You will either love or hate the look of the Enermax Modu87+ 700W PSU, the intensely bright gold fan will certainly not be to everyone's taste. When combined with the blue heatsinks it really wouldn't have looked out of place as a Cylon weapon on Battlestar Galactica last year.
Technically however it is hard not to like the supply as it delivers some of the highest efficiency figures we have recorded to date, averaging well over 90 percent in the middle of the range. Just as importantly, voltage stability was also excellent, with the 12V rail holding steady no matter what load we told it to deliver. Ripple was also impressive, particularly the 5v rail which didn't shift at all throughout all of our stress testing over the last week.
The noise levels are also a point to consider as the unit manages to remain quiet throughout all of our testing, even when under full load. We also appreciate the bundle, as Enermax supply everything you will need, including a handy little storage pouch for keeping your cables tidy.
Now for the all important price point. Doing a quick check online we have found it for £145 on Scan which means it does cost a little more than the majority of supplies in this power category. That said, very few can match the Enermax unit for efficiency and if this, combined with low noise and excellent build quality are your primary purchase requirements then this should be top of your shortlist.
KitGuru says: Another very high quality unit from Enermax and it comes highly recommended by KitGuru.
