XANDER 650W 80 Plus 120mm Fan UK Power Cord Power Supply
The XANDER 650W 80 Plus 120mm Fan UK Power Supply is another affordable and efficient power supply unit (PSU) designed for users looking to build a mid-range PC or replace an old PSU without breaking the bank. With 650W of power output, it is ideal for budget-conscious gamers or general-purpose builds that don’t require extreme wattage. It provides good efficiency, basic protections, and a simple setup, with the added benefit of a UK power cord for users in the UK and other regions with compatible power outlets.
Features
1. Power Output (650W):
- The 650W capacity is a perfect fit for mid-tier gaming PCs, office systems, and entry-level workstations.
- It is ideal for builds that run single-GPU setups (such as an NVIDIA GTX 1660 or RTX 3050 or AMD RX 6600), non-overclocked CPUs, and multiple storage devices.
- The 650W output offers enough headroom for most gaming rigs, as well as multimedia systems, but may not be suitable for power-hungry setups with multiple high-end GPUs or extreme overclocking.
2. 80 PLUS Certification:
- The 80 PLUS certification ensures that the PSU operates at a minimum of 80% efficiency at typical loads, which helps reduce energy waste and heat generation compared to less efficient, non-certified PSUs.
- This efficiency translates into lower electricity bills over time and is an important factor for users who want to make their system more energy-efficient.
- While the 80 PLUS certification is not as high as Gold or Platinum (like more expensive models), it still offers a solid level of efficiency for most users.
3. 120mm Cooling Fan:
- The 120mm fan provides efficient cooling for the PSU, helping to maintain optimal operating temperatures under load.
- During lighter tasks, the fan typically runs at low speeds, keeping the PSU quiet. As demand increases (for example, during gaming or heavy workloads), the fan ramps up to increase airflow and prevent overheating.
- The 120mm fan size is a good balance between effective cooling and quiet operation, and is commonly found in many PSUs of this wattage range.
4. UK Power Cord:
- This PSU comes with a UK power cord, which is ready to plug into UK power outlets. If you are based in the United Kingdom, or another country with similar power connections, this saves the need to purchase a separate cable.
- The power cord ensures easy and quick setup without having to worry about compatibility issues or missing parts.
5. Protection Features:
- The XANDER 650W PSU includes the essential protections to help ensure your system runs safely:
- Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
- Under Voltage Protection (UVP)
- Over Current Protection (OCP)
- Short Circuit Protection (SCP)
- Over Temperature Protection (OTP)
- These protections are critical for preventing damage to your components in case of electrical issues, such as voltage surges, overheating, or short circuits.
6. Compact Size & Standard ATX Form Factor:
- The XANDER 650W PSU adheres to the ATX form factor, which is the most common size for modern desktop power supplies. This ensures that it will fit into most standard ATX cases.
- The compact design allows for easy installation, making it a good fit for mid-tower and full-tower cases. It is particularly useful for users with limited space or compact builds.
7. Affordability:
- The XANDER 650W PSU is designed as a budget-friendly option, making it a great choice for users on a budget who still want the reliability of an 80 PLUS certified unit.
- It lacks some premium features (such as modular cables or advanced cooling systems), but for users seeking a simple, cost-effective PSU, it is a reliable and practical option.
