It has been some time since I last looked at a Cooler Master power supply so I am interested to see what their latest GX III 850W unit brings to the table. This current model is a fully modular power supply with an 80 Plus Gold rating, with the 850W version on sale for £130 in the UK.
In their literature for the product, Cooler Master claim that this product offers a new structural design, improved airflow, and a ‘cleaner' overall look. In their words it is the ‘epitome of strength in elegance'. Interestingly their guides also claim that the heatsinks inside are anodic coated to reduce temperatures by 5c compared to a traditional heatsink. I don't think I have ever heard that before.
