Thank you so much for doing a video review of this product. I have been anticipating a product like this for a good while. I have a question, though. If you check out this link, you'll see I built a small gaming system that uses a similar PSU. http://www.3dgameman.com/forum/modding/case-gallery-post-your-toaster I have the Silverstone ST45SF 450 Watt SFX power supply. The biggest difference between mine is that the one you reviewed is 80+ Gold certified, instead of Bronze, and is 100% modular. As you may know, the computer rig I built is a little toaster, but does well in a cool environment. Do you think it would be worth upgrading my power supply to this model, to benefit from extra ventilation? Obviously I would of bought this model if it was available at the time. I appreciate your time.

Hmm... If someone could make a TFX to ATX bracket so that I can use this TFX power supply, I'd be golden to put this in a Micro ATX case with a next generation AMD Kaveri platform. :)

Oh, I can dream! :)

HTPC: AMD Athlon X2 4050e CPU with 780G ATX motherboard running Windows 8 DP (4GB) and Ubuntu; Server: AMD AII X2 240e CPU with 880G-based ATX motherboard running Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (8GB)

2 pairs of Insignia NS-B2111s (front/rear), Pioneer SP-C21 Center Speaker, and 12" Velodyne Sub

Just ordered HP Pavilion dv7-6165us from QVC. Will have it by next Friday.

80+ gold 450w and its not passive ? Surely it does not get hot at all. At least they should have it only spin up when needed. Then again its a small PSU not sure if passive is possible. And its a shame it does not come with a power switch.

Kickass
