Product Showcase

As you can see the PSU is partly modular. There area good number of old fashioned connectors. We'll peek at them more closely in a second.

The primary cables however are attached, thus the ATX power connector, and two sets of CPU connectors are attached.

As you can see, the product has a reasonably normal length for a model this powerful. It has a length of 18 cm - it's complete dimensions are 150mm x 86mm x 180mm.

At the top you'll stumble into a big yet silent enough, 140 mm. A silent Ong Hua fan fan (ball bearing). Again if opted, it stays deactivated until load reaches 350 Watt. Below that number, the fan will disable itself. The fan is model HA1425M12B-Z and has a 2000rpm maximum rating though it sits at 1400rpm under full load.

And check that out, that's nearly 62A on the single 12V rails alone, quite impressive. In theory this PSU could hold two GeForce GTX 680 cards or Radeon HD 7970 cards quite easily, and then you can still add a PhysX card and overclock, albeit that's pushing it a bit. A PSU in this class is intended for the people that have a lot of components and like to overclock. Then again, a PSU is the most efficient at half of it's load .. so if 350W is your efficiency target power cnsumption wise, this would make a lot of sense.

PC Power & Cooling MK III Silencer 1200 review
We review the PC Power and Cooling MK III Silencer 1200 Watt review from OCZ technology. The new Silencer Mk III series are all about being quiet, being awesome and very efficient and again, the PSU as tested today carries a Platinum certification. The new PSU also improved on the audibility front as it comes with a switch, enabled it and up-to 600 Watt (!) the fan will remain disabled and at that load your PSU merely lukewarm. The 1200W PSU is massive in performance, the one massive 99.5A 12-volts says it all really. Excellent for multi-GPU solutions and hardcore overclockers. The PSU is engineered with merely premium components, including Japanese 105°C capacitors and heavy-duty protection circuitries.

PC Power and Cooling Silencer MkII 750W PSU review
The new model PC Power & Cooling power supply is their Silencer Mk II series of PSU's. It's the 'bloke' PSU series again with a simple design, and hey -- nothing is modular so the PSU certainly is a squid inside your system with all the tentacles (wires), but yeah .. lots of you don't really care about cable management, they just want the best of the best and sure ...as you'll learn you can't really complain about the essence that is the Mk II Silence 750W power supply.
