Segotep GP600G Modular PSU

Segotep is a Chinese PC peripheral company that is making inroads in South East Asia. There seems to be an official store on Lazada as well as an Facebook page, altho the official website is still entirely in Chinese. While they are mostly known as a casing manufacturer, they also make power supplies as well, and in our labs today we have the Segotep GP600G modular power Supply
Black Box
The power supply comes in a matte black rectangular box. The GP600G is prominently featured in gold letterings all over the box, as well as an 80 Plus Gold logo. Note that there is no specs or features AT ALL on the box. Only the name and a link to Segotep’s official WeChat account.
Open Sesame!
Opening the box, we are greeted with the Segotep GP600G PSU inside a velvet like tie bag. Since this is a modular power supply, there is a second box that contains all the cables that you would connect the PSU with. We took out the PSU and upon closer inspection, we were surprised that it’s actually rated at 500W. With all the GP600G branding all over the box, we would have swore that this is a 600W PSU. Nope.

There is surprisingly a lot of modular selections for the GP600G modular PSU here. Included in the box are eight SATA connectors split into two cables, six molex connectors split into two cables, four eight pin GPU power connectors split into two cables, as well as two four pin motherboard power connectors and one 24 pin power connectors. All of them can be used simultaneously, altho we didn’t have the peripherals to test all of them out at once.

For the PSU itself, the build quality feels okay’ish. Instead of stickers, all the information are actually block printed on the PSU itself, which can be in danger of being rubbed off. A single 120mm fan at the bottom is included to keep the PSU cool. It’s quite silent during use so there’s that. The modular connections feel secure when in place, and yet easy enough to take out, which is a plus point for me.
Ignoring the rather sparse and non-informative packaging, the GP600G is quite a cheap PSU, especially for those that are looking for a modular solution. There are a lot of connectors, altho with this just being a 500 watt PSU, you certainly won’t be looking to connect a lot of peripherals to it.
