ATX Power Supplies

The ATX power supply is specifically designed for small systems that include a limited amount of hardware. It provides slightly less continuous power and 4 voltage steps (+5V, +12V, -12V and +3.3V). For smaller systems, a power supply of this capacity is sufficient. sfx power supplies generally do not provide -5V, but this has little impact on current motherboards, after all -5V and the practical -5V ISA slot have been eliminated.

ATX power supplies are highly integrated
ATX main power connectors are the same as ATX, after all, they are compatible, so there is no need to worry about choosing an SFX power supply after worrying about motherboard incompatibility. However, due to the low number of SFX power supplies and their high level of integration, they are much more expensive than ATX power supplies.
