Ok, but why call it hydro.

In many parts of the world, renewable energy is produced by hydroelectric dams. It's associated with clean energy (yes, some people argue the point).

Such an association suggests for some then that a "hydro" PSU is more about clean delivery to your rig rather than wetness (think of that as you will).*

* Note: the excessive alliteration was unintended.

Either way, hydro is associated with water, the PSU has no association with it.

One can only assume they think after all this time the hydro moniker has garnered its own brand recognition. Obviously they are wrong.

130mm?
I thought my new 140mm PSU was small, that's *tiny* for a full spec PSU

They compare it to a 190mm PSU, my old 180mm corsair was just... too damn big.


Are they implying it's splash proof, if not waterproof?
