00:00:07.279 --> 00:00:14.440
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the PC power and cooling silencer MK3

00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:17.680
1200 watt this is a very odd way to lay out the text given you're supposed to

00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:22.279
read it in this order I don't know if there's any culture on Earth that reads

00:00:20.119 --> 00:00:25.680
things in this order but you know whatever if the power suppli is good

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:29.320
enough that it doesn't really matter because this is basically the equivalent

00:00:27.560 --> 00:00:34.320
to like the boyfriend or girlfriend that has it all like looks and brains and

00:00:32.360 --> 00:00:38.960
conversational ability and like the ability to like um you know attract

00:00:36.559 --> 00:00:43.760
ducks with bread and when they throw it just like all can do anything pretty

00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:48.480
much um so yeah it has a seven-year warranty 80 plus Platinum efficiency

00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:53.520
it's got a modular interface that actually looks pretty baller so we're going to have a closer look at this once

00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:59.960
we open it up and it has my favorite thing in the world a silent fan mode

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:03.480
operation feature the fan does not turn

00:00:59.960 --> 00:01:05.640
turn on until it reaches 600 watts so

00:01:03.480 --> 00:01:12.560
that means this power supply is passively cooled up to 600 WTS it is

00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:15.320
also rated for its full output at a 50°

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:22.079
ambient temperature it has all Japanese solid caps that are rated up to 105° C

00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:23.799
it uses a single powerful 12vt rail so

00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:27.560
it does have the usual industrial protections however if you are or you're

00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:31.439
not comfortable with that you can always choose a multi-rail power supply but for

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:34.840
those of you who want that hasslefree no matter what I plug something into there

00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:39.240
won't be any you know overcurrent protection that's triggered this is

00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:44.960
pretty much the way to go up to 92% efficiency although I think that's on

00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:48.439
230 volt AC um and honestly that silent

00:01:44.960 --> 00:01:50.920
mode switch is like the Beall and end

00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:54.960
all of features to me because for a power supply like this where it gets up

00:01:52.399 --> 00:01:59.560
to 600 watts before turning on the fan that means that even a fairly beefy

00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:03.840
gaming system with you know a single or dual even dual GPU cards is almost never

00:02:02.360 --> 00:02:07.560
even going to turn on your power supply and if you're a silence efficient AO

00:02:05.360 --> 00:02:12.959
like myself then that's a big deal for you let me just see if I missed anything

00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:14.760
here large 140 mm fan and active power

00:02:12.959 --> 00:02:19.040
factor correction all that good stuff ah yes silent mode so it gives you a key of

00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:24.519
which switch position is which which is good because on the power supply itself

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:27.840
it actually doesn't tell you so uh there you go so the power supply itself let's

00:02:26.519 --> 00:02:33.959
have a look at the physical attributes you got your honeycomb mesh on the back you got your power switch here you got

00:02:31.160 --> 00:02:37.640
your silent mode switch here power input very very clean overall look and

00:02:35.720 --> 00:02:40.800
aesthetic we've come become used to this with PC power and cooling silencer

00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:46.400
products so you got your white finish which is extremely resilient and uh hide

00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:50.760
scratches incredibly well because it's very matte and like a matte white finish

00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:54.879
will actually hide blemishes way better than a matte black finish we've also got

00:02:52.680 --> 00:03:00.280
the black and Sil or uh rather Platinum black and platinum accents on it okay

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:03.000
and everything even down to see these kinds of details make all the difference

00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:06.720
in the world everything down to the quality control stickers uses that same

00:03:05.440 --> 00:03:10.959
kind of color scheme so it'll look really great in your system silencer MK3

00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:16.000
got like a nice shiny badge there there's your 140 mm dual ball bearing

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:20.200
fan and there inside are all those beefy heat sinks because you can have the most

00:03:18.040 --> 00:03:25.080
uh efficient power supply in the world but it's not going to be able to Output

00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:29.159
600 watts of power to your computer passively unless it's got some decent

00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:33.720
cooling inside so the unit definitely has some weight to it now it's not fully

00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:38.360
modular however I personally don't find that to be the end of the world because

00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:42.840
all the cables that are on here I hope at least I think oh that's rough okay

00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:49.280
almost all the cables on here are ones that everyone will need anyway so you've

00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:50.959
got two PCIe 6 plus two pins you can

00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:55.120
have a look at the sleeving here decent sleeving not the best I've seen but

00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:59.280
definitely far from the worst so you're masking most of the color of those

00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:04.480
yellow cables but not all of it you've got a plus 2 configuration which is my

00:04:01.760 --> 00:04:07.480
favorite by far and these are nice thin wires so you'll be able to tuck this

00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:12.239
away pretty easily if you want if you're only using if you only require a six pin

00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:16.519
um and they've got an additional cap down here so I'm guessing that's helping

00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:21.120
with uh with power stability somewhat and then your 24 pin is a 20 plus4 again

00:04:19.440 --> 00:04:26.600
wouldn't have minded seeing dark cables or somehow uh stealth cables in some way

00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:29.840
but again the sleeving is not bad so that hides a lot of the color there when

00:04:27.960 --> 00:04:32.960
you're doing your cable management now this is uh this is something I would

