Hipro5 1200W PSU going for retail soon.

http://www.octeamdenmark.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2090

Hipro5's still in the progress of making the 5KW PSU, first in the world.

5000Watt? that's crazy. Maybe will use in octal SLI/crossfire system in the future.

tat would be a very far future... current 1kW enough to power up 2 crossfire/SLi system d... they create such technology as a hobby or sport and buyers are usually enthusiasts or ppl who r 2 rich...

haha...5kw?..i think thats more than enough to power few sli or cross fire quad core system

Imagine running full load 24/7. Your electric bill charges will go through the roof!

Here's Hipro5's worklog.

Basically, the PSU will have triple 12v rails, having 1Kw running on each rails. It should to be a 4.5Kw, but when full load it will reach 5Kw or maybe 5Kw, and load way over 5Kw. Yet to see the final value.

, from the reading, seems the Odin quite good, but again... as my personal opinion/preference... i'm not into multiple rail and modular design ...

y not modular...?

nah... i just don't like the modular design... it's like against the natural PSU , same as wireless mouse, i don't like the wireless mouse, because of it's wireless... , well old skoll fella la..

There are some pros n cons between modular and normal psu. usually modular is a bit expensive but nothing gain in performance.

A 1KW psu nowadays is more than enough infact is still excessive for two 8800 Ultra in SLi or two 2900XT in crossfire.
Even if you run those cards in SLi @ Crossfire, they will only use not more than 700Watts of power.
Seriously, that 5KW psu is not going to be used at all.

Why?
Because technology nowadays are more into lower voltage consumption, not higher voltage consumption.

hipro is actually building the psu for his own needs and benching... teh saying goes, do watever it takes to get to the top" hes a legend for a reason, teh 5kw psu is made coz he doesnt believe in psu that are retails.. he uses three ziipys psu iirc and stil is disapointed, and tehse are self modded zippys that carry 13v on the 12v rail.... imagine hipro5 u are legend... :respect

Added on July 31, 2007, 12:23 pmbro 20 amps on each rails is plenty for a quad rail... its actually a good number.... the sinlge rails 1kilowats psus are around 70amps to 80 amps, and teh hinger ends wans at 90 amps... u soplit it by four u still get around 17.5 amps to 20amps to 22 amps respectiely... so it is weel within the range... although i do like single rails psus... i find it not much of a performance gain as i will never use teh full potential of this psu anyway...



p/s teh price is u guys want to knw for the fsp pls pm me...

Added on July 31, 2007, 12:28 pmyes this is true but u need to consider that these guys are hardore benchers , to tehm ln2 is not even extreme... and when they bench their rigs , lets say 2 x 8800 ultras, with a quad , will easily consume 800+ wats of power... so a 1kilowats psu is not enough for these guys... read hipros work log n u will understand y he is making htis psu, he answers this question many times....

Topower 600W non-modular and modular...
RM395 and RM520...
which 1 better...?

non modular is best.... but unle3ss u want looks over performance... modular gives higher resistance taht non modular... coz of the extra connectors will increase the number of passovers from pins....

yar... i agree also... summo non modular is cheaper and the seller give me great offer... 2day he gonna show Topower 600W modular and non modular, 800W and 1kW.... so i will snap some pics to share them wif u all...

i also think non modular is better...coz with the modular ..i think there will be some power loss on the connector there..but for a neat cable management the modular is better...

so stil up to the user..hehe..whether go for performance or the look

i notice tat modular version(named samurai wif single 12cm fan, strong wind but low noise... ) got slightly higher wattage la... and the cable is similar to RG-59 head... so thick and solid... alliminium finishing... it's really apple white including the cables... and for both of them the rails can be switched to combined or dual seperate... and the non modular 1 is limited edition(named M2 due to twin 8cm fan) wif 1 extra unique function which is the fan will turn for extra 3 minutes after shutdown to release heat... like turbo timer... and the non modular 1 got free GC protector which basically a fuse adapter to fix to ur GC 2x3 connector... 1000W is slightly bigger... not much diff than the others...
sssss.... really most solid PSU i've seen so far... although can't beat the looks of Gigabyte's Odin...
above all.... i notice tat they are very very similar to Tagan... but without Tagan's trademark... and they say they won be selling Tagan products cuz might clash wif Topower... it seems tat Topower wanna come out from the shell they hid... Non-modular 600W(M2) is RM420 while modular(Samurai) 600W is RM510... any1 interested can order through me but COD or C&C in Klang to KL area only...
1KW is RM1250... can't get any info for these units cuz these are the ori unit of Tagan...

didn't manage to take much pics as we were on a rush doing a couple of tests as the seller was rushing...

woot..corsair 450W..single rail 12V..looks like psu for me 450W is good enuff for me

Wah, only RM395 for 600WAtt? U get from ur supplier eh? Going to do bulk orders? Topower can consider at least Tier3 PSU.
