  • Abstract:  I found that Antec\'s EarthWatts 500w power supply was a hidden gem. It has the appearance of a standard basic power supply, but its performance was very good. The EarthWatts doesn\'t have standout looks or special features, but it does was it was designed to do...

  • on each power supply weve tested, we should take a moment to note some general trends. With few exceptions, all the PSUs in this round-up are pretty good. In fact, only Cooler Masters 650W Real Power Pro failed to deliver tight voltage tolerances, a...

  • 80 PLUS® Certified efficiency, Excellent performance, Active PFC, Fully sleeved main power connector, Very high efficiency rating: PFC = 0.99, Extremely quiet operation, Excellent power regulation, Industrial grade components
