XFX to introduce 850W power supply?

They went on to say that the unit would have a rated power output of 850W with a corresponding name, the “XFX 850 Black Edition.” Other specifications presented to The Tech Report include a single +12V rail with 70A maximum output, 80 Plus Silver certification with up to 88% efficiency, a quiet 135mm ball-bearing fan and tight voltage regulation with a ±3% tolerance. It will also feature modular cabling, giving users the ability to add up to two PCI-E, 11 SATA, 8 Molex and 2 floppy disk power connectors, with standard ATX and EPS12V cables hard-wired.
While there was no mention of a price, the companies mentioned previously offer similar power supplies online for $100 to $120. They did, however, provide a 3D mock-up of the PSU.

Oh, what I could do with some more power...I've long used a RAID array in my multimedia server. Right now I have a RAID 5 4 disk setup. But had I been able to source a really good PSU, I might have gone for a RAID controller that could handle more drives.Already I have 1.5 TB at my disposal - but what if I could have much more than that? The SuperTrak EX8350 controller from Promise, for example, has 8-Port Serial ATA. A much larger RAID array, or even something like RAID 50, could be possible with say, 8 1 TB drives. That would like 6 TB of useable space, with superb performance.With a power output of 850W, things like this are possible. Noisy, but possible. |
