i can't get a fsp 530 here in germany but i can get a Fortron Source FSP460-60PFN 460W EPS 12V (active PFC, full range (100-240V) • +3.3V: 27A • +5V: 29A • combined Power (+3.3V & +5V): 200W • +12V CPU: 16.5A • +12V I/O: 15A • combined Pwoer (+3.3V & +5V & +12V): 440W • -5V: 0.3A • +5Vsb: 2A)
is that a good one? sorry i don't know much about a psu
I got mine this morning.
Im very impressed.
Rails (on the atx connector) are 12.6/5.5 and 3.6 :D :D
Looking good so far..
is that one of this good psu's? if yes i'll buy one this evening :)Quote:

LOL, or it got "tweaked" during the trip over the pond.
maybee the guy in customs got in a sneaky overclock when he was looking at it.
(didnt get charged import tax btw)
That's good on the tax. I shipped to a guy in canada once. Sold him a vid card off ebay for like $350. Put a card in there, gift from Grampa. I insured it for the amount and he got hit with the Customs duty. And got mad at me said the insurance amount set it off!!! Could i send him some $$.
Mines fine and queiter than my TTGI on it's lowest setting. Guess you noticed the weight of that Sucker!!!
Hmm gotta find my Digicam to put ttgi550 for sale in the forum. Four LED fans in that supply lighted. I usually dont like all that Flash!!!
He shouldnt have been charged...
he was probably BSing me I've not had a problem shipping to Canada since.
Wasnt like i was going to pay him anything, this was probably almost 4 years ago. A hurcules GF2 Pro!! first 64mb Gforce. all blue, and if I remember. It was $399 when i bought it.
ok , i ordered a Fortron Source FSP460-60PFN 460W (can't get a 530 here in europe) for 83€ , is the fortron good right out of the box?
It's fine out the box.
Where did you find it in Europe? :confused:Quote:

I shipped it a little hot out the box. I adjusted it on my rig, which pulls a lot of juice.
Just out of curiosity, what was the final figure after shipping to Europe ? ;)
PTK
Picked up a NewEgg refurbished one today for $39 shipped. My first refurbished item so we'll see how my luck goes.
I just shipped a PC P&C 510w power supply to the UK for $38. I'd assume the Fortron Source would be ~$30.Quote:

I might be interested in getting one too, booted [ Its now funny how you allways shutted your PC down and/or had to BOOT even during usage to keep the damn thing going ;).. now i usually boot once in ~3 weeks ] to check the voltages in BIOS.
Didnt write them down, but if i remember right ...
+3.3V - ~3.2x-3.25V
+5V - ~4.85-4.9V
+12V - ~11.70-11.8V
So every line was ~2-4% undervolting in BIOS. And thats with 430W Truepower unmodded. No mods on the mobo [ yet ]. Must get a multimeter to check the values from the molex connectors under load... and to do that long overdue ddr-voltmod.

PTK
Does values are all fine, the specs for 12V rail is ±5%(11.4-12.6v), 5V ±5(4.75-5.25V), 3.3V ±5%(3.14-3.47V). But it might be a good idea to atleast check the voltages at the atx-connector when you check with a DMM later, it shouldn't differ but it can do it.
Only thing that you might want to do if you do a vdimm-mod is a sensmod for the 3.3V rail if your board powers the memories from the 3.3V rail otherwise thats fine, no need for a new psu really.
I Digged this up for a reason, just bought a used Vapo PE and now running with it i was watching MBM5 voltage readouts.
2.4C P4 1.6V @ 296FSB ~ 3.55G 2xPrime95 CPU -7C
From the High/Low page:
Core 1.61/1.5
+3.3V....3.26/3.18
+5V.......4.97/4.89
+12V.....11.80/11.49
Didnt even make the VDimm-mod yet. So its cutting pretty close from those numbers with this 430W Antec ? Still running without CD-drive and i will add couple case fans.
PTK
i think you just have to mod your rails. 430W should be enough
Don't trust MBM, my sparkle 350was reading like 10.2 for my 12V, it was in actuality right about 11.9V.
yea your right. measure your rails with a multimeter
did you have the ATX 12V attached? :idea:Quote:

mine reads that if I dont plug it into my DFI (did it by mistake while changing out parts)
i've got everything attatched and mbm5 says my 5v rail is 3.1, 12v is 0.20, and 3.3v rail is 2.9, all way off. bios reports them as slightly higher than spec. 3.4, 5.2, 12.4.Quote:
