1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,319
aha the ocz mod extreme so this is a 700 wat power supply it's available in a

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:12,120
couple different capacities used to be a 400 watt version even but there are 500

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:16,520
WT 600 watt and 700 watt versions this is one of the most popular power

4
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:19,880
supplies out there right now so let's go through a quick uh quick rundown of this

5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:24,119
particular unit first of all it is powerful 700 Watts excellent thank you

6
00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:30,000
then it is ultra efficient so this is an 80 plus certified power supply with 135

7
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:32,759
mm fan active PFC and an easy mod cable management system we'll have a close

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:38,040
look at that when we open it up it includes a 3year ocz warranty which is

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:40,399
legendary and it also has NVIDIA SLI

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,559
stamp of approval on it so that pretty much covers everything they tell us on

11
00:00:41,879 --> 00:00:47,960
the front of it first of all actually well there are a couple things on the back and I'll read those out while I'm

12
00:00:46,239 --> 00:00:52,359
uh while I'm breaking all of the seals on this because it's quite well packed

13
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:57,559
in here and I'm going to have a oh ow that explains it I'm using the using the

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:59,440
blunt edge of my knife to to cut while I

15
00:00:57,559 --> 00:01:02,840
uh have my finger on the sharp edge that could have turned out very very badly

16
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:07,960
but at least it would have been on video so it would have been very exciting okay

17
00:01:05,479 --> 00:01:11,720
so the power consumption is less than a equal to one watt in off mode and in

18
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:16,000
standby mode so that has some kind of a little green leaf next to that sticker

19
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:19,360
so I guess that's relevant somehow and then there is also oh that's kind of

20
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,439
cool so it's tested at ultra high temperatur uh 40° Centigrade versus a

21
00:01:22,079 --> 00:01:27,560
lot of other power supplies which are actually rated at unrealistically low

22
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:32,520
temperatures so that they can inflate the rated wattages okay so that's a

23
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:35,720
pretty good thing to know and then what else there was something else on the

24
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:39,320
back that I wanted to to tell you lot about before I go ahead and open this

25
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:43,520
what did they have multi GPU ready okay we already know that uh no that was

26
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:49,079
pretty much it okay so let's get this thing open and let's get kind of angled

27
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:52,920
down and zoomed in I have no cameraman on this fine day that's okay so the

28
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:58,719
first thing we will find is a user's manual which is in English Dutch espanol

29
00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:00,079
France Italiano Netherlands okay a bunch

30
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:04,320
of stuff I really don't know to pronounce anymore and that tells you

31
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:08,640
just the basics installation and troubleshooting thank you all right then

32
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:13,080
next we will find the power supply there's not a whole lot in here in terms

33
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:17,720
of accessories I mean these are a very uh Great Value I can go ahead and I can

34
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:21,959
say that so you can't really expect the whole nine yards in terms of accessories

35
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:25,800
but here's the little box that holds all of the cables here is your power cable

36
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:29,480
this is a pretty wussy looking power cable but realistically it's all you'll

37
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:33,280
need for a 700 W power supply and a computer running off of it this I really

38
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:38,800
like it comes with a little nice little mesh bag this looks kind of like a pencil bag it includes your modular

39
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:42,480
cables and it also includes four screws for mounting the power supply thank you

40
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:46,280
for that let's have a look at the power supply itself and then we'll have a look

41
00:02:44,159 --> 00:02:51,319
at the modular cables quite a nice looking unit actually right off the bat

42
00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:55,640
here so you've got your mod extreme label on the side here it's 700 WTS you

43
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:59,480
got that that's that little green leaf sticker I was talking about before at so

44
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,080
here's all of your uh your testing stickers showing that it did pass all of

45
00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:07,799
its testing if yours doesn't have these maybe uh let ocz know on the back you'll

46
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:12,120
find your fairly standard honeycomb Grill and then you've got a power switch

47
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:18,239
as well as a power plug input here we will find the um the rail breakdown for

48
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:22,959
this unit so this is a dual 12volt rail power supply and you've got 25 amps on

49
00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:27,920
each rail they are capable of providing 552 watts of the total 700 Watts that

50
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:32,239
this power supply can provide there's your 80 plus logo as well as all of your

51
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:36,640
safety certifications on the front you will find

52
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:40,040
the modular interface as well as the cables that are included by default so

53
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:45,319
these two look like they're going to be for PCI Express while these two are

54
00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:49,040
black so these are red PCI Express these black ones look like they're going to be

55
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:52,760
for Molex and SATA so let's see what's actually included on this power supply

56
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:57,720
ocz has gone with a fairly modular interface I've actually seen a lot of

57
00:03:54,840 --> 00:04:02,680
modular power supplies that include like they include like a 24 pin an 8 Pin a

58
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:06,879
couple PCI Express Molex and SATA cables all hardwired to the power supply and

59
00:04:04,799 --> 00:04:11,360
then they have like two modular plugs on them I think that's just kind of

60
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:14,120
ridiculous so here we go we've got a 24

61
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:18,440
pin power connector hardwired then also hardwired we have our 8 Pin power and

62
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:22,800
our four pin power so you'll either use this one or this one I uh I'm not a big

63
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:27,320
fan of that just because then you're stuck with cables that you might not

64
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:32,280
even be be well you pretty much won't be using unless you're powering like a an

65
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:37,199
EVGA board that requires both a four pin and an8 pin so that's okay in terms of

66
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:40,600
modular cables these don't look very long do they actually all of these

67
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:44,520
cables are pretty short on this particular unit that's not that long at

68
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:47,320
all I mean it should be fine as long as your power supply is mounted in the top

69
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:51,639
of your case or as long as you don't have to go around a lot of obstacles to

70
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,680
mount um or to get the cables up to your motherboard so why don't we get this

71
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:59,880
kind of zoomed back out oh I went the wrong way hold on bear with me here

72
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:04,199
sorry about that okay modular cables so here is your PCI Express 8 pin connector

73
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:08,039
so it plugs in or this is a six pin pardon me so this plugs into the power

74
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:12,400
supply that's eight pins but there are two empty ones see just like that so

75
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:16,840
that's a six pin connector and then the other one actually makes use of all

76
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:21,560
eight pins and you can see that it has a 6 plus two pin connector on the other

77
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:25,360
end all right then the other modular cables are they don't give you many

78
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,800
options with this one I like modular power supplies that include extra cables

79
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:32,280
so they'll include like three Molex and three SATA even though there's only four

80
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:37,000
modular plugs so if you have a very hard drive heavy build or a very other

81
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:41,440
accessory heavy build you can kind of go one way or the other but it doesn't

82
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:45,520
really defeat the purpose because it still allows you to just not

83
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,520
plug in the cables that you don't need even if they're only including exactly

84
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,880
what would be attached to the power supply anyway that was very long and

85
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:58,400
very rambly but that's okay so we've got two MOX cables Each of which has two

86
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:02,840
Molex connectors on it and one floppy connector these are again fairly short

87
00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:06,800
but it should be fine like I said once again if you are using a fairly small

88
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:10,599
case and you have a top mounted power supply so you can see it's got about

89
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:15,639
that kind of length on it then the same length again we have two SATA cables and

90
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:20,039
Each of which has three SATA connectors so you can connect a total of six SATA

91
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:23,280
power supply SATA power supplies six SATA hard drives to this power supply

92
00:06:21,599 --> 00:06:27,880
without any kind of adapters or anything else thank you for checking out my
