The company is presenting in Computex Enclosures New, updated suppliers, speakers - and a premium provider at a discounted price
High-efficiency power supplies are slowly becoming more popular, and at the current Computex show you can definitely see this trend with several companies showcasing power supply series that have won the 80 PLUS Platinum permit - the highest that can be obtained.
One of them is Antek (Antec) which introduced an early model of supplier in the "Platinum" class, which may be priced at only around $ 100 - a price that definitely makes the quality standard much more "popular". Suppliers with a Platinum permit must present a particularly high efficiency of 90 percent or more at any level of loading, which should assure buyers that the product is built from the highest quality components. There is almost no information on the provider in question, but we will certainly hope to hear more about it in the near future.
Until we find out more about the mysterious "Platinum" provider, we will have to settle for the updated series of High Current Gamer Plus providers that the company presents: in this series you will find suppliers of 550, 650 or 750 watts, equipped with an 80PLUS Bronze permit and offer, depending on their name, high current Of up to 40 amps on each of their 12-volt rails. The new vendors are an upgrade over High Current Gamer products The current ones are thanks to their modularity, with Antec saying that suppliers have a considerable number of optional connections that will suit any use you can think of - so, for example, you can connect up to 10 hard drives With these suppliers.
