Until someone can effectively convince me otherwise, I am not an environmentalist. Let me clarify before we begin that the probability of convincing me otherwise is zero, so please do not even try. And no, egging my house will not change my mind. I can assure you I will promptly dial 911. On the other hand, don't take me wrong and label me as someone who don't care about the environment -- I do and will continue to do my part in recycling and the such. It is just I am not about to go out of my way just to 'go green'. Admittedly, I drive an 8th generation Honda Civic, and routinely get over 40 US MPG on average with some hypermiling techniques. But I do that not because I want to protect the environment per se. I just happen to really like my wallet. You know, using less gas saves me money. I like that. And let's be honest here -- do you think companies actually reduce their product packaging out of the goodness of their own hearts to save the earth? No, they're just saving money on reduced packaging so they can make more money; at the same time advertise they are being green. Therefore, let's deal with it: This is called killing two birds with one stone. At this point, you may be wondering what my whole little rant on being environmental has to do with our OCZ ZX Series 850W article today. In fact, this has everything to do with it. The latest flagship in OCZ's line of computer power supplies is unsurprisingly another 80 Plus Gold certified unit, meaning it is at least 87%, 90%, 87% efficient at 20%, 50%, and 100% load, respectively. In fact, every power supply we have looked at since August last year were Gold certified. Other than saying this is a very 'green' power supply, for most computer enthusiasts, this means it is yet another high performance PSU built with top notch components inside. Being efficient also means less heat is generated for a quieter operation in conjunction with improved thermal management inside your chassis. Oh yeah, you get to save some electricity and reduce your next utility bill. The best of both worlds? Sounds like a winner to me. So whether you are someone who cares about the environment or want maximum performance, we opened up an OCZ ZX Series 850W power supply for our report today. Read on to see what we have found!

When we saw this ultra low-end iMicro PS-IM400WH power supply being sold for only USD 12, we couldn't help ourselves. We had to buy it and test it using the same standards we use for evaluating more expensive units. So, how will this bargain unit perform? Is it safe to use it? Let's check it out.

Most people know NZXT and their Gamer Cases. But in this review we will look at
something else from NZXT. Namely the NZXT HALE90 V2 1200 Watt PSU with a white finish
and modular cables.

NZXT is a well-known company which started off as a designer and manufacturer of cases. The company soon diversified into cooling and power related products. Today they offer two series of power supplies, the Hale82 and Hale90. As the name implies, each series has a different efficient rating. Each series is also split into subseries, three and two respectively, depending on the color of the unit and whether is of modular design or not. Today we are having a look at the 550W version of the Hale82V2.

It has been three quick summer months since our last PSU report, which happened to be on the Thermaltake Litepower 450W article written by yours truly back in June. The Thermaltake Litepower 450W that I've looked at is a budget oriented power supply. Although Thermaltake classified it as being 'green' and 'efficient', the price to performance ratio was a bit lacking; especially considering its $90 price tag.

The word 'lite' always had a negative connotation as a toned-down item or a lower end product. Some of us may even associate the 'cheap' with the word 'lite'. Even so, there has always been a need for value products in every market; as many people would prefer not to spend so maximum money on everything they buy.

Dernièrement, nous avons découvert la petite Venom Power 550 Watt d’Akasa, un bloc modulaire très intéressant à la puissance suffisante pour beaucoup de configurations. Mais pour des utilisateurs plus exigeants, Akasa propose également une version plus puissante en 750 Watt, que nous n'allons pas manquer de tester de suite.
