Arrow Seasonic Platinum Fanless 400W Review

Quote:
Seasonic is not just looking to freshen up their product offerings with only a bunch of new fanned power supplies with 80 Plus Platinum Certifications. They've decided to bring that kind of amazing efficiency and performance to the fanless side of things, too. Today, I'm looking at the 400 watt model in that new line of fanless units, and it promises to be spectacular indeed.

That platform just keeps coughing up excellent results. On the receptacle transient filter shot there looks like a piece of wire sticking out from the receptacle ground point, as that as a result of pulling the unit apart or was it in there from the beginning?

Ground wire for the shield. Not sure why that was added... it's not necessary.
