Zalman zm-500-LE 500W

This is a 500W unit with 80+ efficiency certification and non-modular cabling. 500W covers mainstream builds with a modest GPU. It uses the ATX form factor — confirm your case lists ATX support. Skimping on the PSU is a false economy; better efficiency ratings usually mean better components and longer warranties.

Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current power supply prices across retailers. Zalman backs the product through its standard warranty channels; check the listing for region-specific terms. The full specification sheet below breaks out every listed detail, and the compatibility checker flags conflicts with parts already in your build.
