PC Power & Cooling 1kw Turbo-Cool TC1KW PSU
Conclusion
Published: 19th May 2006 | Source: PC Power & Cooling | Price: |
The results given by the Turbo-Cool on the power supply load tests nothing short of stunned me. The OC3D PSU tester which normally leaves most power supplies crying for mercy was unable to make any noticeable hit on the Turbo-Cool's voltages.
At this point in the review I could comment on the lack of fancy packaging, or the different coloured ATX connectors, but I'm not going to. Why? Because the PCP&C Turbo-Cool 1kw has never once claimed or tried to be anything more than a rock solid power supply.
If you're looking for a power supply that power any combination of PC both present and future, and have a spare $500, you should look no further than the Turbo-Cool 1kw.
Pro's
- Rock solid power and plenty of it
- Ability to power any kind of graphics setup.
- Very little heat escape into PC case
- Adjustable potentiometers
- High Efficiency
- Sleeved Cables
- Plenty of connectors
- 5yr Warranty
Con's
- May be over priced for some
- May not fix some ATX cases
A big thank you to PC Power & Cooling for providing this unit for review :)

Yes we do indeed

I can say that I have never seen a PSU as stable as my pc p&c 1kw. It hardly varies at all. I have completely loaded the thing up before with 6 dvd burners, 10 hds, 2 7900gtxs, my venus, 8x120mm fans, 4x80mm fans, and all wc stuff without even the slightest hiccup. It is massive though and doesn't fit in some cases. ok most cases The fact that there is only one FDD power adapter is a down fall with DFI mobos and probably one of my only gripes against the psu. Overall I LOVE THIS PSU!

looks like a good psu but nothing i would buy.
waste of money on a midrange setup
would probably fit my case if i move my dvdburner to the bottom cage.

Good to hear that owners of this PSU share my views on it overall
Great review mate... It's the only PSU I'd put in a new build. Mine was so outrageously awesome that I'd never think twice about owning one or trying something different.
Yes, the price tag is definately up there for a power supply... But no other PSU can supply the power that this monster can. And it does it with ease.
PCP&C FTW! :bow:

hooray!wow on top of everyone, even magazines...very well done!
Congratz mate!! That's awesome, and a HUGE step in the right direction for OC3D.
The only thing I might suggest, is that the logo u give out to people to use on their page such as the one PCP&C used, is to add the url to our site somewhere

That was their decision not ours. I think they SHOULD link to our review but I dunno....
Yeah it would have been nice to have a link to our site for the review - but if you look at the other reviews, they are all copied on to their site.
Not sure why, maybe so it doesn't get lost or changed... But hey its their perogative
