Description
The SuperFlower BRONZE KING II SF-500C14HE is engineered to deliver consistent 500W output with an 80 PLUS Bronze efficiency rating, ensuring up to 85% energy conversion at typical loads. Built with a focus on longevity and safety, this ATX power supply incorporates Active Power Factor Correction (APFC) and a full-range 100V-240V design to handle fluctuating electrical environments. Its 140mm depth makes it compatible with a wide range of chassis, while the 120mm silent fan maintains optimal thermal performance without excessive noise.
This product is for:
- Budget-conscious gamers building systems with mid-range GPUs like the RTX 4060 or RX 7600.
- Home and office users requiring a stable power source for 24/7 productivity and multi-core processing.
- System integrators looking for a reliable, standardized component with a proven 5-year warranty track record.
- PC builders prioritizing clean cable management through the use of flexible, flat ribbon cables.
- Environmentally conscious users seeking compliance with Energy Star and EuP (Energy-using Products) standards.

Installing the BRONZE KING II is streamlined by its fixed, flat black cable design, which reduces clutter and improves internal airflow compared to traditional sleeved cables. During operation, the 120mm fan remains unobtrusive, even under heavy load, making it suitable for quiet workspace environments. The inclusion of dual 6+2 pin PCIe connectors ensures compatibility with most modern graphics cards without the need for adapters, while the 600mm main cables provide ample reach for bottom-mount PSU cases.
Compared to entry-level non-certified power supplies, the BRONZE KING II offers significantly better thermal efficiency and lower electricity costs due to its 80 PLUS Bronze rating. While it lacks the modularity of the Leadex series, it provides the same core protection circuits and voltage stability at a more accessible price point. It is a superior choice for 500W requirements over generic units, offering a 5-year warranty that exceeds the industry standard for budget-tier power supplies.
Q&A:
- Is 500W sufficient for a modern gaming PC? Yes, it comfortably powers builds featuring mid-range CPUs and GPUs with a total system draw under 400W.
- Does this PSU support the latest Intel and AMD motherboards? Yes, it is compliant with SSI EPS 12V v2.92 specifications and includes the necessary 4+4 pin CPU power connector.
- What are the benefits of the flat cable design? Flat cables are more flexible and thinner than sleeved bundles, making them easier to route behind motherboard trays for a cleaner build.
- Can this unit handle voltage drops? Yes, the Active PFC and full-range voltage design (100V-240V) allow it to operate stably even during minor power fluctuations.
- What safety certifications does it hold? It is certified by BSMI (R33529), CB, and RoHS, ensuring it meets strict safety and environmental regulations.
