The most vital component in a high end computer is the power supply. It is the one piece of hardware in your box that can bring down your system with one failure. Under extreme circumstances it can result in fried components including anything that draws power from the PSU. A power supply is often overlooked when building a high end computer system.
When you hear the company name Sunbeam you probably think of kitchen appliances and Martha Stewart. However, today I am reviewing a power supply from Sunbeamtech who in addition to power supplies produce cases, fans, lighting, cooling, and other peripherals for any PC enthusiast.
From the Sunbeamtech website:
Launched as a promising new company in the field in 2000, Sunbeam Company specialized in developing cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL), and furthermore extended to manufacture various modding equipments. Throughout the years, we now expand our product coverage to provide pioneering and fancy computer application at all aspects, while focusing on, but not limiting to, cooling systems and computer cases. Our mission is to satisfy PC players all over the world who are tired of boring traditional computer impressions and longing for experiencing the excitements of revolutionary hardware designs.
