Model overview based on user reviews
The Aerocool Value Value series offers a range of power supply units that are generally appreciated for their affordable price and quiet operation. Users have noted the reliability and quality build of the units, with some models like the 400W and 750W versions receiving positive feedback for their performance and ease of installation. However, there are concerns about certain models, particularly the VX series, which have been criticized for noise issues and inconsistent voltage under load. While some users find these units to be a decent budget option for basic computing needs, others caution against using them for gaming or high-performance tasks due to potential voltage instability and poor component quality. Overall, the Aerocool Value series is seen as a practical choice for those seeking a cost-effective power supply, provided that the specific model meets their requirements.

the unit is cut down to the point of being unrecognizable, lacking a basic 230V network "noise" filtering scheme. Instead, there are jumpers and a varistor on the board for backup (will protect against a single surge increase). The cooling system lacks a speed regulation circuit based on a thermistor; the fan always runs at maximum speed, creating noise similar to a vacuum cleaner. two high-voltage capacitors "MKX" at 200V 650MF (need to measure for compliance) Cooling fan from a good company (i.e., AeroCool makes only good fans) noise from the 230v network that has not been corrected through the filtering circuit from the film capacitor choke and the second choke enters the circuit with high bursts of capacitors, while the capacitors work for wear, the noise somehow gets onto your computer in some form and can cause premature wear of the capacitors on the motherboard swelling boiling rupture use Aerocool VX-500 more than year |
There is a huge risk of walking voltage on PC components. In my case, this was noticeable in the at2020usb + microphone. After replacing the power supply with a representative of another company and model, the problem disappeared. A year and a half later, the fan began to hum and creak. Requires lubrication. Worked stably Voltage walking on the PC, the fan began to buzz relatively quickly  Zuten: use Aerocool VX-500 more than year |
Noisy. But it’s not the fan and the throttle that make noise, and also the type of capacitor, I don’t know what it is, but the squeak is incredible and crackling. I do not recommend buying!!! No It was disappointing that such a defective product was put on the market for sale. use Aerocool VX-700 few months |

High efficiency
Aerocool VX-400 is one of the best low-cost power supplies in east european retail. Built on Andyson's robust electronics platform, which is 81 percent efficient, just a tiny bit short of the high energy efficiency standard of 80 PLUS.
Division into sublines
On the +12 V line, the VX-400 puts out 324 watts, that is, 81 percent of the rated power, which is average (90+ percent is considered good). Moreover, this line is divided into two sub-lines, which is why it will not work to power a very energy-hungry processor or video cards from it (one reinforced line is needed).
Powerful but noisy
You can connect a graphics card with one 6-pin connector to the Aerocool VX-400, that is, power consumption up to 150 watts. Fortunately, this is enough for modern low-cost and even some mid-range video cards. The disadvantage of the VX-400 is the relatively high fan noise under load — up to 31 dB. Fans of complete silence are better off looking for a more expensive model. In addition, only one 6-pin power connector will make it difficult to upgrade the graphics card in the future.
