[yeoy2]

Will this power suply fit in a coolermaster cm advanced ii? thanks

[rmadace]

Hi, Rodney!

I'm sorry to tell you this, but before calling this a review, take a look at the power supplies reviews at jonnnyguru . com.

That's how a proper power supply review should look like.

Cheers!

Hi Rodney Reynolds!

[Kenster1025]

Hopefully it will get it's certifications quickly.

[daterapedrug]

Wow, i love you. I was looking for some one to tell me whats up to date in computer components.

[taflerud]

I bet you've just pre-recorded the "you need to know what rails are" part.

Sounds the same on every power supply video:P

[skylineaddict]

Wow, you're a genius.

[3DGAMEMAN]

Nope, I do it for every video. If you listen carefully you can tell.

[junkyjuice21]

the fan makes kind of an annoying clicking noise when it spins and is kind of loud, that could get annoying...

[3DGAMEMAN]

The fan does have a slight ticking noise, but remember how close the mic is in this video. In the real world it will be in your case and 2-4 feet away from you.

[traxxas908]

do you get to keep all the stuff you review

[Micieri]

you know something's wrong when your computer uses more power than a microwave :D

[skylineaddict]

You know you've got a monster of a computer when your microwave runs away from it.

[obek3]

do czego to

[pictochatters]

lol

"to" to jest to co ci daje prad do computera

[Gamerzlife]

after all your suggestions what power supply do you suggest? Lets say im making a gaming rig with a standard motherboard two videocards 2-5 fans, processor DDR2 ram and a couple of lights.

[DeadHand1992]

HTPC and SFF cases would NEVER use something like this rodney, SO STFU AND DONT SAY IT

[ams2990]

Sorry, what? You're telling me that I'm not allowed to have a high-end computer system in an HTPC case? Fail.

[3DGAMEMAN]

No kidding. And how about all the LAN SFF Cases? Most of those are fairly hardcore. Drop in a couple of GTX280 or 4870X2 video cards with a highly overclocked CPU and you will need a high wattage PSU.

[lundells1]

How Much???

[mexinator808]

i think he should give an idea of the price and if its worth the money

[prwnage93]

it gives prices on his website

[mexinator808]

oh i forgot about that, thanks ill check

[3DGAMEMAN]

I do, but this product has not hit mainstream computer stores yet.

[sikcnt]

I wish every review wasn't made with the same formula, for example do we have to hear the 12v rail explanation every time? I'd rather hear more specifics about what makes it better or worse than it's competition, what are it's pros/cons, etc

[etherealeyes]

i think its for people who search for this specific product. They probably dont know that he explains it on other videos because they havent seen them.

[3DGAMEMAN]

etherealeyes , That's exactly why.

[drunken88]

That would make it real review, of course Rodney doesn't want that.

[Ellista2k]

can u review the Ultra X3 1000-Watt Modular Power Supply next pls =D

[etherealeyes]

haha i just bought this.

nice, cool, modular, and getting a second 8800ultra. It has the cables for 3. It is certified for dual sli (at least for 8800 ultra) but not for 3-way. That doesnt mean it cant, its just not certified.

[kmi187]

What material is that table you use for the audio test of the fan? It would be better if you could detach it from it , since the microphone is on it as well. I think I've noticed vibrations coming through the table into the microphone. Making the fan sound louder on the video than it might actually be.

[3DGAMEMAN]

I use white acoustic foam under the mic to prevent this. If you hear a vibration it's in the fan.

[Cotton926]

grate revies hate ur site.

[3DGAMEMAN]

What doesn't you like, maybe we can fix or improve it?

[Cotton926]

the template. your work is very professional reviews and everything. you need a more professional looking website easier to navigate and attractive to the eye

[3DGAMEMAN]

My web guy was going to update it this year in celebration of the 1000th review, but he's was much to busy. It's planned, but not sure when it will get done. There is a lot of work to a total site transformation.

[Lvaneede]

Seems like a pretty good power supply but do the lowewr wattage models still have all these features?

[3lricofM3lnibon3]

His reviews on PSU's are getting better....I wish he would crack the case open and show us the heat sinks inside.

About the only other thing he can add is an oscilloscope of the power output showing the quality and quantity of the power.

[psp7677]

You do so many power supply videos.

[rainier1990]

damn it everytime when he make's a video about power supply's you get the crappy rail story STOP THAT !!!

[Kenster1025]

Well duh, he is making his video's user friendly, and you can always move the slider forward.

[3DGAMEMAN]

Kenster1025, 100% correct ;)

[skylineaddict]

99 amps!!! That's more than the single rail 90 amp PC Power and Cooling 1200W PSU

[NzNexus]

awsome review.. I think that even a 1000w psu is enough for a hardcore system.

I use an old 250 w psu and I got geforce gts 8800 that requires a 400 + psu but it runs stable so I'm glad.

[Foxontherun2]

lol, not for long it won't

[8SetMeFree8]

The name for the PSU is BEAST :P lol. Looks like that PSU performs as good as its name.

[CVRealMan]

WOOT Vulcans For the win

[Tjuga]

The LEDs looks kinda like a swastika :o

[D3MAK]

lol yeah now i see it too lol!

[hussainmushahid]

awesome supply!

[TigerSlashX]

AMAZING!

I will buy this psu if it has a warranty.

ledswitch

modular

1200W

4-6pins and 2-8pins

FUCK YES

but why is the 3.3 rail only 3.15

[chrintov]

that thing could power the freaking space shuttle! awesome tech... seem just a bit over the top, i just can't imagine a situation in which i would need 1200 watts

[Kenster1025]

Only for the best my friend, you would want one to if you had 3 GTX 280's.

[djdevil360]

lol

[jimador45]

He didnt say flavors this time lol

[boysinblack]

ULTRA hARD CORE

[wolf1isgood]
