Super Flower Golden Silent 500W Semi-Modular Passive Power Supply

Review

 

If you want a truly silent system there are a lot of things to

consider purchasing: a passive graphics card, a passive CPU cooler,

SSD storage instead of mechanical hard drives and more importantly a

passively cooled power supply. The advantages of a passively cooled

power supply are numerous but the main advantage is that unlike most

power supplies that will get noisy above 50% load a passive power

supply never gets noisy. Other advantages include the fact that

passive power supplies tend to require higher quality components in

order to keep heat output down so when you buy a passive power supply

you also know you're buying quality and an efficient unit. Today I am

taking a look at my second passively cooled power supply but this

time from a brand not many people have heard of. Super Flower may not

be well known as a consumer brand but Super Flower already feature

inside many high-end power supplies sold by big brands, EVGA is the

most notable one of those that springs to mind. In the UK market at

least Super Flower are deciding to go at it as a standalone brand

selling a wide range of their power supplies through Overclockers UK

at very competitive prices

. In this review I will be looking at Super Flower's Golden Silent

500W passive power supply. This is an interesting power supply for a

number of reasons: because it is 80 Plus Platinum rated, because it

has a whopping big heatsink built into the PSU but also because the

design has been built in its entirety from the ground up by Super

Flower.
