Default Corsair GS800 (new) Review @ KG

Some may argue that they could have done more with the fan or that it's ugly, but the electrical performance is good. Even if the 3.3v rail is slackin a bit in comparison to the other two.

Looks like a potential mid range destroyer. Just hope these won't be priced sky high.

The efficiency isn't exciting. But it's still semi-fanless anyway.

it's CWT PUQ series so its performance is quite good. Today had one on the test bench.

At 230V efficiency reaches 89.23% at 40% load.

That's annoying. PUC and PUQ both sound like "puck" in my head so now I'm going to get them confused.

Maybe I should call one of them "puke" instead? Probably PUC since I'm not a fan of dual transformers.

Sounds a little better than TT smart 750M.
