Photos


At the face of the box is a photo of the unit, with several bits of information here and there (warranty, maximum power, efficiency, etc.). On the back are no photos or schemes, just a list of features in several languages.


Only a bubble wrap protects the PSU. It would be nice to see foam spacers. The bundle is also basic, with just two cable ties and the required screws.


Your typical external design. The fan grille is not restrictive, which is good with mid and low-efficiency PSUs.


The power specifications table has been put one side—the other has the Kolink logo stamped into the chassis.


It is always nice to find black, flat cables used with affordable PSUs like this one.


Dimensions are normal since the OEM used the same chassis for all members of the line.


There aren't very many cables, so most users probably won't mind the lack of modularity.

Cables and Connectors

Captive Cables
DescriptionCable CountConnector Count (total)GaugeIn-cable Capacitors
ATX Connector 20+4 pin (500 mm)1118AWGNo
4+4 pin EPS12V (580 mm)1118AWGNo
6+2 pin PCIe (580 mm)1118AWGNo
SATA (520 mm+100 mm+100 mm)1318AWGNo
4-pin Molex (520 mm+100 mm)1218AWGNo


There is only a single PCIe connector, which makes sense since this is a low-capacity PSU. The number of peripheral connectors is satisfactory for a 350 W unit, and all cables are long enough. You won't install this PSU into a large chassis, after all, so I will let the short distance between peripheral connectors slide.
