Performance

The UL certification number E311876 reveals that this PSU is made by IMPERVIO ELECTRONICS CO LTD, a big OEM manufacturer who also makes power supplies for OCZ for example.



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 well within the limit of the ATX specification. They are not exceptionally stable but sufficiently constant for everybody except the most demanding users (who will get a higher wattage model anyway).


The ripple voltage is about average with 21.0 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.
