VIP SMPS or PSU Range – Best Indian SMPS Brand
If you are looking for a good SMPS in India then look no further than VIP. VIP is the name of the range of SMPS distributed by Kunhar Peripherals Pvt. Ltd, an Indian company. It was founded in 1992 and is headquartered in Mumbai. VIP Power Supply units are the best SMPS that you can find in India. In India SMPS are often neglected in India as people think that they do not play an important role in the computer but they do not know that they form the most important unit of your PC, so instead of getting a cheap SMPS or the SMPS bundled with your cabinet you must always invest in a good brand of SMPS for proper functioning, performance and safety of your computer components like motherboard, Processor, Graphics Card and others. VIP SMPS are available in Wattage ratings ranging from 400 Watt to 900 Watt.

hello Akshat what is dual 12V rails
a 12v rail is the main line or circuitry that supplies current to major components of pc like processor,motherboard,graphics card, HDD etc. A dual 12V rail means the smps has two 12V lines to balance the load just like dual core cpu.
and also what is Active Power
Factor Corrector
Active Power Factor Corrector is technical term in electronics that has detailed explanation and knowledge of electronics engineering
thank you Akshat
hi akshat pls tell me wat is the 12v ratings for vip gold 500w
my system is amd fx 6300 1tb hdd 4 gb ram mb gigabyte ads3
G.C GTX 650 ti boost 2gb zotac
pls tell me will psu handle my system i brought this psu because dealer was insisting me a lot for this one pls suggest me
i don’t exactly remember but i think it is 18A for single 12V rail,so total comes out to be 36A. you can look the 12V rating on the table printed on your smps for exact ratings. It will handle you system very well so don’t worry about it. if you have more queries please ask..
does the PSU uses both the rails in use making it a combined 36A as my G.C requires 24 A for the operation purpose
yes it uses both the rails for combined 36A if required by the component it it requires higher current. you will be fine as your card need the required current offered by your VIP 500 W SMPS. please ask if you any more doubts…
i have installed 2 fans in the system to make it cooler is it because of the cpu r wat its making noise or this noise is common in high end systems
more fans means more noise..it is normal if you have extra fans installed in your pc..so don’t worry
thanks a lot for spending time on answering my queries
so Akshat i read a table printed on my smps, mine is (500Watt Gold)
so im going to upgrade my GPU (graphic card ) to nvidia 650ti boost 2gb MSI or ASUS OC Edition .
so my question is this is my smps handle it ?
the GPU manufaturer says 6-pin power connecter require and i dont sure about Ampere (sry dont no sure word for A 😛 ) maybe gpu require it says 24A.
on the SMPS table print says +12V = Yellow = 18A+18A / 216W+216W
so this means a 6pin connector has a 3 yellow lines and 3 Black line cables.
so the 6pin connector is fulfill my card power hunger??
im confused about what u says to Sanil about both rails thing ; that means a 6pin connector 18A is combine to a 54A??????
and also one 4-pin connector is empty (mean not attach to anything) it has 2 black and 2 yellow cables.
please explain my queries.. THANK YOU
Your SMPS has dual 12V rails each of 18 Ampere, that means your combined current for 12V is 36 Ampere (18+18) and your card requirement is only 24A. This means your SMPS will be able to power your Graphics Card without any problem. Dual Rails are just to balance load like dual core processors. If the device Ampere requirements is more than it will draw power/current (Ampere) from another rail to balance the load. If you have any more queries or doubt feel free to ask.
thank you sir my specs are these
core i7 930 @2.8GHz
12gb DDR3 ram
1Tb HDD
and 3x 120MM and 1 80mm fans ( maybe on 5V molex connector) can i add 1 or 2 fan in future?
My friend told me u r power supply wont support for the card …
and also GPU card include PCI-Express power cable with two 3pin connector in to one 6pin connector…
so i dont need that connector right
i m good with my PSU’s 6-pin connector right?
just plug and go right..?
you need to power the card using the cable provided by plugging two 4 pin molex connector in the cable. If your smps already have that 6 pin connector for your graphics card then you need to insert that only in your card.
you can safely add 1 fan in the future.
