Today SilverStone delivers not one but two new power supplies to our testing gauntlet and promises the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and quality. These fully modular single rail 1000W and 850W units also sport SilverStone Air Penetrator fans along with included magnetically installed 140mm FF141 fan filters.
SilverStone is back on our test bench today with a fully silent and fanless 500 watt computer power supply that is making some very impressive "Silver" efficiency claims. Beyond that, terms like "noiseless," "dusty environments," and "mission-critical" are thrown around. Now to figure out what a "Nightjar" is.
SilverStone raises its flagship Strider PSU to what is the near-limit of wattage you can pull out a normal North American wall plug. At 1500 watts continuous and 1600 watts peak this power supply will hopefully get the job done for you. Let's see how it holds up under full load.
SilverStone promises higher efficiencies, lower exhaust temperatures, and silent operation in the difficult 700 watt computer power supply market with its Element 700W PSU. SilverStone has awed us in the past, but does the company known for some of the best quiet PSUs pull it off with this Element.
Silverstone is certainly no slouch when it comes to high end power supplies. HardOCP has been using its PSUs for quite a while with great success. Let's see what two of its best 1000 watt units has to offer.
SilverStone updates its mainstream Strider ST400 computer power supply. Last time SilverStone failed our low voltage test, critical in the USA. We find out whether or not this new version is up to our quality standards.
SilverStone Technologies has built an incredibly solid name in the power supply business in just a few years. Today we take one of their flagship 1000 watt units for a spin and see how it fares in our 45C incubator fully loaded. Is your money well spent with SilverStone at the 1 kilowatt mark?
