PC Power & Cooling are using the Adda AD1212HB-A71GL fan (120mm ball bearing), which we have seen used in several other quality power supply designs. They are using a partial plastic cover to specifically direct air towards the front of the power supply.
The power supply is based on a Seasonic branded design. It is exceptionally clean internally with careful attention to design detail.
The unit uses four Y capacitors, a single X capacitor and a coil. On the main board are two more ferrite coils, another X capacitor, two Y capacitors and an MOV. They are using a 105c rated Chemi Con capacitor for the primary side with the PWM/PFC controller offset to the left. We noticed other Chemi Con capacitors throughout the design, even on the modular board at the rear.
The cables are fully sleeved inside the chassis to help prevent fraying over time.

Very impressive. They get some reptuation when you speak to people. Id want a 750W though for futureproofing. I bought a cheap £20 meter and my system demands around 480Watts at socket. if I add another card it will rise even more.

White is different. I think NZXT do some units in white also, right?
Good design, but I agree 600W is the only viable option for an enthusiast gamer now I think. single card only…..

It actually shows how a very simple design, but using good quality parts can perform well. Sometimes the designers get carried away with the internal designs

Great design, and reasonably priced for what you get. 600W is pretty much borderline IMO today, especially if you wanted to power a FX 8150 processor from AMD !
