Choosing the best SFX PSU
Just because they’re smaller, it doesn’t mean SFX power supplies are any weaker than their full-sized ATX variants. Generally designed for more compact cases, it is possible to mount an SFX PSU with an adapter into an ATX case. Besides their physical size, they do the same job: provide your components power at whatever total wattage they need. It’s worth double-checking your case requirements because SFX power supplies are usually only ever selected for the tiniest builds.
Once you’ve decided on which PSU standard is best for your PC, you’ll be able to choose which is best for you. Our collection of the SFX styles is well suited for a small form factor PC, and there are plenty of other size choices when looking for the best power supply in general.
