Model overview based on user reviews  
The Gamemax GM Series power supplies offer a range of models with varying wattages, making them suitable for different needs. Users appreciate the affordable price and initial performance, especially for budget builds. However, several reviews highlight concerns about fan noise and durability, with some units experiencing issues like fan whistling or burning out over time. The design and packaging are generally well-received, but there are complaints about short and poorly placed cables. While the PSU might be adequate for basic or office setups, potential buyers should be cautious about its long-term reliability and consider alternatives if noise and component quality are critical factors.

I do not recommend buying this living block!
22 February 2018 
Bought a new one, worked for 1 month, and then the fan started whistling at ultrasonic levels so loudly that it was impossible to be in the room with it! Tried to lubricate the cooler myself, but it's completely sealed with plastic on both sides, and the fan itself seems non-removable, it’s encased with a metal cap instead of a retaining ring.
Garniy design of the living block and packaging + sockets for connecting cables.
Not a random cooler!

Such a problem is not only in me.
Price, not noisy in the robot
Having worked without straining for 4 months on an old PC, the block is dead.

normal model, nothing special

IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS SITE, A MODEL GM-500G IS NAMED, WHICH IS UNKNOWN WHETHER IT EXISTS AT ALL, AND THE LINKS TO STORES WHERE THIS UNIT IS SUPPOSEDLY AVAILABLE, LIKE MOYO, LEAD TO A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT GM-500B, WHICH IS EXACTLY THE ONE I HAVE, AND THE COOLING FAN IN IT IS BRIGHT RED, NOT GREEN AS IN THE IMAGES ON THIS SITE. TO VERIFY THIS, YOU CAN CHECK THE IMAGES ON MOYO. IT IS ALSO CLAIMED THAT IT HAS UP TO 5 SATA CONNECTORS, BUT ACTUALLY THERE ARE ONLY THREE, AND THEY ARE POORLY PLACED. DESPITE NUMEROUS DEFECTS, IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR PURCHASE "ESPECIALLY USED UNITS, BUT ONLY WITH INTACT SEALS" DUE TO THE 8-PIN CPU POWER CONNECTOR.
The most important thing is undoubtedly the 8-pin CPU power connector, which is rare in the five-hundred range of this price segment and allows you not to worry about compatibility with yet-to-be-released cutting-edge processors. Also, a pleasing black color. Not the unpleasant gray found in most cheap five-hundreds.
THE TALK WILL BE ABOUT THE FIVE HUNDRED. THERE ARE ONLY TWO CABLES FOR DISKS, ONE OF WHICH IS TOO SHORT, AND IN THE OTHER, THE SATA CONNECTORS ARE TOO CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. PARADOXICALLY, EVEN THE DIAMETER OF THE WIRES HAS BEEN SAVED ON, WHICH IS LESS THAN ALL POWER SUPPLY UNITS THAT HAVE EVER COME TO ME. THAT IS, LESS THAN 2MM EVEN WITH INSULATION, AND EVEN IN THE CHEAP 300-WATT ONES FROM OTHER FIRMS, THEY ARE MUCH THICKER. THE CONSEQUENCES OF USING THIN WIRES IN POWER SUPPLY UNITS ARE WELL KNOWN, SO I WON’T EXPLAIN THE CONSEQUENCES IN DETAIL. BESIDES, THE ANNOYING NOISE FROM THE FAN OF THE SAME UNIT ALMOST DIRECTLY DEPENDS ON THE POSITION OF THE UNIT AND IN MOST POSSIBLE POSITIONS IT WHINES. THERE ARE THREE SATA CONNECTORS AVAILABLE, TWO OF WHICH ARE TOO CLOSE TO EACH OTHER, CLEARLY INSUFFICIENT FOR A FIVE HUNDRED.
