Antec Earthwatts EA 750W green Review

Allan 'Zardon' Campbell May 24, 2011 Featured Announcement, Power Supplies

This model gets a fan upgrade, and very nice it is too. They have included an ADDA ADN512UB-A90 which has also been used in some of the recent XFX power supply designs. This 135mm fan has nine blades and is a ball bearing design which runs off 0.44A. It is rated to produce a maximum of 82CFM.

The Delta design is very clean and well laid out, positioning several heatsinks to help with component cooling.

The supply uses two primary Nippon Chemi Con capacitors – 270uf 420V and rated to 85C. The design is Active PFC and offers over current, over voltage, short circuit, over power and over temperature protection. The cables are sleeved, tied together and then routed into the chassis, helping to stop fraying against the metal body.

    I like the paintcolour, photos show it well.

    I see no reason for them not to include a power cable, that is ridiculous. Its to save a dollar on shipping

    Im afraid im aiming higher, to the 1200W range next time. but seems like a solid enough product, which you would expect from antec.

    Good idea and good for Antec. I have an entire large bag of power cables, despite throwing out all but two spares just 5 years ago. Ditto every other kind of cable, to the point I have a small cupboard full of wires.
    Cable recyling would be useful – VGA cables, Scart leads you name it, I have piles of them – they’re no use and there’s nowhere to dispose of them as charity shops don’t want them.

    Initially I thought it was a pain, but I just realised ive 5 spare cables here myself. I would assume most people into comptuers or building are the same…… not really an issue.

    Ive more of an issue with those cables. naked cables are terrible looking.

    For the price this is excellent. good efficiency and stability. Shame about the cabling, I agree its pretty ugly. even a semi sleeved idea would work well.
