Product overview

XPG introduced the PYLON Bronze-certified PSU family on July 30, 2020; this 450 W US SKU (PYLON450B-BKCUS) is the entry model in that series.

Positioned in the budget tier, it exists to power straightforward ATX systems at low cost. You get an 80 Plus Bronze, non‑modular design with a 120 mm FDB fan, one EPS 8‑pin and two PCIe 6+2‑pin leads. It follows Intel ATX12V v2.4 (not ATX 3.0/3.1) and has no native 12VHPWR, so it isn’t aimed at ATX 3.0 GPUs. Within a 450 W envelope it suits office PCs and entry gaming builds, backed by Japanese capacitors and a 5‑year warranty (3‑year if bought before January 2022).
