SilverStone SX750
SilverStoneTek is a company best known for its high-quality cases but its product lines extend into other components such as cooling, power supplies (of various model lines that range from 300W to 1350W in DC output), fans, and storage solutions. SilverStone has built up this impressive product repertoire since its founding in 2003. For this review, we are looking at the SXF750/SFX750-PT (model number SST-SX750-PT) which is one of SilverStone’s SFX (small form factor) products. It is produced in conjunction with Enhance.
Enhance Electronics Co. Ltd. was founded more than 30 years ago in 1986. While a major power supply OEM Enhance is not nearly as well known to most users as some other OEMs as its core business focus has been outside of the desktop market in areas such as servers, embedded, and telecom markets. However, its products have started to surface in the US consumer realm in the last year or so under the likes of SilverStone, Silverpower, Antec, Cooler Master, and GIGABYTE, as well as the occasional Enhance branded model.
These Little Guys Just Keep Getting Bigger And Bigger!
The SilverStone SX750 is the third SFX unit we have seen from SilverStone here at TheFPSReview and the capacity just keeps going up! This particular unit is probably a bit more interesting than the most recent SFX unit we saw from SilverStone on that basis alone. Now, since this product is coming to us from what is SilverStone’s wheelhouse, we have great expectations from this tiny power supply and what SilverStone can wring out of it. However, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, let’s first see what SilverStone has to say about this unit:
ï¿ Standard SFX form factor
ï¿ Silent running 92mm dual ball bearing fan with minimum 0dBA
ï¿ All Japanese capacitors
ï¿ High efficiency with 80 PLUS Platinum certification
ï¿ Class-leading single +12V rail
ï¿ Strict ±3% voltage regulation and low ripple & noise
ï¿ 100% modular cables
ï¿ All cables with flexible flat arrays
Let’s move on now and see what we can expect when a user purchases the SilverStone SX750 power supply in retail in terms of documentation, accessories, cable count, rail layout, output characteristics, and general build quality.