Thank you very much sir
best wishes…
and Happy Diwali….
Hi sir,
I am a noob in smps, I built my gaming PC Config:
Core i5 3570k
Asus gtx 660 graphics
Asus p8z77 mobo
500GB hdd
So my question is will VIP 500 W gold psu can handle my config. I am very much confused and I can’t invest more money on psu… Your help will be appreciated…
Thanks in advance….
VIP 500 Watt SMPS will be enough for you.
I use pc for basic net surfing and some programming.. I you suggested and my manual recommends me to use 300W already.. But I’ve Mercury 280W smps (12yr old) and the other one is Intex 450W(brand New).. Which one should I use? Will 450W consume more electricity?
Use the Intex one for safety. It will not consume more electricity as the power consumption depends on the load of your computer.
What makes you say that VIP smps are the very best?? What about XPRO and Intex?
I have said that they are best in India i.e. Indian brand. I have tested them and have heard good things for them from many other trusted hardware sites. XPRO and Intex are among the worst.
At last I purchased Artis 400R Plus having Max Wattage of 310. I replaced Intex SMPS for ARTIS. Thanks for the support till purchase.
Great to know that.
What if I OC my graphic card and also my CPU, will my smps can take it… Graphic card can be OC to 1.25 ghz?
Smps is having two 12V 17Amp rails….
34 Amp (total) is enough for your PC configuration
Thank you so much sir, i really appreciate that u take out time to help other people that’s a really a big thing… My respect…. thank you once again… I’ll come with some more doubts, if u don’t mind….
You’re Welcome…you are always invited to ask your doubts anytime..
Can u post how to overclock i5 3570k using Asus p8z77-m motherboard…..
Frankly you don’t need to overclock i5 3570k as it already very fast processor. you can overclock your cpu simply by changing cpu multiplier / FSB frequency in your motherboard. i will be writing a detailed post on this so keep in touch with us.
who is the oem manufacturer for vip psu’s
they are distributed by Kunhar Peripherals Pvt Ltd but no info about the manufacturer
sir zebronics zebronics-450-watt-value-plus or vip VIP 400R Power Supply (SMPS) is good?
Never ever buy a zebronics smps. VIP 400R is a much better choice.
which is good brand psu in india with good service
? my computer specifications are
amd 64 athlon x2 processor
nvidia dedicated graphics
only single 160 gb hdd
1 gb ram installed
and also i have internal tv tuner card installed in pci slot
and my cpu is not powering for 1.5 hour after shutdown or power gets suddenly ? after that it will powering on if power gets off same problem plz helppp??????
i would advise you to get Corsair VS450 PSU for your configuration
What is the peak and continuous wattage of VIP 400.. Most of the smps write peak wattage and not continuous.
The continuous wattage depends on the efficiency of the SMPS.
What is Artis?? All VIP smps from Amazon are manufactured by Artis.
Artis and VIP are the same.
I am getting Artis and Intex cabinet and smps combo at same price.. I am going for Artis only as per your suggestion.. Thanks a lot
All VIP SMPS IMPORTED FROM CHINA
OTHER THING IS NO SERVICE CENTRE IN NORTH INDIA (Like Delhi)
also they are hard to find in north india
Yes but they are high quality SMPS and made as per specifications and quality control specified by Kunhar.
My desktop has a Vip 400R smps. As I have added many additional drives and components, I have to upgrade to around 600-700 watt smps. I am unable to get the Vip 750w smps anywhere. The vip 600w watt smps is available but I see that the smps fan does not point out towards the back like in the 400R and 750 but toward the motherboard/processor. I fear this will lead to exessive heat being genetated within the cabinet. Please advice as to what I should do and what other alternative is there. Thanks.
