Performance

The UL certification number E322851 reveals that this PSU is made by IKONIK Technology.



Tested on: AMD Athlon64 FX-62 @ 2800 MHz, ABIT AT8, 2x 512 MB DDR400, WD Raptor 36 GB, Radeon X1900 XTX + Radeon X1900 XTX Crossfire

All voltages are stable, only the 3.3V line fluctuates a bit more than 12V and 5V. However, given that this is a 1200W PSU I would have expected a bit more stable voltages.


The ripple voltage is about average with 21.6 mV peak to peak.


For easier comparison between power supplies we put the (normalized) line regulation standard deviation into graphs.



Standard deviation is a statistical term, which tells how far away from the average the measurements are. In other words it's the average of the average. A large standard deviation indicates that the data points are far from the average and a small standard deviation indicates that they are close within the average. So the smaller the standard deviation is, the better the line regulation.
