Specific PSU needed.

[gropingmantis]

Ok looking for a new PSU for an upcoming build, more on that later.

It MUST:

• be a 150x140x86mm ATX PSU.
• have a top/bottom mounted fan (not rear mounted basically).
• be non-modular.

It SHOULD:

• be 700-800W (can be as low as 650 but best to be on the safe side).
• be reasonably efficient (preferably 80+ silver minimum).

Now I have located one PSU that fits the bill perfectly (see here) but there are no reviews of it and I cannot find it for sale anywhere.

Does anyone know either:

• Where I can get hold of one of those PSUs in the above link?
• Any other PSU that fits my specifications?

Yes I just learned how to do lists in BBCode

XFX

For just over £60. There is a 750 version for £70 odd.

Or this from corsair for a bit more money.

Again, a 750w is available.

You probably need to look at 650w PSU as the majority of PSU above this are the larger size, the Corsair below might be usefull:

Dimension150mm(W) x 86mm(H) x 160mm(L)

I have already looked at the sizes of the XFX and Corsair PSU and dismissed them as to big.

 

[gropingmantis]

Yep I've already looked and pretty much every retail PSU over 400W is 150x160x86 which is ridiculous.

If FSP can do an 80+ Gold 800W 150x140x86 PSU then why the hell can't anyone else?

150 x 140 x 86mm
Top mounted fan, or bottom depending on your perspective.
Non modular

700W
80Plus Gold

Still not that easy to get hold of but not impossible.

£100 or thereabouts.

I have one in my system, although I got it free from FSP Taiwan and I swapped the fan.

However I'm sure there's loads of PSUs that fit the size requirements, non modular but not so much the Silver 80Plus requirement.

The OCZ SXS 2 700W unit (also made by FSP I think) seem to be the right size, non modular but only Bronze 80 Plus.

Seasonic?

They list the sizes clearly to see too, Silver and Gold rated.

 

[gropingmantis]

Tried Seasonic they only go up to 650W in that size, they are normally my first choice.

Ahh good link Tealc, that looks like FSP's retail version of the one I was looking at. Thanks.
