Apevia TFX-AP300W Standard Flex ATX 300W Power Supply - 115-230V AC, 1 x 20/24Pin Main Power, 1 x 12V(P4), 3 x Pheripheral, 3 x SATA, 1 x Floppy

I upgraded my Lenovo Intel i3 8100 90HV001MUS tower with an AMD Radeon w5500 card and knew going into it the OEM power supply would need to be upgraded. This is what I had to do to get this PSU to fit and function.You will need a ATX 24 pin to 10 pin adapter for the main connector. The two 4 pin to SATA power cables that are currently attached to the main board can be eliminated unless you plan to use the laptop style DVD-RW drive. If you do retain that cable.Only one of the 4 pin CPU cables from the new PSU will be used, and only 1 of them fits. It’s just barely long enough to snake under my GPU card and over to the CPU power point. Consider ordering short extension cable when you order the 24 to 10 pin adapter. I considered cutting and splicing to make it longer, I might still do that. For right now it works the way it is.You will need a 180 degree 6 pin GPU redirect adapter if you use the same card I did. There isn’t enough clearance to close the case and plug in the GPU power cable.The plastic mounting tray for the wireless card and NVME HDD interferes with the new PSU, its longer than the old PSU. If you have the M.2 sockets populated with a wireless card and NVME HDD you will need to 3D print (or figure out another solution) stand offs to use those cards. I found an STL file that works on Makerworld.com by a user named Cloverbio.Be prepared to get creative routing cables. There will be a lot of extra you won’t need. If it becomes an issue in the future I plan on opening the PSU up and desoldering cables I don’t need. If you can find a TFX PSU that has a modular cable system it would make your life easier in the long run.

I used this power supply for a little over a year. I ordered it on May 18th, and I probably got it installed easily before the end of that month with prime delivery and all. Well, I had this power supply running an i5 7600k, 8gb ram, and a gtx 1650. It ran this system awesome for a long time in my opinion. Today marks the day it has died. My HTPC with the above specs can no longer make it into windows with this power supply as it cuts off too early to load windows all the way(I'm using an NVMe drive, mind you). At first I was thinking "oh great, there goes my $150 gpu that now costs $300 thanks to scalpers". But everything is fine. I installed my spare 750w evga supernova I had laying around and the system works just fine again.This $30 cheapo power supply lasted me, what? a year a two months? 14 months of usage for only $30. I had ordered a noctua 80mm fan to replace the one in the power supply, when I had ordered it but I wanted to wait and see if the existing fan had any issues. It didn't seem to have any issues, honestly. Making a higher quality fan would make it last a bit longer(maybe if I had installed that noctua), but then that would drive up the price of the power supply. I think it's a bit too late for the fan installation now as the power supply is whining quite a bit.You really can't beat this psu for the price at all. Even the competing power supplies cost more than it would be to get this and a noctua fan. Noctua is even nice enough to give you a 3pin to 2pin conversion adapter so you don't have to route the fan's cable out of the psu.Also wanna point out that this power supplies fan was indeed the loudest in my computer at idle. CPU is running on a watercooler with a 120mmx40mmx45mm radiator(sometimes gotta do unique stuff with small cases) with three 40mm noctua fans constantly blasting it on full speed. The GTX 1650's fans did get much louder than the power supplies fan while gaming so it wasn't really a burden. Even while streaming the volume of whatever video would drown out the fan noise.If you're looking for a good power supply to get your sff pc up and running, this is the one. Sure, at this point I might get a higher quality power supply, but it sure was worth the 14 months that this $30 one worked.

Great product! Lasted for a long time

Great PSU for it's price, really small. Powers i5-12th gen, 5ssd. A good PSU for custom NAS

The Apevia PSU worked perfectly (nice and quiet too) and addressed the issue with the PC not powering on. The PC was really dusty inside after being used for years near the floor in a restaurant. I cleaned it thoroughly when the old PSU was removed. The restaurant owner told me the old PC runs faster than it did before (no doubt due to the CPU throttling down due to the heat build-up). As I recall, the original PSU was 150 watts. It's nice having a more powerful PSU although I doubt they will add components to this old machine that would require the extra power. Still, if the old one was borderline sufficient, the replacement will be more than sufficient. It's been about 3 months since installing the Apevia PSU. Given the heavy PC usage, I'm confident this PSU is up to the task and won't hesitate to shop Apevia in the future.Here's a portion of an email I sent to the person who asked me to find a replacement PSU that you might find useful..."What made the search difficult is trying to make sure the unit fit the case width reserved for the PSU. There are two metal standups placed 2.625 inches apart. If the PSU is wider, the PSU will not lie flat on the case bottom. Here are the Apevia PSU dimensions:80mm x 170mm x 62mm (3.23" x 6.75" x 2.5") - W x L x HThe unit actually sits sideways in the case with the fan on the side facing toward the inside of the case. As a result, the 2.5" height is actually the width and the 3.23 width is actually the height. As I mentioned, the case provides a width of 2.625 so it's about 1/8 inch wider, which should be close enough to accommodate the replacement PSU. The back of the PSU has the plug connector on the top left when the PSU is on its side. This matches the old PSU and where the case expects the plug to be located. Additionally, when the PSU is on its side, there is a screw hole at the top middle and two more on the bottom left and right. This also matches what the case needs.I only found 3 PSUs on Amazon that could fit the case. The Apevia was the only PSU that had only 4 and 5 stars. With any luck, the restaurant's PC will be working Thursday night. We just have to hope the issue is the PSU.The current PSU says FSP150-50GLT on it. This size PSU is referred to as a TFX (thin form factor) PSU."
