Seasonic X-Series 560 W Power Supply Review
Overload Tests
Contents
Below you can see the maximum we could pull from this power supply. Because of its incredibly overspec’ed components, we could pull 730 W from it and it was still presenting extremely high efficiency (87%), with low noise and ripple levels, and voltages still within 3% from their nominal values. Impressive. We couldn’t pull more than that because the power supply shuts down above 730 W, showing that its protections are working just fine.