The larger 120mm fan is more efficient to take the heat away. It is an exhaust fan and it will not blow the air on your motherboard but it will take the hot the air out from the vents at the back side of your smps. So don’t worry and get the VIP 600W SMPS. If you have any more queries then feel free to ask.
my configuration
Intel i3 4150 3.5 ghz
Asus H97-plus motherboard
graphic asus nvidia gt730 4gb ddr3
RAM DDR3 2+2=4 GB
1 tb hhd
3 fan 1cpu and 2 Cabinet
my application is
3D max with Mental ray and v-rsy plugin
Autocad
Revit
photoshop
CorelDRAW X5
Stucad
and
Sketchup
For that application my configuration as above is ok or i need more RAM and Graphic card
My motherboard have 8 pin power connector for that which PSU i need to purchase and my budget is max 2500-3000 rs.
please help me
please suggest PSU and Cabinet for the same
VIP-gold is ok for that
You don’t need more RAM if you are on 32-bit Windows OS. If you are planning to go 64-bit OS then you need 4 GB more RAM i.e. 8 GB (Total). Also an entry level graphics card will help you a lot in your work which is mainly related with graphics intensive applications. For Graphics Card i would recommend Zotac Geforce GT730 1GB DDR5. It will cost you under Rs. 5k and for PSU i would recommend Corsair VS450, which will cost you at Rs. 2200/-. For Cabinet go for a Full size ATX cabinet with proper airflow if don’t have it already.
Thank u so much
What abt vip gold series PSU 500 W
And
Graphic card gt730 ddr3 2gb or ddr5 1 gb
Please explain the difference between the ddr3 and ddr5
VIP 500W Gold series is also good but its availability is a concern. If you can find it then you can use that also. For difference between DDR3 and DDR5 read this post https://www.akshatblog.com/difference-between-gddr5-vs-ddr3-vs-gddr3-vs-gddr4-ram/
I want to know that for my motherboard which graphic card is supporting ddr3 and ddr5 both or not
And if I want to buy a
2 gb ddr3 than which graphic card u prefer me…and why ?
Same for
2 gd ddr5 which gtu is good
My budget is 6000 7500 rs only as I alredy mentioned. …
Thank u for ur help sir
Your motherboard can support both versions of the graphics card as Graphics card RAM has nothing to do with motherboard compatibility. I would advice you to get Zotac Geforce GT730 1GB DDR5, because DDR5 is much faster than DDR3 and 1 GB RAM is more than enough for your work. It will cost you under Rs. 5000/-.
ZOTAC NVIDIA GT 730 2GB 2 GB DDR5 Graphics Card

Zotac is a very good brand of graphics cards. Zotac does not make GPU but they design the graphics card board layout and circuitry, the GPU is made by Nvidia only. Do not worry.
zotac geforce gt 730 2gb gddr5
is good for gaming ????
some of the blog said it is not good card for some reason please guide me on that
It is good for casual gaming but not high end gaming. If you want a good gaming card then you have to spend at least Rs. 10k. For your budget GT 730 is the best buy.

Go for VIP 400W Gold or Corsair VS450 for your PC. VIP 400r will not handle your load because it is just 280W and has low 12V rail current rating too.
Can VIP 500w gold handle my system.. I am getting VIP 500w smps

My spec. Intel e5300 2.6ghz 4gb ddr2 ram 500gb HDD writer galaxy gtx 750 graphic card can VIP 500w gold smps handle without any issue
Yes VIP 500 Watt Gold SMPS is enough for your PC.

Hi Akshat,
I am using R9 270x GPU which requires 500W and 24Amps on 12V (as I read online).
Would this one be sufficient??
http://www.ebay.in/itm/VIP-600W-Blocks-SMPS-600W-BILL-WAR-/181611234196?pt=IN_Computer_Components&hash=item2a48df8394
I was not able to find “Amps” of this model anywhere.
Thanks in advance 🙂
Not sure about the exact number but it certainly has more than 24A on 12V Rail. For another better option i would suggest you to go for Corsair VS550 that has 42A on 12V Rails and will cost you at around Rs. 3.3k.
