Bestec ATX Power Supply Specs

A power supply is an oft-underrated computer component, necessary in order to supply voltage to the various components of your system. The Bestec ATX power supply is best for older or budget computers (Pentium III or IV computers) with a single hard and optical drive using a relatively low-performance graphics card, as it does not have a incredibly high total power capacity.

Capacity

• The Bestec is a 300W power supply, meaning that at most, it can supply a combined total of 300 watts to all of your system components. Keep in mind that you should allocate for around 10 to 20 percent surplus when choosing a power supply, allowing the option to upgrade your system later.

Connectors

• The Bestec power supply contains a single 20-pin connector for ATX motherboards, another 12v connector for Pentium 4 systems, four IDE connectors for hard drives and optical drives, and two four-pin connectors for floppy drives, along with a single AUX connector for other hardware.

Dimensions

• The Bestec power supply is 6 inches wide, 3 1/2 inches tall, and 5 1/2 inches deep, making it suitable for mid and full ATX computer case arrangements.
