Category: Tutorials

Summary:
The 80 Plus certification for power supplies is around for a while, but recently they created three additional classes: Gold, Silver and Bronze. Learn what they really mean.

Here is a snippet:
"Efficiency is traditionally an overlooked power supply specification. It says how much power is being wasted while you are using your PC. Problem is that you are paying for this wasted power. The 80 Plus certification was created to allow consumers to know which power supplies are the most efficient ones and, as the name implies, guarantees that the power supply is able to present efficiency of 80%. With more and more manufacturers trying to design power supplies with efficiency well above 80%, they decided to create three new certification categories: Gold, Silver and Bronze. Learn what they really mean."

A news post would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
