A consolidated list of Desktop PSU/SMPS (Power Supply Units/Switch-Mode Power Supplies) for comparison of different brands and models (the link to the list below opens to a shared Google Spreadsheet, no sign-in is required):
The main purpose of this database/table is to quickly and easily compare detailed specifications of numerous PSUs from different brands/models (not limited to models of a single brand which most manufacturer websites can only do). The table also offers filtering and sorting options, depending on the features one is looking for in a desktop PC power supply unit.
For example, one can filter the comparison to show only PSU models with Infineon MOSFETs, or, those PSUs with Half-Bridge or Full-Bridge topologies, or, those PSUs having 2x CPU 4+4pin connectors, or, one can filter and show only the models with stickers/labels of a certain color. One can also sort the filter or unfiltered table, say, the largest/smallest fan sizes, most/least number voltage or amperage on a certain rail, longest/shortest length, most/least number of SATA or Molex connectors, etc.
Photos of each PSU (product photo/box, side view with fan facing up, side view with fan facing down, rear or AC-side connector view, top or fan face view, and front or DC-side connectors view) are included and are also made to scale (1px : 2mm or 3mm) so that one can easily visualize how large or small the PSU is in relation to another PSU when compared side-by-side in terms of spatial clearance and aesthetics/looks.
References to various professional reviews and direct links to manufacturer's website are found at the far right end of the table for each PSU.
Specifications compared include the following:

It may take me a while to complete this whole list (am doing this on my free time), so, kindly check back for more updates (especially on some info not yet provided and other products not yet included). Thanks and hope these information helps a lot.