Sir,I want to purchase a gaming pc.My processor is Amd fx 4300.This processor have 95 watt tdp.Is vip 500 gold psu good and reliable.
Yes you will be fine with VIP 500W Gold power supply for AMD FX 4300.
Sir My Confg are 4gb Ram(ADATA),1TB HDD(toshiba),Gigabyte 75 Chipset,Galaxy Nvidia 1gb ddr5 300W,process intel i3 3.3ghz,LG dvd burner, 3 fans (2 in+ 1out).Is VIP 400R enough for this,or can U suggest any other product of VIP?
VIP 400R is not enough for your configuration. You should either go for VIP 400W Gold or Corsair VS450 power supply.
Hi,
I’m looking for a SMPS for Intel Original Server Chassis SD5650DP.
Could you suggest a SMPS which can seat in the above mentioned chassis and support for twin CPU?
Thanks in advance.
Dhanraj
How much is your budget?

or suggest a gpu which will handled properly by my smps …just want a gpu for casual gaming
VIP 400R is not enough to run GTX 750 Ti. You should go for either VIP 400W Gold or Corsair Vs450 SMPS if you are planning to buy GTX 750 Ti or any other mid range graphics card. For enjoyable & good gaming experience GTX 750 Ti is a perfect choice.
My specs are :-
Vip 600w power supply
Amd fx6300processor
Msi 970 gaming motherboard
Msi r9 270x 4gb graphic card
Kingston hyperx fury 8gb ram
Seagate 1tb harddisk
Corsair carbide gaming spec 03 cabinet
Will 600w vip supply be sufficient for my build? Awaiting for reply
Regards,
Kunal kashikar
VIP 600W will be able handle your system. Personally from my side i would recommend you a better option which is Antec VP550P Power Supply.
i have vip 400r power supply
My System specs are:
intel core i3 3.1GHz
4gb ddr3 ram
500 gb sata hdd
gigabyte h61 series motherboard
I want to know if my power supply can support an amd ati radeon 6870 graphic card
No and you will need a good 500W SMPS for AMD Radeon HD 6870 Graphics Card. I advise you to get Corsair VS550 power supply for HD 6870.
ok thanks for the info
the cosair vs 550 power supply is out of my budget can u please suggest any other psu in the range of 1-1.5k
Unfortunately there are no good power supplies available in this range. The cheapest branded PSU that i can recommend in 450W-500W range is Corsair VS450 and it will cost you at Rs. 2.5k
i also have a nvidia gt 610,will it work with my vip 400r psu? As i am not into hardcore gaming the gt 610 will suffice for me.
For Nvidia GT 610 your VIP 400R PSU will be sufficient.
thank you!!
you are most welcome
thanks for ur advise
and also my system has presently which is gone bad i think zebronics zeb 400wplus ( 20+4 pin)
any good indian brand apart from corsair sir because i dont have that much money to spend
how much is your budget?
how much ampere it has you suggested corsair vs 450
Corsair VS450 has 34A on 12V rail
my budget is less 1000 inr
then the only good option is VIP 400R Plus power supply
i want to add graphic card (2gb) for above mentioned cpu whether VIP 400R Plus power supply sufficient to handle
please specify the graphics card model
ZOTAC NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 Synergy Edition 2 GB DDR3 Graphics Card
then VIP 400R can handle it.
dear sir
i am planning to purchase corsair vs450 as you advised.
But if any problem happened within this 3 year warranty i have checked there is no service information in their websites as well as service centre near my location my location is karwar
it is one disadvantage with some cities but i think you will not face any problems with good branded power supplies
dear sir
Do you know service centres in karnataka ?plzzz
sorry i don’t
sir my friend is planning to purchase desktop
ZOTAC NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 Synergy Edition 2 GB DDR3 and intel i7 or i5 processor, 500 gb hdd and dvd drive lg and Transcend 8 GB DDR3- then can i recommend which smps to them?
you can recommend Corsair VS450 or Cooler Master Thunder 450 Watt or VIP 400W Gold SMPS
Dear,
If using Corsair VS450 power supply in my cabinet . it’s fan locate inner side of the PC (motherboard) so how can it will flow the heat from inside to outside from the PC. any suggestion for this.
