PC Power & Cooling is one of the most reputable high performance PSU manufacturers, if not the most reputable. This good reputation is no doubt helped by them not offering budget products, only mainstream and high end models. When OCZ bought PC P&C nearly a year ago many thought that the quality of their units would somehow degrade however every unit they released since then had an excellent design and really the move to the OCZ camp has had little impact. Today we will take a look on a unit from the Silencer series which is aimed at mainstream users, the Silencer 610W EPS12V. Interestingly the Silencer 610W EPS12V is the first PC P&C unit we have received that clearly mentions OCZ technology on it, let us have a closer look at it and see how good the latest mainstream PC P&C units really are.[COLOR=#000000][/COLOR]

Nice review, straightforward and solid as always.

Two years ago, owning a PC Power and Cooling PSU was just a dream at the prices they were at then - not any more!

I can vouch for the quiet too - even when overclocking, the PSU runs cool and is inaudible unless I stick my head behind the machine.

Overall, because of it's nearly flawless voltage delivery, quiet operation, exceptionally low relative price (others are now lowering prices to meet it - great for all of us...), 40C temp. rating, 5 year warranty, and an included diagnostic printout (!) I believe this PSU is the absolute best on the market for its output.

Now watch mine fry itself tomorrow.
