Today, we are looking at a unit from Fortron-Source Power, or FSP for short. Dubbed the Aurum Pro, this 1kW beast promises 80 Plus Gold efficiency in a unit that also performs well. Join yours truly and Izzy the Dog as we have a look at what this unit can do.
Thermaltake comes to us today with a real beast - a 1375 watt version of their Toughpower XT line of units. Boasting 80 Plus Gold level efficiency and semi modularity, this should turn out to be an impressive unit. Let's find out, shall we?
Cooler Master released the Cosmos Chassis what seems like so long ago, but it to this day is still a widely used and modified platform because of its huge size and great liquid cooling compatibility. We all knew it was only a matter of time before Cooler Master refreshed the line and gave us a new offering. Today we are going to take a look at that new offering, the Cooler Master Cosmos II. Read on to see what this chassis has to offer and why you want it!
Today we're having a look at the 550W version of beQuiet's newest Dark Power Pro series. This unit is semi-modular, advertised as 80 Plus Gold and, like other beQuiet units on the market, features a Silent Wings intake fan. How will it perform? Let's find out!
Not too long ago, I looked at my first unit from Maxpoint's Silver Power brand. A fanless unit built on a strong Seasonic platform, it came to my lab and immediately impressed. Now, we're going to look at one of Silver Power's fanned units; an 850 watt semi-modular model.
Not too long ago, I had a look at my very first Corsair case in the Obsidian Series 550D. That little guy turned out to be quite the fantastic little case. Now, it's big brother's turn... I have the 650D in the house, and I'm going to see how it measures up. With features like a four channel fan controller, a pair of 200mm cooling fans, and a SATA3 hard drive dock, it should be pretty impressive. We're going to find out how impressive right now.
It's finally happened... Antec has released a fully modular power supply. I for one, am pleased to see it, for this fully modular power supply happens to be the High Current Pro 1kW model. Which, by the way, is certified 80 Plus Platinum. Yes, folks, Antec saw what Seasonic has been doing lately and has decided to go for the throat. It's time to find out if Antec was successful in producing some competition for those units.
I've had a few interesting power supplies come through here that were fanless. The ability to power a system without making any noise at all is very appealing. But what about the rest of the computer? Streacom comes to us today with a case designed for mini ITX boards that is totally fanless with a built in passive CPU cooler. I'm looking forward to seeing what this case is all about.
We're not just all about power supplies here, at jonnyGURU.com. Once in a while, we like to take a break from the norm and look at something different, like a computer case. As coincidence would have it, Corsair has sent me just such a beast to look at today in the Obsidian 550D. This is a midtower case being targeted at the silent computing crowd.
