#887 - Gigabyte Odin GT 800W Power Supply Video Review

"The Gigabyte Odin GT 800W Power Supply is unlike any other power supply on the market. This power supply comes with a USB connection which gets connected into any PC computer's USB port. The software that's included enables total control over the PSU at the click of a button. It displays current wattage usage for total wattage and peak wattage. It shows voltage and current information for all rails. It even gives the PSU fan and system fan speeds, along with PSU and system temperature information. There are a number of present modes for fan speed or you can choose a manual mode. There is also a voltage configuration area so the +12V, +5V and +3.3V rails can be decreased or increased depending on the application. Watch the video to find out more and check out the bloopers at the end." ~3dGameMan.com

@kidowner Ah, yeah I didnt see it was a response XD my bad

[mew905]

@2007FORLife I know, but the power consumption is out of this world LOL. My next card 100% is going to be the 5870 or better

@mew905 The Card Blows Hard dude, ATI > nVidia :L

@mew905 lol. not to be rude but if u read that was a response to a guy who didnt know why a cd would have been included with a psu

[mew905]

@2007FORLife I know this is almost a year after you posted but I find it so funny when nVidia just released the GTX 480, the card that sucks away 400 watts on its own.

@kidowner Just in case you never got your answer, its for the software to control it (remember that USB cable at the start of the vid?). You can use it to control fan speeds, voltage, view the diagnostics such as voltage and fan speeds, amperage, and temperatures from the temperature probes provided.

@TizHancock All the connectors on the PSU itself are identical, but the PCI-E plugs are colored.

[TizHancock]

are Peripheral and molex conectors the same?

[kidowner]

if you see the vid you see why there is the cd..
