Is BTX even still a thing?
I don't get the logic behind certain product names, honestly.
The only real benefit is the GPU does not heat up the CPU or ram.
Edit:
Sorry man, I quoted the wrong guy :)
I want to see an efficiency curve for the output Wattage in the range of 1 to 100 Watts. Most psu are rubbish in that section
So, this is the second announcement in a short period of time, which is not Leadex. Now you guys can rest assured. :D
P.S.: Who knows, maybe this is just a prelude for the "Thermalright" level of SKU flooding.
*FYI, they have a Zillion bronze series that never brought to the NA or Europe
Here's another way to look at the efficiency curve. If you try to draw the output power vs. input power curve, it's very close to linear. It just doesn't go through the (0, 0) point. Rather, the line can be expressed as:
output power = (input power - idle consumption) × efficiency
My primitive curve fitting from available data of two very different PSUs shows that:
- the 1300 W Lian Li PSU (data here) has an efficiency of 93%-94% and an idle consumption of 5 W between 5% and ~70% load.
- the 750 W be quiet! PSU (data here) has an efficiency of 87%-91% and an idle consumption of 6 W between 3% and ~80% load.
The line could probably be interpolated and extrapolated to other low wattages but more data would be very welcome here. Not really at 1 W but certainly at 20-30-40 W or so, which is what a modest PC draws when it's idle.
So, if you put up with that idle power of your PSU, which you have no way to change, you can say that the efficiency is close to constant at all wattages.
