Fractal Design Integra M 650W Review


DSCF3569
The Fractal Design Integra M 650W is pleasing to the eye, and build quality is hard to fault for the £55 asking price. Paint work is reasonably deep and it dealt with our screwdriver test surprisingly well. This test involves running the head of a Philip’s screwdriver down the side of the chassis with weak to modest pressure. How often have you accidentally hit a power supply with some tools during a system build phase?

The paintwork survived the test, with only one section of the abrasion showing a slight scratch.

The Fractal Design Integra M 650W power supply measures 150mm x 86 mm x 140 mm – ideal for cases with limited physical space. It weighs 1.69kg.

A large white fan takes centerstage behind a black grill – we take a closer look at this shortly, when we crack open the case.

The other side of the case has a little company logo beveled into the metal. Its a subtle touch, but welcomed.

One side is home to the company logo and the capacity of the unit is visible bottom corner.

Another side of the chassis is vented to help with airflow. There is a power button and connector at the side.

This is a semi modular unit and the simple row of three connectors is hardly likely to confuse anyone. They are all labelled to make life easier.

The OEM has made the +12V rail very strong indeed, delivering 54Amps. The Bitfenix Fury 650W Gold certified unit that we reviewed back in July for instance has a 50Amp +12V rail.
