Linus tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by NCI XCOM your source for great technology selection and service along with corsair Memory and western digital hey guys wrote the enermax sweet checking out the first fanless power supply with digital monitor this thing is awesome it's a 550 watt fanless power supply go 80 plus platinum it's fully modular which is absolutely awesome I've got it right here and as you can see right in the top there's no fan but the coolest part about this because we've already had found this power supplies is the digital monitoring so with the digital monitor you can check how much wattage it's using how much efficiency it's running at how hot it is you can switch rails from single rail to multiple rails you can see the actual readings and the theoretical readings of the different rails you can adjust actual readings for voltages you can see how much wattage and voltage and amperage which is a calculation of each other that is pulling from the wall you can see everything essentially which is great because there's a little bit of phobia around fanless power supplies that you're worried that it's going to get too hot and your system is going to fail in some way but if it's digital monitoring you can monitor the temperature so you can see exactly how hot it is how fish and it's running all that kind of stuff so this is great to see because I think this is going to open a lot of doors to people that were scared of families power supplies in the past next up we've got their twister pressure this is enter Max's first foray into 120 millimeter static pressure fans it has an air flow of seventy nine point nine six CFM static pressure of 3.85 sound level of 25 DBA and a speed of 1800 rpm and the demo that they have here is what's really cool so what's going on is they have a little basically windmill and then they have two different fans they have competitor high pressure high static pressure fan high performance high static pressure fan sorry which I'm sure many of you will be able to recognize which competitor that is but either way and then they've got the windmill sitting out there so you can have it the the pressure hit the windmill and then spin it so it's not the most scientific thing ever because different fans will shoot air in different cones and I know it supposed to be static pressure so it should be a certain alignment all I kind of stuff but it's not perfect but it's kind of fun and if you want to try and see how your fans doing at home you can kind of run this test so if you have a few different fan in your case you can see how well it's going to perform based on shelving some type of windmill in front of it like I said it's not perfect but it is very cool thank you for watching our enermax content thank you to all of our subscribers NCIX mainly corsair and WD for sponsoring us to come to CES 2014 this year and if you want to see all of our CES 2014 content be sure to subscribe to Linus tech tips
