A good power supply is the heart of any PC. Typically for a budget build, you will want one with at least an 80Plus Bronze efficiency rating. GameMax is introducing its latest line of affordable bronze-rated PSUs this week, which are fully compliant with the ATX 3.1 specification.

While cheap with prices starting at just $49.99, these PSUs are not modular, so you will have to deal with hiding away some extra or unnecessary cables. If you are running a current-gen RTX graphics card, then you'll also want to opt for a 750W or 850W model, as these are the only ones featuring native 12V‑2×6 connectors. Internally, all of the new MAX PB PSUs use 100% Japanese capacitors from Rubycon, Nippon‑Chemicon and Nichicon, alongside pure copper output cables to improve conductivity and reduce power loss under sustained load.

Cooling is handled by a hydraulic‑bearing fan rated for 40,000 hours at 40°C, with smart temperature control to keep noise levels low. The MAX PB PSUs also include eight hardware protection features, including over‑power protection, under‑voltage protection, over‑temperature protection, over‑current protection, short‑circuit protection, no‑load protection, surge and inrush protection, and over‑voltage protection.

The GAMEMAX MAX PB‑Series will be available soon, with prices starting at $46.99 for the 550W model, rising to $49.99 for the 650W, $59.99 for the 750W, and $64.99 for the 850W. All models are backed by a 3-year warranty.
