In Win Green Me Series 650W White 80PLUS Bronze Power Supply Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

2012-07-31
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the inn win greenie series 650 watt power supply and the whole thing with this power supply is the eco friendliness so it uses 80 plus bronze efficiency in order to be efficient it has three year warranty comes with one hundred percent recyclable packaging 100% recyclable packaging and it also has hold on how long and see if they say it again did you really only twice only twice look at that okay one hundred percent recyclable packaging dc-to-dc design it helps it achieve that efficiency high quality Japanese capacitors a strict voltage regulation plus run is five percent how strict values but given that it's like more of a value-oriented product i guess that's fine well within spec anyway active power factor correction high-efficiency smart thermal control the balance noise and cooling patented 4-pin molex easy swap connectors we'll have to have a look at those multi protection functions so over voltage over power under voltage / current etc and for 12 volt rails each maxing out at 25 amps with up to six hundred and forty-eight watts of the total 650 watt capacity available on the 12 volt rail that's actually really nice comes in a variety of capacities including 550 650 and 750 and greenie is more than a product it is a state of mind look at that however you're like valuable thing showing you all the connectors and whatnots in the wide variety of different languages alright here comes the recyclable packaging cardboard going on here oh actually looks quite nice look at that felt like a white casing on it my casings are good lots of people are doing like white and black bean builds these days hey Cody oh hold on I don't know if the silica gel is recyclable I think it might be absolutely no all right comes with a couple velcro cable ties four screws for installing it power cable and let's check out the power supply itself so let's go ahead and hold this wire off here so this is not a modular power supply however modular interfaces do tend to reduce efficiency however slightly so if they were going for the most efficient family planet-friendly possible solution I can see how they would want to go with fixed connected cables as I mentioned before it's about a white housing this is where you'll find all the information that we already found on the outside of the box the back has your standard honeycomb mesh no voltage input switch to the PFC although there is an on-off switch as well as your power in 120 millimeter cooling fan is found on the bottom and it looks like a pretty beefy fan actually you okay it's got some heft to it as well so let's have a look at the included connectors it's got a 24-pin connector not too long not too short you can break away the extra four pins and install it into a 20 pin motherboard if you honestly still have a 20 pin motherboard that you're buying a new power supply for although I mean I really don't see the wisdom in that you've got a 4 plus 4 so you can either use it as an 8-pin or you can use it as a 4-pin if you still have a four-point no I'm just kidding I know some new motherboards still have four pins like ITX boards and stuff like that okay moving right along we've got two PCIe 6 plus 2 pin connectors so you can plug that into your 8-pin pci express graphics card or if you still have a graphics card that only takes a second option key I know lots of them have that moving right along we've got one molex harness which has three molex connectors as well as a floppy connector if you still have something that uses a floppy connector and then we've also got six SATA connectors on two separate harnesses thus leaving on this is actually reasonably high quality that's better than I would have did so you actually can't see the color of the wires very much through it compared to what I've seen on competing products from even the likes of someone like like entech with their earthwatts you know green oriented products so I think that pretty much wraps it up thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the green me i care i do series of power supplies don't forget to subscribe flyness tech tips from our unboxings reviews and other computer videos
