Thread: GB Odin GT Eight Hundred Watt Power Supply Unit

Fine, imagine along with me for a time .. everytime I think of the product we try now Garfield arrive to mind. You familiar, the cartoon Garfield; see the badly abused dog in that cartoon is Odi.

Well, let's include the letter n to Odi and we are stumbling into a fresh product from GB technology which we will put to the try now. Now then, previous year we created you guys a promise. We said you that we had insert a concentrate on power supplies and would begin reviewing them more and more.

I imagine we definitely maintained our promise and we will continue to do so as they stay one of the most underestimated parts in a Computer.The industry too picked up on this, you have likely observed that fairly much any producer / brand offers a Power Supply Unit these days.

That for me is still more conclusion to review these units to show you to nice and the worse. Since so many manufacturers just offer PSU's, another element became apparent in this industry: It is acquiring more



competitive (which is a great thing). See, competition ever has several side-effects. Often due to the hefty competition the costs go down, build-quality goes up (companies want to offer the best) and previous but not least, product differentiation.

Product distinction is where we land at Gigabyte now. We have moved from the metal 350 watt PSUs from three year before toward half a nuclear power plant in the Computer, nicely painted in a beneficial choice of colors, high wattage/rampage, modular plan for good cable management and silent plans.

And only when you imagine there is nothing left to include as a fresh characteristic to a PSU, Gigabyte decided to drop a bomb on me and surprise me. Right, let's begin up with few energy supply 101 remarks ,but first let's answer you why a PSU is so darn substantial. Here is the deal: A PSU feeds every and all part in your computer with a good sufficient of recent.

A PSU requires to handle the power need in a so secure way, otherwise it will make instability during the system. That instability can answer as crashes, freezes, under performing software such as games that function badly when the graphics card is not fed sufficient power, and still resets or shuts down the system fully. Please do not underestimate the significant of the PSU!
