Chieftec CSN-650C Alimentatore 650 W 20+4 pin ATX SFX Nero

The Chieftec CSN-650C 650 W is a fully-modular power supply unit for desktop PCs, delivering a maximum continuous output of 650 W. It is certified 80 PLUS Gold and rated for approximately 90% efficiency under typical loads, operating from an AC input range of 100–240 V and 47–63 Hz. The unit uses a 20+4 pin ATX motherboard power connector and is finished in black with an integrated 80 mm fan for thermal management. RoHS compliance is declared for material and hazardous-substance limits.

Advantages

The fully-modular cable design simplifies cable management and system assembly by allowing only required connectors to be attached, reducing internal clutter and improving airflow. 80 PLUS Gold certification and the stated 90% efficiency help reduce wasted energy and heat generation. The compact 80 mm fan provides targeted cooling for the PSU components while maintaining a compact overall footprint suitable for a wide range of enclosures. The 20+4 pin ATX connector ensures compatibility with standard motherboards.
