Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western
Digital hey guys we're at the entx suite checking out the first fanless power
supply with digital monitor this thing's awesome it's a 550 W fanless power
supply go uh 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 uh how 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 finless power supplies that you're you're worried that it's going to get too hot and your system's
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 fishing 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 fanless power supplies in the past next up we've got their twister
pressure this is en Max's first Fay into 120 mm static pressure fans it has an
air flow of 79.9 CFM static pressure of
3.85 sound level of 25 DBA and a speed
of 1,800 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 Press 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 uh 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's supposed to be static pressure so it should be a
certain alignment all that 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 fans in your case you can see
how well it's going to perform based on shoving some type of windmill in front
of it like I said it's not perfect but it is very cool thank you for watching
