzen APU build.

This is a very low end power supply. After few months of very light usage (once very 2-3 weeks for 2-3 hrs) it went down taking RAID 5 array with it. First I noticed one drive having issues in array, within minutes another one started having sense errors and...the whole array went by bye seconds later. Post mortem revealed that this PS cannot keep voltage levels under load, especially 5V rail drops to 4.8V. It's even worse if the load on rails is not even. Output stage has Chengx capacitors, not exactly known for their stellar quality. You really get what you pay for.I can also confirm another buyer suspicion of games being played with this listing. Bought it some time ago, now the link to original product page is gone, however mysteriously I find the exact same product from exact same seller on another listing. That's one way of purging reviews. I'd stay away if you value your data.

PSU died after 1 year

I made a similar review on the last page for this PSU, but apparently the seller just relists it in a new page when people catch up on the fact that it's junk. Burned up within 6 months of using, and various other buyers reported it burning up within varying timelines, ranging between 15 minutes and a year or two. Don't buy it.
