Mest stillegående PSU på max 500W?

[Lurifaksen]

Er på jakt etter en meget stillegående (men ikke vifteløs) PSU til en ganske ordinær Core i7 PC. Har altså overhode ikke behov for mer enn 500W.

 

Noen som har forslag?

 

Nexus Value 430 virker som det klart beste valget, men den er jo ikke mulig å få tak i i Norge. Av potensielle reklamasjonsårsaker vil jeg helst bestille fra Norge...

Under følger en håndfull tester:

 

 

 

Ultimate PC

I’ve got to say, that I personally was expecting it to be a silent power supply

unit as soon as we turned the unit on in our test system – and it was. This wa

simply down to the fact that Arctic Cooling constantly provide products which

are aimed to cool the most efficiently whilst making minimalist noise. I think

the design of the power supply unit with the fan on the outside attached with

vibration dampeners has really helped in keeping the fan virtually in-audible

due to the vibrations being absorbed by the rubber and not by the power

supply unit casing. I could not hear the power supply unit when we had it in

testing, and I did on occasion check to make sure that the fan was still

spinning and by putting my hand to feel if there was any airflow from the

Fusion 550R.

 

R&B Network

This PSU is VERY quiet, I can't hear it at all even after turning the videocard fan off. The buzz from the hardrive will always be louder than the fan on the power supply. It was not horrible either when it comes to electricity usage, without setup it idled at 145W and ran at 190W under load. This is about ~5W less than the Coolermaster we compared vs. The fan really made this thing silent and the stability was awesome. Even after longer gaming periods the PSU stayed cool and rock stable.

 

Xtreme Computing

The Arctic Cooling Fusion 550R is a great power supply and should be powerful enough for all but the most powerful of pc’s. Even if you don’t have a powerful pc but want some peace and quiet this could be the power supply for the job as it is VERY VERY quiet, to the point of being practically silent. Ideal for a media centre pc in that respect.

 

BCCHardware

The Arctic Cooling Fusion 550R 550W PSU is an interesting unit. It has a few innovative ideas - mainly the fan on the outside of the box that adds to the curb appeal. It appears to be very stable in terms of voltage as well as ripple and noise. In fact, it's probably one of the most stable PSUs we've tested around here.

 

HardwareBistro

The Fusion 550R PSU, a new and great product from Arctic Cooling. It was equips with the 80mm F8 Pro fan situated outside of the PSU housing to provide a quiet yet performance power to meet the enthusiast requirements. After all, the Fusion 550R is only peak at 550W. It might not be able to supply enough power to those powerful machine that running on high end processor and graphic card. Besides that, this PSU is fully sleeved, SLI and Crossfire ready. Nowadays, everyone is looking into silent yet performance PC hardware as no one could stand on those noisy fan noise produce from the hardware. Well, this Fusion 550R PSU from Arctic Cooling might be the one that you are looking for.

 

Dreamware Computers

The Arctic Cooling Fusion 550 has already found itself a nice home inside one of my systems here. I was left in awe at how quiet it performed considering the 80mm fan used for cooling - a method that is usually the opposite of quiet! It also gave me solid and steady performance as I would come to expect from any good quality power supply.

 

Anandtech

Our Silver Editors' Choice award goes to Arctic Cooling for their Fusion power supply. This is another very quiet power supply that still manages to deliver excellent cooling performance. The maximum efficiency is among the best in this roundup, reaching 88% efficiency at medium load and 85% efficiency at 20% load.

 

Driver Heaven

The Arctic Cooling Fusion 550R is a good quality, high performance product. It is very stable and well designed, delivering great performance and value to all kinds of users. The company does well on focusing the advertising around the efficiency of the Fusion, as the 550R truly is one of the most efficient units one could buy anywhere close to its price range. It is also a very quiet running PSU and will please anybody who is trying to build a silent system.

Ikke dum den!

 

Perfekt til min nye HTPC.

[Lurifaksen]

Glemte å skrive at jeg kjøpte den. Men helt fornøyd er jeg ikke - viften er ekstremt stillegående og alt, men den bråker likevel i form av "elektroniske" lyder... Dvs tydelige lyder når CPU/GPU etc jobber.

 

Jeg har kun SSD i systemet og trodde jeg skulle være kvitt lyden av harddisk som jobber, men denne strømforsyningen høres nesten ut som en harddisk som jobber når PC-en jobber.
