The 400CX PSU from Corsair delivers premium features on a standard budget. This 400W PSU supports the latest ATX12V v2.2 standards. The unit is 80 Plus certified and has a 99% Active Power Factor Correction to ensure maximum efficiency.
The cables are extra long to work in the largest tower. They are fully sleeved for easy routing and bundling. There is a PCIe power connector so you can use one of today’s high powered video cards. There are also 6xSATA and 6xMolex connectors so you can connect multiple drives and peripherals.
Keeping it all cool is a variable speed 120mm fan. Air is vented through the hexagon mesh back panel. The universal input accepts voltages from 90-264 so you no longer have to worry if the switch was in the right position.

Corsair 400W PSU
- Pros: Unlike many other power supplies, this has a single 30 amp 12v Rail which eliminates any load balancing over different rails and will power a lot of components other PSUs (even with higher wattage ratings, Thermaltake 430W is a perfect example) will not. The efficiency, quality and price of Corsair PSUs is hard to beat. The heat and noise generated from this PSU is minimal due to high efficiency.
- Cons: None.
- Other Thoughts: This power supply carries a 3 year warranty. Just as a comparison, the other 7 PSUs Corsair carries come with a 5 year warranty. Also, after Corsair has revamped their website, the noise and efficiency charts that they had listed for power supplies were removed. I couldn't check the noise charts, but figured that it couldn't be any louder than a Corsair 450W that I purchased, and I was right. It's the quietest actively cooled part in the whole computer.
Seems to be working fine...
- Pros: PRICE, high amperage on 12V rail, sleeved, 80+ certified, 120mm fan, corsair quality! This is one H**L of a PSU for the price.
- Cons: None .
- Other Thoughts: This PSU is the newest in the corsair lineup, and is also the cheapest. It is a high-quality, attractive, efficient PSU. It looks incredible. Voltage looked like this in BIOS. 12V was measured at 12.30v, the 3.3V line was reading 3.32v, and the 5V line measured 5.04V!!!! Accuracy at its finest. The fan is quiet, the sleeving is top-notch, and there are PLENTY of connectors everywhere. I am totally pleased with my purchase. Right now it is running an extremely overclocked E2180, 2 hard drives, 1 optical, and a 8800GS video card. I have been torture testing all day, and everything seems rock stable. The only thing that is concerning me is that the PSU is kicking out a fair amount of heat. Part of this is because the PSU fan is closer to the CPU than my case exhaust is, so the PSU is pulling heat off of the CPU. But the chassis of the PSU is barely above room temp, so everything seem in order. Great PSU, BUY IT!!!!

Great Power Supply
- Pros: Love the wiring. It's the first power supply that I have bought that you can easily bundle and hide unused wires.
- Cons: Flat black but me likey.
- Other Thoughts: Replaced a 550 watt with this and it out performs the old one. I liked this one so much, I bought a 2nd one a few days later.
Best low-priced power supply
- Pros: I needed a quiet, high-quality power supply for an HTPC, and I knew Corsair had the best reviews in the business. I have not been disappointed.
- Cons: For my HTPC, modular cables would be nice, as my case is practically overflowing with unused cables from the 400CX, but I chose this highly-reviewed unit over lesser units that offered modular cables because I wanted the best quality.
- Other Thoughts: If you're not running high-end graphics cards or highly overclocked processors, I can't imagine why you'd get anything other than the 400CX. It's efficient, comes from the most reputable of manufacturers, and it's quiet. Much more expensive power supplies might be quieter, but in this price range, you can't beat the 400CX.
Excellent power supply
- Pros: Extremelly quiet! can't hear a thing from the fan. Very nice. Plenty of SATA power connecters and 6pin Video power connector is great to have.
- Cons: the only thing i wish this had was removable cable so i can take out the molex ones. but that is hardly a con for the wonderful model
- Other Thoughts: I've owned many corsair products over the years and this seems to be an excellent quality power supply. definitely the best i've owned ever. A++
