EVGA GQ Hybrid Modular PSUs

The OEM on these is FSP.

I am not really sure why they need another addition to the range. Unless they are a lot cheaper than the G2 and GS then there isn't much point to them imo.
 
Spezially at the PSU market people have a lot of individually requirements to a PSU. With the GQ Series we used some of the most famous features of our other series while trying to still hit a good price point on this. Example price comparison: In our online store the 750G2 is listed at 142 EUR and the GQ 750 is 110 EUR.
 
These have a single 12v rail it would appear. Really though how are these going to fit in the UK. The EVGA model range is getting extremely cramped and from what I can see are going to compete with their own units. Not counting the budget range we already have the B2, G1, G2, GS, P2, T2 and now the GQ. Do we really need all these different Gold rated units?

Just had a look around and a competitor has the GQ 750w listed at £74 and the GQ 850 listed at £98. Only a 5 year warranty on these as well. If those prices are correct then the 850w is only £10 cheaper than they sell the G2 850w which is fully modular, a better OEM and has double the warranty.
 
the launch was in Europe more or less a soft launch, units will get shipped soon and when this happened price will probably get adjusted again. Some of the SKUs you have listed might also die next year so it will not be that crowded anymore. What seperates it a bit from the lower versions is the full dc to dc active clamp design, we wanted to also offer this for a better price point and the fan is a lot different to all the other units because the others have double ball bearing what you need with a 10 yrs warranty... but it can be a little louder then fluid bearing, noise wise the QSs are really silent. Not that a G2 is loud but the bearing and fan used with the GQs is just a bit better but it do "only" have 5yrs warranty. I can also see your point just pay 10 Bucks more for the G2... but if someone really cares about the noise level and saves 10 Bucks at the PSU, maybe go for a cheaper brand graphics card there, some value RAM here and at the end of the day a 700Bucks system is might down to 600Bucks.. And the PSU is still superb :)
