Nowadays computers draw more and more power. Especially when there is an Intel Pres(c)(h)ott CPU or nVidia's 6800 series videocard inside, to mention a few... And if you want to spice things up by overclocking, the power usage will grow exponentially... Thus a decent power supply is needed. For the last two months I've been collecting and testing power supplies. Thanks to the help of many shops and producers, I was able to test 14 PSU's. Including some flashy modded samples, some high power beasts, and even some fanless, passive cooled PSU's. First of all I want to apologize for the long time it took to finish all the tests, my setup broke down twice. Not due to PSU failures, rather, events better be best described as “end-user errors”; dropping a screw on a running A64 motherboard wasn't advisable, trying to remove it with metal pliers even less. 13 out of 14 PSU's were tested on the following setup:
The last PSU, from Silverstone was tested on a different setup, but this will be explained later on. And here you have a teaser picture, made somewhere halfway the tests:  How I tested the PSU’s Let me also explain how I tested. I have more than one model from certain brands. I covered each brand separately and dedicated one page per brand with brief data sheet only to include critical and interesting facts without chit-chat to get to the "meat". The short introduction became longer then I expected, so let's go directly to the FSP PSU's-->  More reviews in this category can be found below: |
