SILVERSTONE ST50F-ES 500W Power Supply
Cons:n/a

Pros:Good price vs quality.
Comment:
Silverstone makes quality parts - when PM, this PSU is a good value for a 80+ rating. Running a q9400 (quad) and a GTX 275 without issue.

Fantastic power supply for the price. Runs cool and quiet.Comes with plenty of cables for my video card/hard drives/etc.Unfortunately, first shipment was DOA - it was promptly replaced by NCIX and the new one has run flawlessly thus far.

SILVERSTONE ST50F-ES 500W Power Supply
Cons: none found yet

Pros: Silverstone is a solid brand
Comment:
Ever since reading SKYMTL's power supply rundowns that included silverstone PSUs which showed how well they performed, I have almost always gone with Silverstone PSUs as long as the price point isn't too outrageous.Putting together a semi-budget gaming build, this PSU fit the bill perfectly for the 125W amd quad core and single mid-range graphics card solution.I would definitely buy the PSU again if I were to build more similar machines.

SILVERSTONE ST50F-ES 500W Power Supply
Cons: none

Pros: Really good psu, quiet and stable
Comment:
Bought it for a small setup, for the price it's hard to beat, cable length are sufficient for any mid tower even if the psu is mounted at the bottom, i have assembled several computers in the past with various Silverstone psu and i never been unsatisfied with them and they are still running strong

SILVERSTONE ST50F-ES 500W Power Supply
Cons: none

Pros: Great PSU with a nice price tag.Quiet, stable power.
Comment:
If you're looking for a budget or smaller system without a super power hungry GPU, then this is a great deal. For 50-60$, can't get a better quality PSU in my opinion.

I used this power supply to build my HTPC. It is silent as I expected for a Silverstone. I used in a Silverstone case so the fit was perfect. Really well build.
