Good for the price
For the price on a 550w you can't beat it. I took off a star because it took them 3 days before they shipped it and the box was pretty beat up when I got it but other than that. It works and hasn't exploded yet and was like $35 for 550w. Can't beat that price.

Bon produit de remplacement pour PSU, PC.
Les connecteurs d'alimentation 12V, ATX et PS2 peuvent être difficiles à séparer.

Inexpensive PSU that meets my general computing and light gaming needs
It's a fairly light unit with a very quiet blue led cooling fan. It arrived in excellent condition and was well packaged. Inside the box were 110 AC cable, the PSU, a bag with 4 screws for mounting the unit and some documentation. The bundled cables are all black but are not sleeved or in my opinion properly bundled presenting as a loose grouping of individual wires with only 2 zip ties installed to group each cable bundle . I placed a 4" zip tie every 3" to each cable bundle to prevent a rats nest of all the loose wires going every where within the build. It looks much neater now even in a case with minimal cable management capability such as the one I am using for this project, a Rosewill FBM-01 mini tower. I am still waiting for a FM2+ MoBo to arrive to finish putting together the project.I did, however, pretest this PSU with a power supply tester and all the output lines are working properly. I'll supply more info when the build is complete and fully burned in. For now everything seems OK so it looks like I won't have to send this PSU back to Amazon based on my preliminary testing.Here's the tester I use to pre-check PSU's I bought this after installing a dead PSU better a pre check than a disassembly.https://www.amazon.com/Computer-PC-Tester-Connectors-Enclosure/dp/B076CLNPPK/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2T0Q4ADFHBPOM&dchild=1&keywords=power+supply+tester+for+atx%2Fsata%2Fhdd&qid=1597075680&sprefix=power+supply+test%2Caps%2C228&sr=8-4EDITGot a FM-2 Mo-Bo and installed a A10-5700 APU and a Asus 750-TI with a 8GB set of Ram a 128GB TeamGroup SSD boot drive and a 500 GB Seagate data HDD. I also included a DVD burner as I have a stack of them to get rid of. I placed all of that in a Rosewill FBM-01 case, a little tight wo/ great cable management space but OK. The system has been running great since it was built on August 18th. As we have no issues for a full month from the build generally and specifically the Captain 550 PSU I am happy with the power supply performance thus far. If any issues arise in the future, although unexpected in this undemanding build, I will revisit my review.2nd edit. It's the end of October and the unit is still running just fine. No BSD's of shutoffs or any other janky behaviors. For my use as a secondary computer for internet surfing and light gaming it meets my needs. I wouldn't use it in a more demanding rig doing video editing or class "A" games. I use my Ryzen R9 3950 PC for that but this unit comes in handy for when I am rendering video projects or when I am having Lara Croft kick some butt. Perhaps this PSU could do it but why torture myself on a basic computer to see. Anyway if you are building a budget PC then it would probably meet your needs too.

Just what the pc ordered
Built a server computer using this power supply running 20 terabyte of storage a AMD Ryzen 7 and 64 gigs of ram wish it had more sata power then molex but I new that going in for the price and the job it will do it is worth a shot
