Review: **⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Artis 500W Super Silent PSU SMPS: A Silent Powerhouse That Exceeds Expectations!** I recently built a mid-range gaming PC and decided to try the **Artis 500W Super Silent PSU SMPS**—and wow, this unit has blown me away! From the moment I unboxed it, the quality was evident. The sleek design, robust build, and thoughtful packaging screamed professionalism. But let’s dive into why this PSU deserves every one of its five stars! --- ### **Silent Operation, Even Under Load! 🔇** The "Super Silent" claim isn’t just marketing fluff. The **12cm cooling fan** is a marvel. Even during intense gaming sessions (*Cyberpunk 2077 Ultra settings!*), the fan remains whisper-quiet. I’ve used other "silent" PSUs before, but none compare—this thing is *virtually inaudible* even at 80% load. The temperature-controlled fan ensures noise never spikes, making it perfect for my home theater setup too . --- ### **Rock-Solid Stability & Protections 🛡️** Reliability is non-negotiable for me, and Artis delivers. The **industrial-grade protections** (Over Voltage, Under Voltage, Short Circuit) give me peace of mind knowing my 1,28,113₹ GPU and CPU are safe. The **dual output coils** and stable 12V rails ensure consistent power delivery—no more random shutdowns or flickering lights during heavy tasks . --- ### **Perfect Compatibility & Cable Management 🖥️** This PSU is a **connector beast**! With **20+4-pin ATX, 4+4-pin EPS for CPUs, PCI-E 6+2-pin for GPUs, and four SATA ports**, it handled my RTX 4060 and Ryzen 5 7600X without breaking a sweat. The **longer DC cables** were a godsend for my PSU-bottom case setup, and the non-modular design didn’t clutter my build as much as I feared . --- ### **Efficiency That Saves Power & Money 💡** While it’s not 80 Plus certified, the **70% high-efficiency rating** is impressive for its price. My energy bills haven’t spiked, and the reduced heat output keeps my system cooler. The **<1W standby power consumption** is a cherry on top for eco-conscious builders like me . --- ### **Unbeatable Value & Warranty 🏆** At under $50 (post-discount!), this PSU punches way above its weight. The **3-year warranty** and **200,000-hour MTBF** (that’s 22+ years of continuous use!) show Artis stands by their product. Compared to my last PSU (which died after 18 months), this feels like a lifetime investment . --- ### **Minor Nitpicks? Barely!** If I *had* to critique something, I’d say a semi-modular design would’ve been nice. But for the price? This is nitpicking. --- **Final Verdict:** The Artis 500W Super Silent PSU SMPS is a **STEAL** for budget builders and silence enthusiasts. It’s reliable, efficient, and so quiet you’ll forget it’s there. Whether you’re gaming, streaming, or just browsing, this PSU is a **must-buy**. **Pro Tip:** Pair it with a surge protector(Example:Artis Surge Protector,If You Want Better Performance Pair the Artis 500 Watts Super Silent Psu Smps With Artis Surge Protector)for extra longevity—your components will thank you! --- **P.S.** Artis, if you’re reading this—please make a modular version next! 🙏
Review: I have been using the Artis 500-watt power supply for over 2 years now and I can confidently say that it has been a great investment. The power supply has been incredibly reliable and provides a steady stream of power to all of my computer's components. One of the things I love about this power supply is its build quality. It feels solid and durable, and the internal components are well-constructed. The 500-watt power output has been more than enough to handle all of my computer's components, including my graphics card and multiple storage drives, even when running heavy applications or gaming. Over the course of a year, I haven't experienced any issues with the power supply, it runs quietly and cool even under heavy loads. The power supply also has a high-efficiency rating which means it runs cooler and uses less power overall which is a big plus. In terms of value, the Artis 500-watt power supply is an excellent option. It is reasonably priced and offers the same quality of power output as power supplies which are much more expensive. The power supply also comes with all the necessary cables, including the main 24-pin cable, 8-pin cable, and 4/8-pin cables, which is a great added bonus. Overall, I highly recommend the Artis 500-watt power supply to anyone in need of a reliable and high-quality power supply. It has proven to be a dependable and efficient piece of equipment over the course of 2 years, and I expect it to continue to serve me well in the future.

This is my first Artis product. I have used both budget PSUs (like Frontech) and mid-range PSUs (I have two Corsairs, VS 550 and CV 650). I needed a budget PSU at around 450-500 watt range, with 6-pin PCIe connector. This PSU ticked all points. I am using this in my somewhat old Gaming rig (with i5 3470 and RX 6500 XT). The build quality is very good. One con is that it doesn't have any explicit Power On/Off switch. But it's not a deal breaker for me. since I always control Power from my UPS on/off switch and not from PSU. If you are looking for a budget but quality PSU at around 450/500 watt mark for budget gaming build, you can go with this.
