00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:07,200
So today we're going to be doing a quick unboxing of the ocz stealth extreme 500

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:12,559
W power supply so the biggest difference between the stealth extreme and the game

3
00:00:09,559 --> 00:00:14,599
Extreme line of power supplies for ocz

4
00:00:12,559 --> 00:00:19,160
is the fact that the stealth extremes do not have an LED fan they just have a

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,680
black fan okay I don't think they actually run quieter but the game

6
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:26,160
extremes run quite quiet anyway so I don't think it's going to be that big of

7
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:29,320
a deal in terms of standout features on this particular unit we've got silent

8
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:33,239
operation okay so they have power whisper technology blah blah blah runs

9
00:00:31,279 --> 00:00:38,360
quiet thank you very much then we have active PFC which is great Superior

10
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:42,079
cooling Emi isolated casing and hassle-free warranty now the warranty is

11
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:46,399
one of the biggest things for any ocz product because ocz really does take

12
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:51,840
that whole hassle-free warranty things seriously before I worked at uh before I

13
00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:56,239
worked at NC when I was uh actually having to deal with them once as a

14
00:00:53,640 --> 00:01:04,839
customer I had I believe it was a Power Stream 520 Watt and the warranty replace

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:07,880
for that was so easy that I was uh sold

16
00:01:04,839 --> 00:01:09,880
for for life in terms of how how good

17
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:13,439
they are at dealing with any warranty claims so I had a bit of a problem with

18
00:01:11,479 --> 00:01:17,200
it I sent it into them they sent me back a game Extreme 700 watt so they did a

19
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:20,680
really great job for me that was a few years back at this point anyway let's

20
00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:25,040
have a look at what we got inside here it's a pretty basic package actually in

21
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:28,520
terms of power supplies but it's quite an inexpensive power supply so you

22
00:01:26,759 --> 00:01:32,200
expect that a little bit first of all you've got a little manual okay showing

23
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:36,920
you how to install it giving you some idea of the pinouts of all the major

24
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:41,920
connectors on the power supply unit itself protection okay safety trouble

25
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:46,119
and some troubleshooting tips great then you've got an AC power cord okay that's

26
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:51,399
terrific it's quite flexible actually feels kind of nice that's great okay and

27
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:55,200
then getting down to oh yeah we got five screws oh that's terrific even if you

28
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:59,360
lose one you will still have enough screws to plug the power supply into or

29
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:03,960
to uh connect the power supply to your case all right so here we will find the

30
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:08,399
power supply unit itself it's a fairly basic unit once again like I said before

31
00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:11,959
so it's not modular or anything like that and you don't find a huge number of

32
00:02:10,319 --> 00:02:17,319
connectors we've got the little do not eat bag don't eat it all right and then

33
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:22,879
here we go so a pretty plain black housing on this unit if I could get the

34
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:27,480
bubble wrap off that would be terrific okay so there we go we've got a pretty

35
00:02:24,239 --> 00:02:30,000
plain black housing it actually uses a

36
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:36,239
two rail design for the 12vt rail which combined for 36 amps total so 18 amps on

37
00:02:33,959 --> 00:02:40,040
each 12vt Rail and you can see that together the two 12vt rails are good for

38
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:03,319
481.121 or 240 switch which is quite typical iCal of a power supply of this

39
00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:08,959
type you got an onoff switch then you've got more black more black and a black

40
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:13,480
fan which I didn't mentioned before Oh this is kind of an interesting sticker

41
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:16,640
to keep warranty please do not remove so they don't want you taking the casing

42
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:20,440
off it really you shouldn't be opening any power supply period because if

43
00:03:18,959 --> 00:03:24,879
you're opening a power supply you opening up a can of danger this is not

44
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,760
meant to be used or serviceable on the inside and if you have any problems you

45
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:34,439
should contact ocz for their legendary warranty support anyway now in terms of

46
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:39,720
connectors there is not a whole lot to talk about so you've got your standard

47
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:43,239
20 plus 4 pin or 24 pin ATX connector

48
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:45,840
then you've got if I can find it a four

49
00:03:43,239 --> 00:03:52,079
pin connector okay so that's your like your P4 connector okay then you've got a

50
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:54,640
single 6 plus2 pin PCI Express connector

51
00:03:52,079 --> 00:03:59,200
then you've got two Molex here you've got two more Molex and a floppy

52
00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:01,400
connector here and then only three SATA

53
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:06,480
cables on this particular unit as I said fairly basic thank you for checking out

54
00:04:03,519 --> 00:04:09,840
