Reviews about the Turbo-Cool 860
 |
"The overall build quality of the Turbo-Cool 860 is excellent. The unit also features a healthy apportionment of relevant connectors that can be customized to a user’s specification if the user orders directly from PC Power & Cooling. This is a service and build feature that is, as yet, unmatched by any other vendor we have reviewed and certainly is worth some amount of price premium.Today we saw the Turbo-Cool 860 post efficiency numbers of 81.94% to 85.05% at 120v and 81.09% to 84.88% at 100v that can only be described as excellent. The PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 860 is a good power supply that does well in all our tests and everything about its build quality, voltage regulation, efficiency, and DC Output quality make us want to unabashedly recommend this unit."

"The build quality is again very good, as we have come to expect from PCP&C. The chosen components are all very high quality, such as the Hitachi capacitor. PCP&C states an MTBF of 200,000 hours, which is definitely a long time. Well-chosen components are also responsible for the good overall test results. The output stability of the 12V rail is very good, coming within 2% of regulation. Efficiency-wise, this power supply is one of the best we have seen.
At lower input voltages of 90VAC and 120VAC, this unit still reaches up to 84% and 85% efficiency, respectively - again good results. PCP&C earned our Gold Editors' Choice award with their Silencer 750 Quad last year; the 860W Turbo Cool looks to continue that legacy in 2008. We'll be looking at plenty of contenders, but at present PCP&C has set the bar quite high.

"The new PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 860W power supply was designed for both industry professionals and high-end gamers who demand the very best. The 860 demonstrated excellent efficiency, very good voltage regulation, and produced clean outputs. The Turbo-Cool 860 can deliver up to 64A (768W) of +12V continuous power at up to 50°C operating temperature and can support dual, high-end video cards with four PCI-E connectors. All this in a small chassis that will fit in virtually any ATX style case. The build quality of the Turbo-Cool 860W power supply is excellent and it is backed by PC Power & Cooling’s new 7-year warranty and legendary support. If you like to tweak things and are looking to fine tune your DC output voltages, the Turbo-Cool 860 allows some adjustment without providing too great a range that could inadvertently cause damage to your PC’s components.

"The PC Power & Cooling Turbo Cool 860W PSU is a very good power supply indeed. It handled all our power hungry components with no problems at all. This PSU is truely designed for the most demanding of enthusiasts. All the voltages arcoss the board were rock solid with very little fluctuations during heavy load.In my opinion, the PC Power & Cooling Turbo Cool 860W PSU is one of the best sub-1000W power supply we've tested to date."
