Activity Stream

No. Two group regulated PSUs from the same OEM are going to have a similar layout. But you're not taking into account ANY of the components...

That's the LED mechanism itself...it does not do well with excess heat/high temperature. The wattage (total heat generated, not the temperature of...

Some LED headlights generate so much heat they require active cooling. That's probably still less than the inferno of a typical halogen though. I...

Thanks for the detailed info! funny enough I turned the computer off trying to peek the fan model and could perfectly see it, then upon research...

Yep. It's the N1 that doesn't have a HS on the BR.

Not that it really makes a difference, but looks like a heatsink on the bridge to me; or is that something else?

W1 series. Ancient group regulated design that won't handle spikes from modern GPUs. Cheap sleeve bearing fan. Cheap caps. Short warranty.

Ok guys I got it, the PSU is bad, but could you share a bit more? Why is it? Lack certifications? Do you know this project based on another...

Which leads to another question... what if I freeze an electrolytic capacitor; I'm not interested in its functioning, but its survival. For example,...

Yeah, the unintended consequences of energy efficiency can be annoying. It used to be that driving with your head lights on worked in a blizzard....

I imagined the electrolyte would slow in response, and didn't know that about the MOSFETS; but since most electrolytic capacitors are good to -40°, I...

exactly

Sorry. I wouldn't use this thing to power a desk fan.

So, when I do our 0°C tests, I do find my ripple gets higher, voltage regulation gets worse, etc. So I can only imagine that below 0°C it gets even...

But the reviews would still be useful in a relative sense.

Bad idea, it isn't a good PSU. And certainly not a PSU you should use for a high-end game PC.

I used a local account but it does remember the key when installing windows. I was wondering if you update the BIOS does it delete your key. I...

Not at all, this is all very educational.

You must be thinking about the viability of using various off the shelf PC components to launch a mission to, say, Ceres. I've thought that one over...

Maybe I could help a bit I'd rate the MWE 550, Corsair TXM and Focus to be about the same. Just be careful not to pick MWE that has input of 230V...

I'm still trying to come to terms with the dislike for Comic Sans; for me it is an architect's script.

Thanks :)

Hello. I have recently changed SimpliSafe to Ajax. So, now I can truly recommend you to chose the second variant between the two of them. For me,...

Oh, this is very sad and unfair. To be honest, I don't care about the video either, I like flying.

It seemed to me that 2016 is so long ago, but the ideas still remain relevant. Even key figures don't change much. Although China used too harsh...

Looks like a flexible PCB board

Aww, yes... thank you very much for pointing out...

Comsvil is shithole, seems they are not willing to sell Corsair PSUs... IDK it's corsair policy or their decision but they do zero effort to promote...
