Product reviews are typically a welcome nugget of knowledge when trying to make a critical purchasing decision, but we’d probably succumb to just picking a power supply at random before actually wading through 105 reviews to find out which one was king. While this could all very well be a completely impractical prank, St?phane Charpentier of France’s MatBe has apparently put just over one hundred PSUs on the testing bench in order to find out which is worth your cash, and he went through a variety of flavors and wattages to make sure the very one you were eying was thoughtfully included. Without getting into specifics, Akasa’s Power80+ took home the gold in the nonmodular category, Antec’s Neo HE notched first place in the modular realm, the Fortron Zen won in the fanless arena, Cooler Master’s Real Power Pro ruled the “powerful” division, and Antec’s Earthwatts proved the most “valuable.” Of course, there’s a good bit of detail surrounding the 100 other losers in the crowd, so if you’re down with skimming through 140 pages of PSU reviews, the read link awaits your attention.Read the review
