Super Flower Platinum King 650W PSU Review

The Super Flower Platinum King 650W is a capable power supply and as it is priced below £90 it will target a wide enthusiast audience.

While the appearance of the unit is unlikely to win any awards, it is a clean outward design. The plain black scheme means it will fit into any colour coordinated system build without being an eyesore.

Technically, the unit is solid. It falls within the top 10% of supplies we have tested at this capacity and doesn't exhibit any potentially worrying weakness. Load regulation is pretty good, and ripple suppression falls well within rated industry parameters.

Due to the high levels of efficiency and the large heatsinks inside, the large 120mm fan spins very slowly until the last 20-25% of load and will likely not be heard above 1 or 2 simple case fans. If you own a high end graphics card this power supply would make for a very cost effective, low noise shortlist option.

You can buy the Super Flower Platinum King 650 watt power supply from Overclockers UK for £87.95 inc vat HERE. At this price it is certainly deserving of some serious consideration.

Pros:

  • Technically a solid design.
  • Quiet.
  • Japanese Capacitors inside.
  • quality cabling.
  • 5 year warranty.
  • competitive pricing.

Cons:

  • not the most exciting design to look at.
  • 85C, not 105C rated capacitors.

KitGuru says: The Super Flower Platinum King 650W is a very capable, quiet power supply combining high levels of efficiency with low levels of heat and noise. At less than £90, it is deserving of a final shortlist for a new system build.

  3. It’s being platinum that pushes the price up but it’s not really a good fit for the market, I’d of thought that anyone willing to spend the extra on a Platinum PSU is going to be fine about paying a little extra for a modular version rather than as you say 90 quid for an old school non-modular model, This psu caught my eye on the website but as soon as I saw the cables I moved on and ended up with a gold rated modular model that was around the same price.

  4. it’s the best quality PSU, they make PSU for big brands.

  5. where can i buy or read the review of the 450w?
    please someone help me…… this version seems INEXISTENT