00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:38.360
have preferred to see just one permanently attached your CPU uh 4 plus4

00:04:35.919 --> 00:04:45.360
pin connectors so most motherboards on the desktop anyway only require one of

00:04:41.320 --> 00:04:47.360
those which means that most people won't

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:50.960
uh won't need the two preattached so that's one cable that most people are

00:04:48.840 --> 00:04:54.440
going to end up tucking away somewhere let's have a look at what we've got in

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.919
terms of modular cables I mean it comes okay here here let's finish off with the

00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:02.280
accessories first so it comes with a power cable some uh you know zip ties

00:05:00.520 --> 00:05:08.039
you got five of them in there which will sort of go 30% of the

00:05:05.840 --> 00:05:11.160
way to uh cable managing your system it's okay hopefully you can if you can

00:05:09.880 --> 00:05:14.639
afford this power supply you can probably go buy some black zip ties uh

00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:17.639
some thumb screws love to see these included with high-end power supplies

00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:21.479
because not every case includes thumb screws for mounting the power supply so

00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:27.039
it's just uh it's nice to see those little finishing touches dear valued

00:05:23.960 --> 00:05:28.479
customer thank you for this and uh if

00:05:27.039 --> 00:05:32.919
you have any customer support issues please contact us here and finally small

00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:37.000
instruction manual in a variety of languages now let's have a look at some

00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:45.680
of the modular cables so we've got a 6 plus 2 we have a 6 plus two we have a 6

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:48.120
plus two and finally just to shake

00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:52.400
things up a little bit we have a 6 plus2 so that means you have a total of six 6

00:05:51.039 --> 00:05:55.600
plus two pin power connectors which means you can install either three

00:05:54.080 --> 00:05:59.800
graphics cards natively anyway you can install three graphics cards that

00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:03.479
require two pin two connectors or you can do two graphics cards that each

00:06:01.280 --> 00:06:07.440
require three connectors or I mean if you wanted you could have six graphics

00:06:05.080 --> 00:06:11.440
cards that each require one connector but um I really can't think of an

00:06:09.599 --> 00:06:14.880
application for that um some motherboards though will want like an

00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:18.160
extra six pin PCI for auxiliary power for example and let's have a look at how

00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:21.840
these connect so they've got little rubber dust or silicone dust covers on

00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:26.319
them and then all you got to do is line up the uh the bump here with the bump on

00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:32.560
the inside plug that bad boy in I think oh

00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:40.680
right sorry so this is one of these so some of them have four pins and some of them have five pins so that'll go there

00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:45.120
and then you put this ring on here and it's plugged in very nice looking cables

00:06:42.919 --> 00:06:47.560
so these ones are all black unlike the pre-attached cables which is all the

00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:52.080
more reason why I would have liked to see more modular cables on this one nice

00:06:49.880 --> 00:06:56.520
flat all black ribbon cables uh terminated with heat shrink and then

00:06:54.120 --> 00:07:01.039
again terminated on this side with just all completely black nice ribbon CA Miss

00:06:59.599 --> 00:07:04.520
these are these are fantastic the length is pretty good on all the cables on this

00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:09.639
power supply this is one of the longest 24 pins I've seen in a while it's almost

00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:12.639
exactly one Linus ARM in length and the

00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:14.639
eight pins uh for all their multitud are

00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:18.599
also quite long about one Linus ARM in length if anything that 24 pin could

00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:23.000
probably be a little bit shorter without hurting anybody's feelings now in terms

00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:26.360
of other modular cables um not quite the selection that I'm used to seeing on

00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:31.080
high-end power supplies so you've got a single 4 Mo X cable so let's go ahead

00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:36.240
and just grab this out of here so that you guys can have a look and we'll sort

00:07:33.039 --> 00:07:37.879
of Judge the length and decide if it uh

00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:44.280
if it makes sense so this is one of those uh those five ones so that'll go

00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:46.199
right there okay screw that in so that

00:07:44.280 --> 00:07:49.319
should get I mean most systems don't require much in the way of four pin

00:07:47.599 --> 00:07:52.800
Molex these days and it's more than a Linus ARM length so you should be able

00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:55.759
to reach whatever you need to but if you do need more MOX connectors you will

00:07:54.400 --> 00:07:59.240
have to consider that about this power supply although you can use Splitters it

00:07:57.520 --> 00:08:05.120
does come with one single four pin Molex to floppy connector adapter again nice

00:08:02.039 --> 00:08:08.319
black looks very sleek and then for SATA

00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.599
you've got a four port harness a four

00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:14.479
port harness and another four port harness so you can hook up to 12 SATA

00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:18.039
drives up to the power supply natively and then you can run those cables up to

00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:22.520
three different places again these look quite long so in terms of cable

00:08:20.280 --> 00:08:25.319
management you will be able to reach pretty much wherever you go with any of

00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:30.080
the cables that come with this power supply so this is again well over a

00:08:27.520 --> 00:08:33.839
Linus ARM length in terms of of overall length I think that pretty much covers

00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:38.200
it so the things to remember 7-year warranty 80 plus Platinum the fan

00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:43.159
doesn't turn on until you reach 600 watts and it is a 12200 watt single rail

00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:49.320
power supply thank you for checking out this unboxing and first look online as
