FSP Aurum CM Series Gold 650W PSU review

Allan 'Zardon' Campbell January 26, 2012 Featured Announcement, Power Supplies

The FSP Aurum 650W is supplied in a stylish black box with gold accenting. If a power supply is 80 Plus Gold Certified you can nearly guarantee this is the scheme they will use.

‘Enjoy your new device' they proclaim on the inside of the box. We do hope it is a power supply underneath the manual and not an iPhone.

FSP include a user manual, power cable, badge, installation screws and cable tidies.

Above left, the modular cables, which are flat and protected by a rubberised cover. The image above right shows the hardwired cables which include the main ATX connector, several PCIe connectors and the main EPS 4+4 (CPU) power connector.

    Just bought a new XFX branded power supply for £80, works great. Loads of choices as reviewer says.

    ouch, not much of a deal. Corsair make such good supplies too for no more than this at the same output.

    Good to see this review today. I was beginning to lose faith in the site, but seeing as this actually raises a few critical points about the PSU and doesn’t just rubber stamp it and give it an award for having turned up for the review I figure there’s still hope.

    hehe

    I’m way too old and stubborn to just move on and give up on something I like and I’ll be the first to admit that I can get a bit “passionate” about things. Well hopefully we can move past previous misunderstandings and get back to the important stuff, ie: tech stuff and reviews of new kit. 😉
