Noticed an error in the test system specs:
Page 3 Intel Core 2 Quad e6420 @ 2.1 GHz (1.25v)
Page 4 Processor Intel Core 2 Quad e6420 @ 3.4 GHz (1.475v)
Page 5 it magically transforms into Intel Core 2 Quad QX9650 @ 3.8 GHz (1.4625v)

Looks like a good PSU but a little expensive for me.

Looks to be solid and looks good. At least they wrapped the wires but they have a little ways to go before hitting the ideal market. Another con for me is its not modular. People are starting to really take more pride in their rigs and it sucks to have to tie up a bunch of cords that are not being used and find room for it out of sight. The outside looks to have the reflective black finish of the Ultra's. That's cool!

Slug bug, I used three different setups to test the PSU.

Look at the various motherboard tested. This was to create various levels of load. IT's not a typo it is working as intended.

Oops my bad. I guess I read the review too quickly.

Where can I get me one of those E6420 Quads? :smile:
