The OCZ ZS Series 550W supply is finished in plain black with ‘sporty' blue stickers on the sides.
The fan on the new model is bigger than the previous version, scaling up from 120mm to 135mm. Surprisingly there is no OCZ badge in the middle however, which looks slightly unfinished.
The rear is vented to aid the airflow. There is a power connector and switch offset to the right.
As this is not a modular design, all the cabling is native to the supply. OCZ have a protective ring around the metal chassis to ensure the cable doesn't fray.
The unit is reasonably attractive, and will fit into any system build, without standing out like a sore thumb.
Product specifications are listed on a sticker at the top of the supply.

The +12V output can handle up to 38A, for 456W of the total output.
I like the appearance. decent results for the price. ideal for a second pc, or media center.
I like the price. I need a PSU for a media center and dont want to spend a fortune. Dont need any more than this wattage, as its a basic system.
550 will be more than enough for a 2500 with passively cooled 6 series card.
Good budget supply. decent design all round.
Well at least it has a power button. I bought an enermax PSU last month, and it doesnt have that. I was really pissed off. no reason not to have one.
Good price, good backup too from OCZ, their warranty system is great.
