Add 2 PSU is a relay module that will power on secondary PSUs when power is detected on the 4pin Molex. Basically this is an extremely safe way to control additional PSUs without modification.
The Smart Series is a new entry-level power supply series from Thermaltake, with the standard 80 Plus certification. Coming to replace the old Purepower and TR2 "standard" series, this new series features 430 W, 530 W, 630 W, and 730 W models, all with the standard 80 Plus certification. Let's see if the 630 W model is a good choice.
Technic3D hat das 550 Watt Netzteil aus der noch aktuellen be quiet! Dark Power Pro Serie im Test. Nach dem 650 Watt Modell muss sich nun der 550 Watt Vertreter auf dem Teststand behaupten. Ob ihm das ähnlich gut gelingt wie bereits beim größeren Modell, steht im nachfolgenden Artikel.
Tell you what -- first review of the year, and we got something good in our hands. Late last year, there were some particularly unique power supplies released into the market; such as the Seasonic Platinum and Cooler Master Silent Pro Hybrid. Obviously, as you can tell by my hyperlink, the latter was already covered by yours truly back in November 2011. What is unique about these power supplies boils down to the fact that both PSU's internal cooling fan can be shut off completely under relatively light loads. As a quiet PC enthusiast, this is like a gift from God himself -- fusing together a compromise-free solution by combining both power and silence into one single package. Unfortunately, it seems Satan had a hand in the Silent Pro Hybrid, because there is one problem with it: The fan control system goes bazerk sometimes. That's too bad. So what we have here at APH Networks this morning is yet another product of similar ideas, but claims to have superior execution. Firstly, the Seasonic Platinum, as its name suggests, is 80 Plus Platinum certified. Secondly, the fan can remain off until 30% load is reached, which translates to 300W for our 1000W unit. Considering how most PCs don't suck down 300W even under moderate loads, this is a very impressive and crucial figure. Therefore, without further delay, is the Seasonic Platinum 1000W a power supply from Heaven, pure and unadulterated? Read on to find out!
Let's see if this 600 W power supply from IN WIN with a DC-DC design for its +3.3 V output is a good buy.
Antec know that high end PSUs are not within the reach of everyone's budget though and so there are lower specification models in the family which have a more understated design with lower power rating and price. Today we have one of those models, the High Current Gamer 620w, attached to our test centre and will establish whether Antec have been able to maintain their high standards at the lower price point.
Wie bereits in den vorausgegangenen Jahren hat der Netzteilhersteller Be quiet auch dieses Jahr seine Netzteilserien Anfang Herbst erneuert. Natürlich gehört auch das Straight Power zu den Neuauflagen, das seit Oktober nun mit einem 80Plus Gold Zertifikat ausgezeichnet ist.
‘Holy Moly’. This is the PG version of the first words I said when we were offered the new 2000 watt Superflower power supply for analysis. Renowned and highly respected UK overclocker Ian ’8Pack’ Parry partnered up with SuperFlower for the creation of this new monster unit. The ’8 Pack Edition’ is a fully modular design, 80 Plus Platinum certified and ships with enough cables to choke Godzilla.
When OCZ bought PC Power & Cooling, the company said that PC Power & Cooling power supplies wouldn't have modular cabling systems. Well, scratch that. The latest release from the brand, the Silencer Mk III, features a modular cabling system and carries the 80 Plus Bronze certification, coming in 400 W, 500 W, and 600 W versions. Let's test the 600 W version and see if it is a good choice.
