*/We love the fact Hiper has tried to do something different - an
actually useful box, a different cable routing style, a unique look, a
USB hub with some ports and a different airflow dynamic: all of which
deserve credit, even if we don't agree with every decision made.
This would probably suit many systems our readers build: something like
an overclocked dual or even quad core, single graphics card and a couple
of hard drives, then this PSU should fit perfectly - you'll easily be
hitting 50 percent load matching its peak efficiency and very quiet
running. We have seen "more" in terms of other 600-700W models - in full
load efficiency and with more PCI-Express cables (and modular options),
but the Hiper Type R II 680W is still a pretty damn solid buy.
You've got to love the bling to buy it though and that will undoubtedly
turn some of you off. It's a shame Hiper insists on the LEDs in the
black model too, because a choice or even just the option to turn them
off would have been nice! In our opinion, forget the blue one - it's way
to expensive for essentially just a paint job - and grab the black one
instead if you're tempted by it./
