Unfortunately abgeraucht

The power supply was installed with me in a ready-PC, I bought.
Unfortunately, I realized that the power supply is smoked after 4 months of use.
The power supply was also inspected by me. That is, it was opened and took a closer look. Sorry, no active filtering exists. With a power supply of 500 watt class an active filtering should be used in every case. Passive filtering is built up at most 200 watts. However, it is very doubtful whether the power supply really 500 watts combined power brings, or whether this value has been tested under the most favorable conditions by the manufacturer. At least, it is very obvious that more than 300 watts may be applied, otherwise more plugs would have been built. Unfortunately, I could not find this.

What remains interesting: The Passive PFC coil is absolutely cheap material. The plastic roll under the wire was slightly scorched, which also indicates absolute misconfiguration of the art.
In addition, far too few electrolytic capacitors are used for 500 watts. A more detailed specification could not be established because the capacitors were unbranded. The same applies to the board and the remaining components; except for the fans, but which also works even relatively quiet billgste materials has.

The problem with the power supply: Some say: super and the others say: absolute rubbish. It's a 50/50 game, if the power supply is going well or not. I certainly can not recommend anyone to buy this NT because of a power supply depends on the whole expensive hardware of the PC and cause a power supply failure in many cases major damage in the rest of PC.
