  1. Expensive, but as always A1+ quality. What a great company, love my X series.

  2. Great, ill wait on 750W as it will hopefully be £20 less. has everything we need!

  3. They make for so many companies now, Cooler Master, Corsair, XFX, the list goes on and on! Still i always go for the company themselves, even though they cost normally a bit more.

  4. i got 750w version, is that as good as this one?

  5. My S12 II 850W EVO unit is very load, even with load at 280 – 300W to PSU, fan ramps ups very quickly and it’s pretty loud.

    My PC with 3770K @ 4.5GHz and GTX 780 @ 1150/1600MHz pulls ~ 440W from the wall in Crysis 3 (measured with watt meter), that’s ~ 370W from PSU and fan hits very high rpm, I would say max.

    It’s very annoying and I would recommend anyone to look elsewhere if thy want a silent PSU, this one is a jet.

    I really don’t know how your unit (kitguru) and also one on jhonnyguru review was so silent, because there are many issues on the internet with people complaining about noise on S12 II units.

    Other than that it’s a very good PSU, it’s a shame that a bad fan / fan profile combo ruined such a great picture.

  6. Yes it is.

  7. I have only 520W EVO but I hope it’s at least good with only i5 4590 and 650ti boost.
