Interesting new PSU, EVGA Supernova G3 550W
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2017 7:24 pm
EVGA has release for some years now very good PSU, and its not surprise since their OEM is Superflower for most of their PSUs, their EVGA G2 and P2 imo are some of the best for the money, both in noise and power delivery. Today i saw the they have now out the new Generation 3, and it has some very nice things,
1) The price, G2 was already very good at it, but now you can get a 550W G3 fully modular for $80.
2) Its length, while still being ATX and having an 130mm fan on it, the length of the PSU is 150mm, which imo its pretty good, hell all of the G3 seems to be 150mm even the 1000W, this might play nice with small cramp builds like Fractal Node304 or Raijintek Metis.
3) 7 year warranty, and knowing EVGA their customer service is pretty good.
Overall seems like a very good offering, but i don't own one nor i have tested them, and there are very few user reviews, really hope SPCR gets a sample of this as it might become a very viable alternative to Corsair RM550X.
In case someone is interested on reading more, here some reviews,
