High end power supplies are becoming more popular, and more necessary, for PC gamers and enthusiasts. These users demand a power supply that can power systems that may include dual video cards, multiple hard drives, USB devices, dual core processors, and perhaps dual DVD-ROMs. When these components are running, the power supply unit (PSU) needs to be able to power every component without failing. A PSU needs to be strong enough to handle everything thrown at it without allowing the system to become unstable, and this is one of the key components that should not be neglected while choosing components for a new system.
Zippy (EMACS) manufactures a variety of high quality products that include consumer electronics, surveillance, electronic components, fine ceramic, and power supplies. From that list we can see that power supplies are the best fit for a review at Bigbruin.com, and they have sent over two models, GSM-6600P(G1) and PSL-6720P(G1), designed with the purpose of powering a server, workstation, or high end PC.
Before getting into the official business of the review, let's look at some published data on these two power supplies, as provided by the Zippy (EMACS) website...
