Model overview based on user reviews  
The Aerocool Value Plus series offers a range of budget-friendly power supply units (PSUs) with varying wattages, from 350W to 800W, catering to different user needs. Reviews highlight the affordability and basic functionality of these PSUs, making them suitable for entry-level or office builds. However, there are significant concerns about reliability and safety, with multiple users reporting issues such as burnouts, noise, and insufficient protections. Some users experienced PSUs catching fire or damaging other components, while others found them to be stable and quiet under normal conditions. The PSUs generally perform well for low-power systems, but for more demanding setups, users recommend considering more reliable brands. Overall, the Aerocool Value Plus series is a cost-effective option for non-intensive use, but potential buyers should be cautious of its limitations and risks.

I took the most budgetary but not nn type 1st gamemax and so on in October 21, outside the window 23 it still works flawlessly, even after troubles with the wiring in the house it didn’t burn out, although it was most likely much less than 220v, though the system didn’t demanding i3 10100f + 750ti + 2x4ram

A good power supply, has been working for a long time and does not create any problems, and the voltage keeps well. It was not poorly assembled, though I checked the drawdowns only with software, but there is no multimeter, alas, and there are enough tests of this bp. Ordinary public servant

I bought it to replace the old Chiftek that died. Works in conjunction with Zeon, RX 580, a couple of drives and several turntables. So far I haven’t found any complaints about the operation, it works quietly, it doesn’t get hot at maximum load, it works quietly. The voltage often jumps at home, but so far there are no problems with the unit and components. It works fine, I don’t know what else to ask for, it does the job.

Upgrade Time

Due to the ratio of low price and acceptable quality, the original Aerocool Value power supply was a great success in assembling low-cost work, gaming or multimedia computers. The Plus version became a work on the bugs: the circuitry was partially redesigned, new connectors appeared, the quality of stabilization has decently increased, and the design has become more pleasant, which is rare in the low-cost segment. However the cooler has also become even louder and under peak load can produce 34 – 35 dB. Although the old one did not cross the line at 31 dB.

Efficiency 82%

In relation to the rating of the unit, the efficiency is 82%, which is only a little short of the high energy efficiency standard of 80 PLUS. A standard 20 + 8-pin connector is provided for powering the motherboard, an extended eight-pin 4 + 4-pin for powering the processor. Everything is in order here — compatibility problems are excluded.

Line limitation 12 V

Now it's time for an important clarification. The main power line of the unit is divided into two sub-lines and even despite the presence of 4 + 4 pins for powering the processor, the power supply unit is not able to receive more than 324 W via the 12 V line. Therefore, as mentioned at the beginning, this is an excellent option for economical assemblies and entry-level gaming machines in which the processor and graphics card consume less than 200 watts for two. If you try to put a conditional GTX 1660 SUPER and Core i5-9400 F here, the power will be back to back, and the power supply will always work for wear and tear and fail earlier than planned.