There are vents at the side of the smps where there is power slot and switch. the fan blows the air and the hot air comes out of the vents.
Hi am useing Vip 400R
Wanted to know can i use it to run my system 24/7 ? or more may be a week non stop ?
am useing i3 540
dth55tc motherboard with 8 Gb ram
500 gb hardisk 1 80cm fan ?
thank you..
I would say no to be on safe side. If you want a heavy duty SMPS and want to run your system 24×7 then go for VIP 400W Gold
but both are same it has 120mm fan and 12 rail extra that i do not need as am useing only a hardisk and mobo cpu? nothing else
is it worth the extra 1000 bucks as here its 2000 vip gold 400
yes it is worth the extra 1k
both are not same
I bought vip 400r plus smps Today but On the box Name Mention ARTIS VIP 400r plus.

All these brands are good but Antec is the best. I would recommend you to get Antec VP450P SMPS. Here is the link for you to buy it online http://www.amazon.in/Antec-VP450P-450W-Power-Supply/dp/B006TM8XPW/?tag=aksha0b-21

Don’t know the exact figure but it should be around 40A as I have seen VIP 500W SMPS which has 36A (combined) on 12V Rail
please can u help me,my configration is cor2due,dg31pr,250gb hdd and Dvd rw…i m canfuse for SMPS ?? Which one is good for pc..
How much is your budget for the SMPS?
my budget is 1k .
In 1k the best SMPS you can get it VIP 400R Plus. You can get it online at http://www.amazon.in/VIP-400R-Super-Silent-Supply/dp/B00S60IFHQ/?tag=aksha0b-21

Sorry.. You can get the details at http://www.artis.co.in/. Contact them at their phone and email

VIP 400R has 20A on 12 V rail.. Why do you still recommend this VIP SMPS above say UMAX 450W which has 25A on 12v rail.. ? You’ve clearly pointed before that it should be more than 30A
It is because of the quality of components used in VIP 400R as compared to UMAX and other cheap brands. Also the current output of VIP 400R is accurate as compared to UMAX and others. I only recommend VIP 400R as last resort for users who cannot extend their budget over Rs. 1000/- given that they have a pretty basic configuration without any graphics card.
Hellow i m using vip gold 600 watts smps from last one and a half year but last week my power supply was dead its in warranty so i gave it for service i got back but next day of collecting smps it again was dead again i went n again it was working fine and nw third time it happend again due to diwali was nt abke togive for servicing but just wanted to kw wat can b the prob of nt working continuosly
My pc poewer point has nt changed but still its giving problem
I bought ups so tht the problem dnt occure again as first time it may happen due to electicity problem in my areabut after tht it never happend again
I il b asking for replacement but wanted to kw what can b the problem of smps being dead again n again
In last two weeks this is the third time its been dead
Waiting for rply
Thankyou
Well it is hard to tell from here without looking at it but my guess is that its capacitors have gone weak. My advise is that you should buy yourself a new SMPS. I suggest Corsair VS550 for your PC.
Well as it is in warranty i il b asking for replacement n i il also buy a new n better smps in near future
Just wantetd to clear my dout tht can it b coz of earthing problem?
N wat can i do to prevent it
May be if the fan is not working properly. If it is in warranty then surely ask for replacement.
Sir, Please suggest a good smps for my old pc (2007-bought). My pc is having Mercury cabinet and its smps become unusable in the first year itself. Adjusted with a chinese smps of X-tec company. It also stopped working last day. No fan movement. My configuration is Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 @2.20 GHz, 3 GB DDR2 RAM, 80 GB HDD, 1 DVD Drive, Zebronics Motherboard(dont know model no) On board 128 MB video memory-Intel 82945g chipset. No graphics card. Plan to upgrade HDD and to 4 GB RAM. (Dream-plan to add graphics card of 2 GB if father provides money) 🙂 please provide shopping link(amazon) also. Vip is good or not ?. So suggest two types smps. Smps without graphics card and with.
