Bitfenix Fury Powersupplies - Individually Sleeved Cables??

2015-04-10
hey what's going on guys Jays two cents here we're going to have a little fun today with the with this video we're going to go ahead and play a game and in fact you guys get to be interactive with this game especially when it comes to the comments now here's what we're going to do we are going to play word association and I'm going to say a word and I want you guys to type the first thing that comes into your mind down in the comments section okay and that word today being bitfenix the first thing that comes to mind for me when I say bitfenix is I think cases I mean bitfenix kind of debuted with the prodigy which was a mini ITX case and then they didn't micro-atx version of it and they have come up with some very fantastic looking designs and very popular designs when it comes to cases now they've got a whole range of products and they are now entering the power supply game here with the brand new bitfenix fury line of power supplies the Fraggle design are five is so amazing it fits all kinds of cool hardware in their water cooling air cooling and on top of that it's silent and it's awesome like explosions or like really quiet explosions let's just go ahead and be brutally honest here power supplies are not something that really are all that glamorous you know they're not even that fun to review to be honest and I'm sure when it comes to shopping for them they're not even any more fun when it comes to shopping for either they don't get any of the glory yet they have all of the stress of your system put on them I mean really they're kind of like I've said this before linemen in a football game something goes wrong the lineman's definitely to blame but when things go right the lineman or very rarely ever thanked well the power supply is a lot like that when it comes to your system it has to deal with everything in your system everything goes through the power supply when it comes to stability and trust me you don't want to cheap out on a power supply when it comes to your system otherwise you'll be buying a new system so bitfenix is stepping into the power supply game here with their fury line of power supplies and they've got three different flavors they've got a five 50 a 650 and a 750 watt variant but what makes there's a power supplies unique and what really shows that they're coming out swinging is the fact that they are doing it with all individually sleeved cable sets included with their power supplies now the sleeping that they use on here they're calling their nano sleeve braided cables really it's more like a soft sort of like a paracord if you guys have ever used their alchemy extensions it's the same thing as that but it's just built into the entire power supply and before we open it up and take a look at it let's just go ahead and do a couple of spec things on here it is 80 plus gold now that's kind of becoming like the new 80 plus bronze especially now that we have platinum and titanium rated power supply is out there 80 plus gold means that you're going to be getting at least eighty seven percent efficiency or higher when it comes to the efficiency of the power supply as a five-year warranty on there which is good and it's got a lot of other things going on for like one hundred and thirty five-millimeter fan keeping things very cool if got Intel Haswell c6 c7 power state ready for a lot of the low power states that are available in Haswell processors the nanos leave already mentioned active power factor correction which is going to be at least their advertising giving extremely clean power delivery to your components no I can't test that i do not have one the equipment or to the certification to do that it takes a lot of special equipment and talent to be able to actually do full power supply testing that's why guys like johnny guru are very very well known for that and last but not least when it comes to power delivery we are looking at the 650 watt version here and it is a single 12 volt rail capable of 50 amps on the 12 volt rail alright let's go ahead and open this thing up and take a look the packaging is very very nice and once again with enough soft foam to actually get Linus well not soft if you know what I'm saying so immediately we can see we have got a very aggressive looking power supply on here in fact it's it's very very nice-looking it's got a very nice fan very again very few nixie looking design on their very well matches their logo that they're very well known for it I'm said very well-liked very well many times I know I'm doing that so here you can see the individually sleeved chords again they feel just like the BitFenix alchemy extensions as they should they're using the same stuff but you can see it is individually sleeved coming out of the power supply that's nice to see for a semi modular power supply often the semi modular will have like black cables for all of the accessories and PCI Express but then it will have some ugly see-through rainbow colored cables coming out of the non-modular port so that's nice to see now the only non modular cable on here is the 24-pin the cpu we got 1 2 3 4 6 plus 2 pin vga or pci express power cables and we've got one two three four five peripheral modular cables on there now obviously when it comes to the modularity here they all are right here once again even the say does and everything is completely individually sleeved and that is fantastic to see it even includes a floppy drive to 4-pin molex adapter that's kind of cute I don't know maybe some people still run a floppy drive I don't know I guess there are some devices that use floppy but whatever and then here's your PCI Express cables right there now let's go ahead and talk real quick about the difference between the 550 650 and 750 now the 550 version does again have a 12 volt rail a single 12 volt rail delivering 42 amps on that rail the 650 delivers 50 amps on that rail and the 750 delivers 60 amps on that rail so if you want to know if you have enough power output on this to run all of your accessories or multiple graphics cards there you go you can figure it out based on that now the 550 has a red line the 650 has a blue line and the 750 has a yellow line I do kind of wish that bitfenix would more standardized this maybe just with a black or a gray because then it would aesthetically match many more builds now if you were doing a red system say an AMD or an ROG theme system then this blue is going to look at a place especially if your windows was the power supply like many new cases are doing like the seven ATT from corsair which has a full side panel window the entire thing is a window so this would show and then that blue would definitely not match now that does seem a little bit trivial but when you're going as far as to do custom braided single braided sleeving like this then this shouldn't be an oversight as far as I'm concerned now you could flip it over but then you're going to be looking at your spec sheet there and bring it in through the air through the top and then out the back you know bringing an air from the main part of your case a lot of people don't like that a lot of people want them upside down especially if you're doing water cooling if there's some sort of a drip having it the fan face down it's going to give you a little bit of protection for the power supplies so something doesn't accidentally drip drip inside there don't ask me why I know so much about drips near power supplies and skunk works has a leak you we are going to be putting this thing to the test in a future build this is actually gonna be powering the AMD build that I've been teasing for god knows how long which will be doing very very soon but this is going to be powering the AMD system which I have teased I think it looks fantastic I think if they made a label change and got rid of the red blue and yellow coloring yeah I'm actually saying don't even put yellow even though it would look great in skunk works now it might seem extremely trivial to be like hey don't put colored icons on the now it might seem extremely trivial to you know be saying something along the lines of don't put color on your label like that but I do think when you go as far as to sleeve cables like this standardizing the label to a more monochrome color that's going to match any build aesthetic is a smart movement you might actually find yourself with more customers that way there you go guys the new fury line of power supplies from bitfenix we got more stuff from bitfenix will be taken look at here in the future including the new ages case I had initially planned on putting the amt build in that case but then I realized like the dork that I am and it's actually a micro ATX case and I'm going to be using a full ATX motherboard so I guess we'll probably end up using the define are five for that build but either way it's going to look pretty badass so thanks for watching guys hit me up on social media if you guys have any questions just want to chat I like chatting and interacting with audience that definitely is a way to pass time throughout the day when I don't know no I'm doing poop naps like barnacle ease or whatever attempt to not not fall asleep on the toilet though like poop nap would would basically indicate because then my butt goes numb and that's never fun then I get up and I walk funny hello what kind of funny anyway so that's it for today I'm going to go ahead and get the heck on out of here thanks for watching my first look here at the BitFenix fury power supply and as always thanks for watching I might have a slight addiction to graphics card you
