As with many of their previous designs Thermaltake are using Channel Well Technology as their technology partner to help manufacture the XT supply.
It is a very similar design to the Corsair 950TX.
The primary area of the PSU features a high performance Nippon Chemi CON electrolytic capacitor which is rated at 400V, 680uF with an operating temperature of 105c.
The soldering throughout is of a very high standard indeed and very noticeable. The PWM controller is a CM6800G.
Voltage regulation for the lesser rails get power from the 12V line and these are controlled by APW7073 circuitry. Regulation is handled by dual configurations of ME70N03S and ME90N03.
Those of you who are observant will notice a single F3NK80Z and two IRFP460W switchers on the primary heatsink. Additionally the two DC to DC converter modules use solid polymer caps.
Hey, I bought one of these two weeks ago ! thankfully its not crap 🙂
Great review, I agree also on the noise, its really quiet and I have a pretty powerful system
I never understand half of the results in a PSU review, but it looks good. Its quite cheap which is surprising. normally we pay through the teeth for good products like this.
I love PSUs with single rails on 12v, they always perform so well. thorough review, thanks.
It seems out of stock in Europe in most places, high demand or limited availability?
The nearest competition to this is the Corsair unit and its considerably more expensive. this seems somewhat of a bargain side by side with it.
Just an update from my post last night – just ordered one for my new build. Hope its as good as you say.
We’re going to pull in the Corsair 750 HX for comparison at some stage. For now, on paper, it seems to perform remarkably similar – but for a lot less money.
