Exclamation News: THG Highend PSU Review

News: Tom's Hardware Guide Highend PSU Review

In the 400- to 449-Watt class, Zalman's ZM400A-APF is a solid power supply that really performs well. A definite plus is its low noise levels: At 27.5 db(A) at minimum load, the power supply is almost inaudible. The Fortron Source FSP400-60PFN is also worth a mention. The device offers excellent output scores and excellent features. What's more, this power supply scored the best efficiency rating in the test with 78%.

In the power-use class, the 450- to 520-Watt league, the THG lab technicians only arrived at one recommendation: the Antec True 480P, which produced the most power in the test. This power supply also delivers stable voltages on all lines and comes with a good equipment package. The Antec True 480P is the power supply we recommend for high demands, and is especially suited to extreme overclockers.

But they chickened out and didn't cook these. They are not real clear about what load they actually ran them at. At least there is a good features table at the end. That is what THG does best.
