What's an ideal Christmas? For us, it's getting a PC Power & Cooling power supply. PC Power & Cooling is one of the oldest power supply manufacturers; and well known for their high performance enthusiast power supplies -- representing the industry standard in personal computer power supply engineering. After OCZ purchased them, they continued their reputation of high quality products with excellent OCZ warranty and support. Being that, I still held some reserve on PC Power & Cooling power supplies over the years. I understand their take on performance in power, but I don't like their emission in noise. When OCZ asked me to take a look at PC Power & Cooling's Silencer 610W power supply, it sure gained my interest -- how will a power supply with perpendicular 80mm fan implementation in the back be a 'silent' power supply? While at APH Networks we don't actually review-review power supplies, as we don't have the testing equipment to make a real review, let's take this one apart and see what's inside in our report today.
