Introduction
FSP (also known as Fortron-Source) have released a great number of new consumer power supplies during recent months. We already reviewed some of their new products from their mainstream Epsilon series and the passively cooled Zen series a while ago. Today we are going to have a look at a product from their premium series, the
Everest 800W 80Plus unit.
At the time of this review the Everest series consists of no less than 11 products, with their power output ranging from a “measly” 400W all the way up to 1010W. FSP is also the only company who has two products of the same series sharing the exact same power output and base design, but of different electrical efficiency. For example the company also offers an 85Plus (80Plus Bronze) version of the same Everest 800W 80Plus unit which we are going to review today.
