| Sirtec High Power Rock Solid 1200
watt Power Supply: Features |
|
| |
| The High Power Rock Solid PSU
includes a wide assortment of features. |
| It includes Active Power Factor
Correction (APFC) which helps regulate the power
fluctuations and also enables the Power Supply to work
with both US and European voltages without the need of
a voltage selector switch on the back. |
| Other voltage protection features
include OCP, OVP, UVP, SCP, OTP, and OPP.
Basically a bunch of features to ensure stable power
and short-circuit protection. |
| The PSU includes 2 fans, a 13.5 cm
fan on the top, and an 8cm fan at the
back. |
| The fans are quiet and we were unable
to hear them over the other fans in the
case. |
| The PSU includes a Fan off Delay
feature that leaves the Fans running for a bit, even
after the computer is shut down, in order to keep
things cool and protect delicate
components. |
| The Rock Solid series includes 4
separate 12 volt rails and should be able to supply
power to any conceivable current system. |
| |
| The PSU is rated at over 80%
efficiency. Other sites have reported it being
about 83% efficient, which is excellent. A high
level of efficiency is important as low levels of
efficiency generate more heat and waste significant
amounts of power. PSUs over 80% are
desired. |
| |
| The back of the box displays some of
the more notable features of the Rock Solid
PSU. |
 |
 |
 |
| |
| All cables, both native and modular,
are well sleeved in a black nylon mesh. |
| The amount of power this PSU can
supply is incredible. It ships with power
connectors allowing for up to 18 Drives, 2 Floppies, and 6
PCI Express video cards. Very
impressive. |
 |
| |
| The IDE power connectors use the new
EZ connect style and are a pleasure to work
with. Especially when compared to the older style which would often leave
indentations in ones fingers when they were being
removed. |
 |
| |
| The rear 8cm fan includes a dimpled,
golf-ball surface to increase the airflow. It is
a nice touch. |
 |
| |
|
The primary 13.5 cm fan is flush mounted into the PSU
housing and is indicative of a polished
design.
|
 |
| |
|
Included in the package is a nice manual, though with a
few Engrish mistakes, often found in hardware
documentation.
|
 |
|
|
|
A list of cable lengths is included. |
| We found the cables to be quite long
and of adequate length. |
 |
| |
| The brushed metal housing is quite
attractive and slightly reflective. |
