As the design of the Type-M 4M630 unit is nearly the same as the design of the Type-R 5M680 unit, it was expected to see the unit’s performance being similar to its Type-R counterpart. What we didn’t expect was that the Type-M unit seems to behave better. The voltage regulation circuit is just as good, but the problem with the slightly weaker 3rd 12V line is not present on the Type-M unit; all four 12V lines appear to be equally strong.
The efficiency of the Type-M 4M630 is excellent while the unit is operating at near 50% of its rated load, reaching 85%. Below 30% and at 100% load the efficiency seems to degrade slightly and goes below 80%, however this is still respectible. The good efficiency keeps the unit cooler, thus quieter as the fan does not have to speed up in order to cool it down, increases the overall reliability of the unit and will slightly reduce your electric bill as well.
