So we’re back doing PSU reviews. I couldn’t leave it for more than a week before I had another play with our shiny new oscilloscope could I? Today it’s the turn of the Thermaltake TR2 700w, a non modular, single 12v rail unit.

Today we have the 80 Plus Gold Certified High Current Pro 850w model attached to our PSU testing equipment to find out if it offers an attractive balance of price, performance and power for those who don't need to go over 1000w.

Der Netzteilriese Enermax ist bei PC-Enthusiasten sehr gut bekannt. Vor allem bei Netzteilen wird ihm Qualität nachgesagt, für die allerdings ein recht hoher Preis gezahlt werden muss. Nun hat sich die Enermax-Mutterfirma Coolergiant dazu entschlossen, auch günstigere Netzteile über die Niedrigpreismarke Lepa ins Rennen zu schicken. Lepa will Netzteile vertreiben, die qualitativ den Enermax-Stromspendern sehr ähnlich, gleichzeitig aber wesentlich günstiger sein sollen.

The last time we took a look at a power supply from OCZ, it was their top of the line ZX850 power supply. It featured just about everything you could ask for in a power supply, including superb performance, 100% modular cabling, 80Plus Gold efficiency and more. While the top of the line units are great for those who aren't on a budget, they certainly aren't for everyone. Today we are going to take a look at the opposite end of the spectrum, the ZS750.

Today on our test bench we have the TX750M, a new addition to the TX range of high performance PSUs from Corsair. Aesthetically it is similar to the rest of the TX range however this time round Corsair have reduced the number of hard wired cables and introduced modular sockets for wiring that may not be essential.

When I first saw the press release for the Dr.Power II, I thought that it gave the ability to get the power draw off certain lines. Well, let's just say it doesn't do that. Instead, the Dr.Power II is a power supply 'tester'. Of course, the sample came and as always, it's my job to cover it, so let's find out just how the Dr.Power II is when it comes to doing the task it has indeed been designed for. Looking at the Dr.Power II, it's a pretty simple looking device. The front has a screen that gives us the important information in regards to your power supply.

Since HardwareSecrets gave us all a beating on our PSU review practices a few years ago, many – including ourselves – have been reduced to doing Previews and Unboxings to keep ourselves honest; we didn’t have the equipment to do things properly, so we wern’t going to be false about it.

Après avoir déboulé avec succès dans le haut-de-gamme du refroidissement CPU grâce à sa gamme Dark Rock, be quiet! retente le coup sur un segment tarifaire un peu moins élevé, avec le Shadow Rock Pro SR1. Un radiateur plus simple en apparence, attendu pour 43€. Dans cette tranche, la concurrence est rude, et le nouveau venu est bien parti pour rester dans l'ombre.

Here at eTeknix, we take our PSU reviews very seriously! I have always considered the power supply to be the most important part of a PC, although it does not have a very glamorous job like a graphics card or CPU- it has an extremely important one. As you know, the power supply has to provide power to your components; however you may not know just how precise and accurate the power being supplied has to be. In short, if you start feeding components with poor quality power, the results will be either devastating or silent- as a bad power supply reduces the longevity of sensitive components. The results can also be dangerous to the user, which is something I hadn’t believed until a few days ago where I managed to give myself an electric shock by touching the chassis of a PC fitted with an ‘X-branded’ PSU, but that is a story for another time! We have also seen the explosive results of the infamous Hiper Type-R Power Supplies which were n otorious for going pop and taking many components with them.

As with any product though there is always room for an upgrade here, a tweak there and that is exactly what Enermax have done to create the Platimax range. Building on the excellent foundations of the MAXREVO design is a unit which is 80 Plus Platinum certified and today attached to our test rig we have the 1200w model.
