Enermax Fulmo GT review

You'll get 10 PCI expansion slots to play around with so you can house up-to four graphics cards in here, easily. At the top a 23cm (!) fan is pre-installed and at the rear a 14cm fan.
Inside the chassis you'll notice two small PCB's with fan connectors. This is the bottom one which also has a Molex connector next to the 3 and 2-pin connectors.
One is used to connect to the top PCB for additional connectors for fans. This is excellent for cable management. Location wise I would have preferred to have seen them located out of sight. But still, it works and yeah, you do have a fan controller AND wicked lighting with the three included Vegas fans.
Now if you don''t understand what Vegas fans are all about, have a peek here:
Please do understand that these are not the same fans, but within the same concept. The Fulmo GT fans have one color (Blue) but do have the six rather spectacular effects you see in the video.
Mounting a HDD is easy but requires tools. Take a drive bay bracket (has silicon inserts to prevent resonating noises from the HDD, use four screws and screw them in at the bottom side them in) and slide the unit into the drive bay until you hear a click.
We review and test the Fulmo GT. Enermax has been going very strong with their power supply and fans. For a while now they also offer PC cases, and more recently they released what seems to be the biggest chassis I've ever laid my hands on. This chassis series has HPTX support for the bigger than biggest motherboards and some pretty cool features as well.
Enermax KW001 Briskie Keyboard mouse combo review
Keyboard kits come in all sizes, shapes and forms .. and that's next to a gazillion of manufacturers that offers them. Surprisingly enough a few weeks ago Enermax, the guys behind the best power supplies and the brightest fans also launched a keyboard/mouse combo. Briskie is all about value and as such for 25 USD/EUR you get a mouse and what we think is a very decent wireless RF keyboard.
Enermax Platimax 850W power supply review
Enermax always is able surprise us, they now have released the Platimax power supplies, that means a platinum certification and yeah .. that boils down to a 94% efficient product. Very few products get this certification. Today we'll grab a couple of older older supplies and see if what they claim is true, can we really save on energy. We fire off three PSU's at a P55 / Core i7 870 based system setup with a GeForce GTX 590. We then monitor power consumption in idle, CPU productivity (stress) mode and then lock into a gaming session.
Enermax MaxRevo 1350W PSU review
The MaxRevo is 1350 Watt .. with peak power available up-to 1620 Watt, yummie. Interestingly enough this is a nice small sized power supply, you'll hardly hear it, has plenty of modular options, wwell read is all modular and is 80 PLUS Gold certified. That makes the modular cables based MaxRevo PSU series 88-94% efficient @ 20-100% load.
