Inside is a Protechnic Electric fan (Model Number: MGA12012HD-A25). This is a quality fluid dynamic bearing fan rated at up to 2,400 rpm, 84.8CFM. This fan should last a long time, based on the high grade bearing technology.
Bitfenix have paired up with FSP for the design of these power supplies (based on the Aurum platform). There are a noticeable lack of heatsinks populating the board, which raised my eyebrow immediately.
Soldering quality looks to be quite good, although it does fall short of the best work from the likes of Seasonic or Delta.
The first section of the transient filter at the AC receptacle includes a couple of Y caps. It moves over to the main PCB, a DM choke, four X and Y caps and two CM chokes. No Metal Oxide Varistor in this unit.
FSP have installed a Chemi Con electrolytic capacitor onto the front part of the modular PCB to help with ripple suppression.
The design uses a high grade Japanese 105c rated capacitor in the primary stage – 330uF, 420V.
The cables are all sleeved into the chassis and protected with a grommet. Some of the wires are sadly without heat shrinks as they connect to the PCB.

KitGuru Advent Calendar Day 23: Win one of TWO Philips NeoPix 750 Projectors!
For Day 23 of the KitGuru Advent Calendar we are teaming up with Philips to give away something a little different. Rather than giving away a typical monitor, we've gone bigger and are offering up TWO NeoPix projectors.
I wonder if they will be reliable? I guess only time will tell. Those individually sleeved cables do look tempting!
Why buy this when the Seasonic 660W Fully Modular 80+ Platinum is available for £3 more? No brainer there.
I bought the 550W model 4 weeks ago purely for the cables. I would of wanted the Corsair but the added costs of the braided cables is too much. I know it’s pricey and better options for the money, but the cables sold it for me. After building my ITX PC, I’m glad I went for this unit as the cables helped a lot and make the build look professional.
yea, especially being that this is based on fsp aurum. that mediocre at very best platform needs to die already.
