Introduction
Forton-Source (FSP) have released a huge number of new consumer power supplies during recent months. We have reviewed products from their mainstream
Epsilon series and the passively cooled
Zen series a while ago and we had our first acquaintance with their premium series with our review of the
Everest 800W 80Plus unit a few weeks back.
Today we will test and review yet another product of the Everest series, the 400W version of the same PSU we recently reviewed.
At the time of this review the Everest series consists of no less than 11 products, with their power output ranging from a modest 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 all Everest units with an output between 500W and 800W. The Everest 400W is only available as an 80Plus version though.
