Etasis (ET850) - noen erfaringer? anbefalinger?

[royend]

Jeg ser etter en PSU som kan tåle XFX GF 8800GTX SLI, og fant en veldig interessant en i Etasis ET850.

 

Noen som har noen erfaringer med denne?

Evnt anbefalinger til et system som kjører 8800GTX SLI, hovedkort av 680i, prosessor E6600/E6700...

 

Et siste spørsmål angående PSUer:

Hvis jeg kjøper en PSU fra USA eller Asia, og denne da kommer med et amerikansk/asiatisk støpsel, kan jeg bruke en annen kabel som har norsk støpsel?

Er vel uansett 12V/3.3V alt går på til slutt?

www.jonnyguru.com sin test av silverstone 850Watt som er samme (produsert av etasis).

 

So now that that's all done, let's take a look at the scoring....

 

Performance (weight of 40%): So where does this PSU get a perfect 10 in the performance department? Voltage regulation? Check. Power factor? Check. Putting out what the label claims? Check. Holding up to high temperatures? Check. Ripple? Check. Noise? Check. Efficiency? Oh wait... 9.5 it is.

 

Aesthetics (weight of 10%) is 7. I know it looks the same as the ST75ZF that scored a 6.5 here, but because all of the PCI-e connectors are fixed and sleeved, I'm giving the ST85ZF another half point.

 

Value (weight of 30%): At just over $300, the ST85ZF is almost $90 more than the ST75ZF. $90 for 100 more watts. Seems like a lot of money, but when you consider other 800 to 850W PSU's on the market, the Coolmax CTG-850, the Enermax Galaxy 850W, KDM's 850W, all seem to be around the same price, and there really isn't a reliable 850W for any less, the value score is a 9.

 

Now for the functionality score (weight of 20%) As I mentioned, it's not modular, external or does any thing that really sets itself apart from any other power supply But the cables are plenty long enough, the unit isn't oversized despite being able to put out 850W, it comes with four PCI-e connectors and all of the connectors are labeled as to what 12V rail they're on, so I'm giving it an 8.5.

The Silverstone ST85ZF's final score is 9, so it receives a "jonnyGURU recommended"

 

SUMMARY:

 

The Silverstone Zeus ST85ZF is a great way to ensure you have enough power for quad SLI, quad core, or just to "future proof" your PC. The power is ample and the size compact. The connectors are plentiful and well labeled. In all seriousness, the only downfall of this power supply, aside from "personal preference" items like modular connectors and a shiny finish, is the power supply's mediocre efficiency.

 

The Good....

 

    *      Excellent voltage regulation

    *      SLI and Crossfire certified and capable of Quad-SLI

    *      Four PCI-e connectors

    *      Quiet

    *      Active Power Factor Correction

    *      12V rails labeled on each connector

 

The Bad....

 

    *      Nothing really bad to say

 

The Mediocre....

 

    *      Efficiency not as promised

    *      Plain looking

    *      Would like to see ALL of the cables sleeved

 

Totalt sett MEGET BRA - og etasis strømforsyniner holder normalt sett en meget høy byggekvalitet, MYE bedre enn de fleste andre.

 

Angående kjøp av PSU i utlandet - ja bare pass på at strømforsyningen støtter 220V, de fleste nå støtter "full range", men det finnes enda de som produseres spesielt for noen verdensdeler.