For basic use without graphics card I suggest VIP 400R Plus SMPS (http://amzn.to/2f92nOA) and for PC with Graphic Card I suggest Corsair VS450 (http://amzn.to/2fAnYSy). My strong advise is to get Corsair VS450 SMPS only for future upgrades.
Sorry sir, I was not able to buy the smps you suggested. The computer shop fixed my pc with a Foxin smps ( fps 500s ). What i should do? Is it a good one? It says it has 24A on 12v rail. I had a external hdd(port is damaged). someone said that it can be converted to internal hdd.please demonstrate how to do it. will my foxin smps support it?
I also want to purchase a graphics card for my motherboard(ASUS Nvidia GeForce GT 710 2GB OR Gigabyte GeForce GV-N710D3-2GL 2GB) will my smps and motherboard(zebronics-donot know model no) support it? Which graphics card is good?
Sorry for being lengthy! waiting for your reply .
I do not recommend Foxin FPS 500 SMPS. Which port are you talking about for the external hard disk. Both cards will work on your motherboard if it has the PCI Express x16 slot. From these i recommend Gigabyte GeForce GV-N710D3-2GL 2GB because it has fan for cooling.
q6600 cpu 8 gb ram ddr 2 1333 mhz saphire r7 240 ddr5 1gb gpu can i use vip 400r plus for my system
Not but VIP 400W Gold would be fine.
Vip gold 500 will it be compatible with r7 260x graphics and fx -6300 processor.
Thanks in advance
Yes it will work.
Hello Akshay,
Thanks for your response.Actually I have assembled by own and working with this configuration 3years .But recently I am facing some issues . I am not able to figure out the problem whether it is the problem of smps or graphic card or motherboard.Recently one mechanic told it was the problem of IC of Asus and he charged me 1000 rs. My PC shuts down automatically in between and sometime CPU is on but nothing gets displayed on the screen.I have tried removing graphics and start the system still I am facing the same issue.
It would be really very helpful to me u can figure out something.Once again thanks in advance.
My system specification are below:
Asus m5a78l usb3 motherboard
Smps:Vip gold 500
Graphics :saphire raedon R7 260x ddr5
Processor fx-6300
Ram-4gb 1666 MHz
HDD 1tb
Do you get BSOD and monitor your CPU temperature and get back to me.
Yeah sometimes I get BSOD.how can I monitor my CPU temperature
Using CoreTemp or HWMonitor softwares.
hello Sir, I purchased a VIP Artis 400 C plus SMPS. Is it good? I have i3 processr, I do Basic PC use. No gaming etc…
Yes it is good enough for basic use.
Thank you
Hi Akshat,
I am using VIP Gold 600 watts PSU (8-10 years old) working perfectly with my Ryzen 3600 & H45 aio. Am planning to use psu for exhaust in my SFF build due to lack of exhaust fan. I measured on full load the exhaust from my aio is around 40 degree. Will the PSU be able to work reliably on 40 degree intake temperature? Is there any thermal protection in the PSU to check if my configuration will be safe when cpu is on full load? I have checked inside the PSU, the big capacitor is rated at max 85 degree celsius operation. Considering that the PSU exhaust is luke warm even on full cpu load, do you think it’s risky for a too old but perfectly working PSU to feed this much hot air. I think my entire system is maxing out at most 300 watts with GTx 1060 fluctuating between 25-50 % usage while video export. I can’t find any information on the safe operating temps for this particular PSU so thought you might be able to answer it.
Thank you
I think you should be fine and also good PSUs do come with thermal protection built-in.
Dear sir,
I am having DG31pr Motherboard . Pl suggest best powersupply for this Mbd.
With regards,
Kannan.k
What is your budget for the power supply?
