Hello all. I'm planning to build a SLI gamming rig using the K8N Neo4
Platinum/SLI motherboard and I'm concerned about what PSU (power supply
Unit) to use. Instead of paying $175 for something like the Silverstone
ST65ZF 650W or the Enermax EG701AX Noisetaker 600W Nvidia certified PSU. I
found the Enermax EG565P-VE FMA 535W SLI PSU for $89 on ebay which is not
certified by Nvidia but is configured for SLI . Here are the specs.
Specifications:
a.. Model: EG565P-VE FMA 2.0
b.. Maximum Power: 535W (support both 24pins and 20pins motherboards)
c.. Voltage Rails:
a.. +12V: 34A
a.. +12V1: 18A
b.. +12V2: 18A
b.. -12V: 0.8A
c.. +5V: 32A
d.. +5VSB: 2.5A
e.. +3.3V: 32A
d.. Input Voltage: 90V~135V or 90V~265V
e.. Input Frequency Range: 47Hz~63Hz
f.. Input Current: 40A/115V and 80A/230V max. during cold start
g.. Hold-up time: 17ms at 115VAC or 230VAC, full load
h.. Over Voltage Protection: +5V: 5.5V~7.0V; +3.3V:3.76V~4.3V; +12V &
+12V2: 13.4V~15.6V
i.. Over Load Protection: 110~160% of max load
j.. Over current Protection: +3.3V: 55A (max); +5V: 48A (max); +12V1 &
+12V2: 20A (max)
k.. Over Temperature Protection: Operating Ambient 10ºC~40ºC, Storage
Ambient -40ºC~70ºC
l.. Humidity:
a.. Operating: to 85% relative humidity, non condensing at 25ºC
b.. Storage: to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing at 50ºC
m.. MTBF: Greater than 100K hours at 70% of full rated load; 230VAC / 50Hz
input; 25ºC ambient
n.. EMC: EN55022 Class B, EN61000-4-2 Class B, EN61000-4-3 Class A,
EN61000-4-4 Class B, EN61000-4-5 Class B, EN61000-4-6 Class A, EN61000-4-8
Class A, EN61000-4-11 Class B, FCC Part 15 & Part 2, CNS 13438 Class B
o.. Safety: Approval UL, cUL, TÜV, CB
p.. Dimension: W150 x H86 x D140 (mm)
Connections:
a.. 1 x 20/24-pin Mainboard
b.. 1 x 4-pin P4
c.. 2 x 6-pin PCI Express
d.. 4 x SATA
e.. 7 x 4-pin Molex
f.. 2 x 4-pin FDD
g.. 1 x Fan Monitor
and I'm thinkin why should I pay $100 for a Nvidia certified psu when the
one for $89 will work just as well. I need your imputs on this and anyone
who is using this psu, what do you think of it ?. problems etc. Also I need
to know if the 20/24-pin mainboard connection from the psu is conpatable
with the K8N Neo4 Platinum.. Your prompt replies will be appreciated.
Thanks
