Back in November 2008 we were lucky enough to get our hands on the Antec TruePower Quattro 850 Watt power supply for review. Today however, Antec have kindly sent us the 1000W model of the TruePower Quattro to add to the PSU roundup we’re currently conducting. Let’s see how it performs

So far we haven't had a good experience with most models from Huntkey. We've reviewed seven other models from this brand and only one, Titan 650 W - which was sold in the US as the first version of Rocketfish 700 W from Best Buy stores - survived our tests. Models from Huntkey Green Star, V-Power and Balance King series that we've reviewed to date all exploded during our tests. Let's see if this new 550 W model with a modular cabling system is a good product or if it is a piece of junk like the other models we've reviewed from this brand.

We take a look at our first non-enthusiast grade power supply from Be Quiet! and are please with the results of the Pure Power L8 500W.

Nowadays, it seems that most manufacturers have a subsidiary company, which brings them direct access to the retail market. Today we will be having a look at the new v.3 revision of the CMX 850W power supply by Cougar, the sister company of HEC/Compucase, one of the oldest manufacturers of power supply units. This is our second encounter with their products, after our review of the basic PowerX 550W several months ago which, although it did not set any performance records, its value-to-performance ratio was very good.

In the past, Cooler Master's power supply offerings have showcased features such as high efficiency and silent performance. With their new GX (Gamer Xtreme) line, they hope to combine these features into one high power, super stable product. Today, we have for review Cooler Master's new GX 750W PSU.

Most of our readers are very familiar with PC Power & Cooling, so we will skip right to the chase with their latest product. PC Power & Cooling has yet again revamped the Silencer series of power supplies that has become almost infamous for their performance, reliability and low cost.
One of the first things that you will notice is that this unit only has a single 46A 12V rail. It is becoming rare to find a power supply that isn't capable for outputting 99% or more of its power on the 12V rail, but here we have one. What it lacks in 12V output, it makes up for on the minor rails. Both the 3.3V and 12V rails are capable of 24A each with a combined maximum output of 130W. This is more juice on the minor rails than even the recently reviewed XFX ProSeries 1000W PSU. Total combined continuous output is 600W.

Nach der Einführung des Straight Power E9 Ende letzten Jahres folgt nun auch das Update der High-End-Serie Dark Power PRO. Mit dem Dark Power PRO 10 zeigt be quiet! die konsequente Weiterentwicklung des P9, das bereits mit der 80Plus Gold Zertifizierung ausgestattet war. Trotzdem überrascht be quiet! bei dem neuen Modell mit einigen technischen Feinheiten und auch Änderungen am Design. Die Modellpalette reicht vom Einstiegsmodell mit 550W bis hin zum Topmodell mit 1200W Leistung. Letzteres hat be quiet! gemeinsam mit dem 1000W Modell zuletzt in der P8-Serie aktualisiert. Eine Besonderheit finden wir mit dem 850W Modell der neuen Produktpalette, das sogar das 80Plus Platin Zertifikat erhalten hat.

The new GreenMe power supply series from In Win will arrive on the market in June, in 550 W, 650 W, and 750 W versions, all with the 80 Plus Bronze certification. In a very different move, In Win committed to donate USD 1.00 to the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) for every GreenMe unit sold. Let's see if the 750 W model will be a good buy.

In the beginning of this year, FSP launched its 80 Plus Gold power supply series, dubbed Aurum Gold series (which is a redundant name, by the way, since Aurum means "Gold" in Latin; calling something "Gold Gold" makes no sense). With models ranging from 400 W to 700 W, this series surprised everybody with its incredible low price, thanks to the unusual electronic architecture used. FSP is now launching another series based on the same design, featuring a modular cabling system and offered in 550 W, 650 W and 750 W versions. The first version won't be available in North America, but the other two should arrive in the North American market by the end of this month. Let's see if the 750 W model is a good buy.

The new SiverStone Strider Gold Evolution series of power supplies is comprised of 750 W, 850 W, 1,000 W, and 1,200 W models, all featuring the 80 Plus Gold certification, a removable air filter for the fan, and a full modular cabling system, meaning that even the main motherboard cable is detachable. Let's see if the 750 W model is a good option.
