Silencer Mk III 400W
 |
"Starting from the efficiency which is pretty good especially at ultra low loads, also voltage regulation at +12V is very tight. With variations within 1% and on the low voltage rails it is not bad at all, especially for this class of PSU. In general I think that the small, new, Silencer is worthy of the legendary name of PC Power & Cooling with the performance is has displayed today. " |

"The claim that this unit can deliver its full power even at 50°C ambient is absolutely true since we conducted the full load test at 50.4°C and the PSU worked flawlessly. Finally at low-middle loads even at high ambient the fan is almost inaudible but at higher loads it makes its presence well felt. Such a price is very good for a modular 600W unit of this performance which is manufactured by Seasonic and uses quality components like Japan caps. Overall the PC Power & Cooling MK3S600 performed well and managed to work flawlessly even at very high ambient temperatures registering at the same time good efficiency (for its 80 PLUS certification) and ultra low ripple on all rails. The semi-modular design, the flat modular cables and the five year warranty are the cherry on top. " |

"Voltage regulation was excellent, with all positive voltages closer to their nominal values than necessary. The PC Power & Cooling Silencer Mk III 600 W provided extremely low ripple and noise levels during all tests. The new PC Power & Cooling Silencer Mk III 600 W is a very good unit. This unit is being sold for USD 90, but if you live in the United States, you can get a USD 20 mail-in rebate, making its final price USD 70, which is an outstanding price for this power supply. Also, at USD 90 it is still cheaper than its main competitors." |

"Everything is well within specification…clearly this power supply has superior +12V regulation. We did meet our 80 Plus Bronze expectations. All 105°C rated Chemi-Con capacitors are used, the unit is rated to run continuously up to 50°C and ran perfectly fine under our own 37°C conditions. Given the fact that this is a semi-modular power supply and is 80 Plus Bronze, that's a pretty decent price. Build quality was really good and this unit will easily out last the 5 year warranty provided by OCZ. Ripple's within spec and what we saw during the rise-time is within spec and would have no ill effect on your computer. " |

"Starting off with the build quality and design of the Silencer Mk3 we have a unit which delivers in all the important areas. Inside the quality remains high with branded, high spec components such as the 105°C Japanese capacitors. The stand out performance aspect is noise level though with this PSU remaining very quiet at all times. Added to this is a 5-year warranty which gives us confidence that the PSU will outlive the majority of components in our system.Those looking for a midrange PSU which offers good electrical performance and low noise operation need look no further than the Silencer Mk 3." |

"The PC Power & Cooling Silencer 760W is a power supply that delivers solid features and performance and does it in a sleek aesthetic as well. From a performance standpoint, it has excellent voltage regulation and noise suppression, easily handling everything we tossed at it, even when overloaded to 800W. With a single +12V rail and 62 Amps available here, you'll need a system with components worth a small fortune, along with an insanely insatiable appetitie for power and speed, just to make this unit stand up and take notice." |

"PC Power & Cooling's Silencer 760 W impressed me with its performance. I very scarcely encounter a PSU that manages to keep voltage regulation below 2% at all rails and on top of that passes the Advanced Transient Reponse tests. The latter tests were the Achilles' heel for much stronger and way more expensive PSUs but apparantly not for PC Power & Cooling's Silencer 760W. The Silencer 760W is a great PSU with high efficiency, low ripple, tight voltage regulation, lots of connectors, seven year warranty and a good price for what it has to offer." |

"The PC Power & Cooling Silencer 760W power supply demonstrated very good efficiency, excellent voltage regulation, and produced very clean outputs. The Silencer 760 can deliver up to 62A (744W) of +12V continuous power at up to 50°C operating temperature and can support dual, high-end video cards with four PCI-E connectors. The build quality of the 760 power supply is excellent and it is backed by PC Power & Cooling’s 7-year warranty and tech support." |

"The 760W Silencer is one of their products that shows they can perform well - even with a smaller fan. The PSU was pretty quiet throughout testing and was audible only after extended use at over 770W. During this process, the main voltage lines were very stable, emitted very low electrical noise and showed that the Silencer is a high-quality unit." |

"The PC Power & Cooling Silencer 760 W can really deliver its labeled wattage at high temperatures, passing our tests with flying colors. PC Power & Cooling hit bull’s eye with the new Silencer 760 W, it carries the same outstanding performance as the original models: efficiency between 84.9% and 87.8%, voltages within 3% of their nominal values and ultra-low noise and ripple levels. The cable configuration is perfect for a 760 W product. The great news is that this power supply comes at a terrific price (USD 130), significantly lower than the S12D’s when it was still being sold." |
