NZXT. While perhaps not a familiar name to some, they are a name that brings me to the edge of my seat every time it is mentioned. They burst onto the mainstream production market of high end computer products with their stylish cases a few years ago, and as of late have done the same with their power supplies.
In case you haven't heard of NZXT, they were founded in 2004 and have locations in China and Taiwan. Since making it to the North American market, NZXT has earned a lot of esteem from me with their superb quality, as well as customer support. Their latest creation (or should I say monster) is in the form of one of their "Precise" power supplies. Now before you say "big deal a new power supply", it should be noted that this is not just an ordinary power supply. This baby comes loaded for bear with 1200 Watts of power to supply even the most power hungry gaming machine. NZXT has been kind enough to send over their biggest and baddest power supply to date, and I will be going in depth with this unit to give you the complete run down on this beast.
