ePower Tech is at it again expanding their line of PSUs using their patent pending sliding power sockets, to allow compatibility with both 20 and 24 pin motherboards. What we have up for testing today is the ePower Xmicro 350W, designed for Small Form Factor machines.

Cons:

· Not all cables sleeved
· 350W is a minimum in today's markets

errrr I'm thinking a tiny power supply for tiny computers (small form factor) won't need more than 350w ... anything above 350w is for P4 3.6ghz EE's with 4 hard drives and SLI mode ...
350w will be able to handle whatever you can fit in a small form factor or whatever it is (motherboard components, ram, cpu, cooler, video card, 1 hard drive, 1 optical drive, USB devices) ... heck my 300w used to power my p4 2ghz with 2 hard drives and 2 optical drives with a sound card, video card, floppy drive, 3 ram sticks and tons of USB devices...

aaaaaaanyways.... just found that note odd !
