I've had power supplies from cheap cases die - on the other hand, some of the power supplies that came with cheap cases worked like a charm for a really long time, more than 5 yearsReply

Yeah, it's only 550w, but it can "OC" to 650w and still retain 80 Gold spec, and its fan doesn't spin up until it absolutely has to. Great PSU, albeit kinda costy. Johnny Guru recommended!Reply
Would somebody suggest a reason or two that one might prefer a single +12V rail over multiple? Both are seen, but I never understood why one would be better or worse.Reply
it's probably easier to balance (and adjust for vdroop etc) multiple rails, when using multiple consumers, while a single rail is convenient if you have high power single end points.
But how big that difference is, I'm not sure anyone can tell you except those that won't tell you because they sell it as a vague feature to have...Reply
It's arguably 'better' when overclocking to have a single rail because with multiple rails you run the risk of reaching the limit of a single rail by overvolting a high powered cpu and/or gpus.Reply
I'm as puzzled as you are. Single rail is *always* more convenient since you don't have to worry about overloading a certain rail.
Keep in mind that all psu designs are single rail internally. The rail is then split into many as they are passed through independent wattage limiters. So if it weren't for the limiters, you could have drawn as many power as the total psu rating from a single wire.Reply

I'm quite digging the grill design. Besides being very unique, it is also kind of industrial looking.
There are already 80Plus Platinum PSUs on the market from SuperFlower (rebranded by Kingwin) and plenty of other companies are readying their Platinum and Gold units.
Regarding the single rail switch, why won't this issue just die already. For 99.99999% of computers, how many +12v "rails" a power supply has SHOULD NOT MATTER A SINGLE BIT.Reply

None of the PSUs I have owned have died in less than 3 years. Or ever.Take it as you will. Reply

With a well designed multi rail unit this won't happen, unless you've chosen one that isn't powerful enough for your build to begin with.Well designed & build single rail = well designed and built multi rail. Reply

Sure it's more convenient. But single rail means you lose proper OCP. That can be an important consideration using high wattage psus. ReplyDigitalFreak - Thursday, June 09, 2011 - link
