The Enermax Liberty has longer cables, I had that one for 1 hour :rolleyes: , and it let me place the PSU in it's regular mounting position compared to the Modstream I currently still own... however getting to a possible future second card made the cable just a bit too short.Quote:

The Modstream have probably the shortest cable I have seen. the GameXStream look to be much longer.. This is what ruled out the Modstream for me..Quote:

i understand my Antec P160 isn't huge, but the GX's pci-e reach my 7800gt's with room to spare.
assuming this 12cmfan is temp controlled? would there be anything (apart from clearance of the top of the m/b... oh, and :lol: issues mounting it) stopping someone mounting there own silent 12cmfan on the psu once its installed... ac12 or something... keep the psu cool enough with a silent fan that the loud one never spins up?Quote:

EDIT: cherry post! :P
The 120mm fan is inside the PSU, if you open thePSU to replace it, your warranty would be voided.Quote:

What are the differences between 600W and 700W gameXstreams?
I mean, most talk about the 700w but I really would like to know about the differences between both...is "just" the combined power output?
What makes someone buy 700W rather than the 600W one?
Thanx
700W: 18A each rail
600W: 15A each rail
I dont think so:Quote:

"At least" :
-combined 600W- 580W
-combined 700W -680W
anything more?
18A rails on the 600W version ?
Wow, I will order it.
Just got my 600W.
Here is some reading:
Load: (prime)
3.3V: 3.26 - 3.33
5V: 4.95 - 5.05
12V: 12.34 - 12.59
Idle:
3.3V: 3.26 - 3.31 (seam to be 3.28-3.30 most of the time)
5V: 4.95 - 5.05 (seem to be 5.03 most of the time)
12V: 12.42 - 12.59 (always move)
Is that "good" ? (3.3 seem a bit low, but still only about 1% :p: )
Edit: And the 600W does have 18A on each 12V rail
Hmmm...that's the second time I've seen higher than spec voltage on the 12v line of the OCZ. How loud or quiet is it for you?
You cannot be sure that software readings are accurate, you must measure with a Multimeter to determine the actual voltages.
I did a Multimeter reading:
The 12V idle and under load stay at 12.25-12.28.
The 5V idle and under load stay at 4.96-4.99
so yea, it's an error reading, even if it's still "a bit" high.
Couldn't test the 3.3V.
As for noise, I find it quite silent. I love it.
Good enough for me, I'm moving on the 700w
At first i thought that my GXS had an acceptable noise.
Now i see that it is too damn loud.
I was used to Be-Quiets. Those things ARE silent.
Im considering to ditch the warranty and installing a silent fan. Or at least removing the internals of that one for the ones of an NB SX1.
:stick:
If i had the computer on the bedroom i wouldnt be capable of spleeping.
Too damn loud.
The fan seems to have no temp control. Always at full speed.
heh each person perceives too loud differently i guess.. for me gamexstream is quietest psu fan i have used to date
Well just be glad you don't have the pcp&c. Compared to that the GXS is silent. /sigh
Can you get me an estimate of how fast the fan is spinning?Quote:

Simple to make a post over at the support forums or PM me here and ask. :)
GAK, email me so we can get it fixed.
Thanks
Noise is very perspective-dependent, but really, if this thing turned out annoying you have a defect, such as a fan blade not as smooth as it should.
As reported elsewhere, my 12V rails are around 12.20 V, DMMed, while on load with a 8-CPU box.
The PSU, as i said, is working just fine...
Simply i was used to even more silent PSU's.
The last Be-Quiet wich i had with 2x80mm was more silent that this one. Wich i blame not having a thermo-controlled fan. That would help to reduce it's noise a lot.
I'm not complaining about the PSU. I still like. But imho it could have been better with this issue.
Nothing however i can't fix!
:D
For instance when i had my last PSU i sometimes had to check by it's light to see if the PC was turned on. Now i can listen him at a good 6 meters across two rooms...
I'm picky about noise....
:stick:
can't u replace the fan or would that void your warranty?

LOL! Scared by a bunch of guys that have probably never even used one.Quote:

The X2 does fine by me with a pair of eVGA 7800GTX's, but no doubt the GameXstream is a better product. Not modular, no FlexForce cables, more expensive.. but more power, quad 12V rails, quiet fan and doesn't crossload.
