Introduction and Features

The Silencer 750W CrossFire edition can deliver up to 60A on a powerful single +12V rail and is backed by PC Power and Cooling’s legendary reputation for reliability and performance. It’s bright red, relatively quiet, very efficient and affordable too.

The new PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 Quad CrossFire edition power supply features a single, high-capacity +12V rail capable of delivering up to 60A (720W).  The Silencer 750W CF is painted bright red, comes with four PCI-E connectors (two 6-pin and two 6/8-pin) and not surprisingly is ATI CrossFire certified.

Establishing an accurate load is critical to testing and evaluating a PC power supply.  PCPerspective’s power supply test bench can place a precise 2,000 watt DC load on the PSU under test.  Each power supply is tested under controlled, real-world conditions up to its maximum rated load (at 40ºC), using both 115 VAC and 240 VAC line voltage.  Our current suite of tests includes:

 

  • DC Load Regulation
  • DC Line Regulation
  • DC Cross-load (unbalanced load)
  • AC Ripple and Noise
  • Power Factor
  • Efficiency
  • Differential Temperature
  • Noise
