    Re: News - Sapphire launches PURE series power supplies

    Are they manufacturing these themselves or using an OEM like Corsair do with Seasonic and CWT?

    Re: News - Sapphire launches PURE series power supplies

    Why do modular designs have so many connected cabels. My Zalman ZM-850 is modular design but has 4 SATA cables, 2 x 8 pin GPU cables among the usual power connectors. I would like to see design with only the motherboard power cables.

    I would want a modular PSU to be completely modular, including the motherboard cable.

    I would also expect to be able to buy accessory cables fairly easily, so you could buy an extra long mobo cable, or an extra short one.

    This would make a lot of systems far more organised and far far neater.

    But that is all I believe. Not exactly a great choice.

    Surely I can't be the only one that would like this? Would also make it easier to assemble a PC as you are just installing a box, then connecting cables. You don't have to deal with a box with a heavy unwieldy tail.

    Re: News - Sapphire launches PURE series power supplies

    Watercooled beat me to it, but Ultra's are hard to find in the UK

    In that first pic it show 4 models, but the 625w one is missing from the table.
    What's the numbers on that one?

    and they do look like rebranded Enermax

    six 12v rails all rated at 30a on all models yet not even the 1250w model could output a full 180a (6x30)
    My guess is that they are not fully independant rails.

    The 625 already existed under the FirePSU brand, check the sapphire site for the specds.
