Antec True Power Trio 430 Watt - Features and Specifications
(Page 3 of 4 )
Here is a quick rundown of some more of the features of this power supply. I want to point out the five-year warranty that goes along with this PSU. Antec was really good with the warranty issues I have had to deal with, and five years is a long time in the computer would.
AQ5 - 5 year warranty Universal Input, automatically adjusts for 100V to 240V power grids.
Active Power Factor Correction (PFC) for environmentally friendlier power.
Three 12V output circuits provide added system stability.
Accurate power rating allows TruePower Trio to deliver its full rated power, 24 hours a day rated at 50ºC.
Up to 85% efficiency 120mm low noise cooling fan
Fan Only power connectors allow TruePower Trio to control case fan speeds, reducing total system noise.
Dedicated outputs for stable output and less ripple noise.
Feedback loop circuits for tighter load regulation (±3%) to maintain accurate voltage to all components.
Heavy duty protection circuitry prevents damage resulting from short circuits (SCP), power overloads (OPP), over voltages (OVP), and under voltages (UVP)
4 SATA connectors for Serial ATA drives.
One PCI-E connectors for PCI-Express video cards.
MTBF: 80,000 hours at 25°C.
Safety approvals: UL, CUL, FCC, TÜV, CE, C-tick, CCC, CB.
Power Factor value up to 99% Gold plated connectors for superior conductivity.
Dimensions:
• 3.4" (H) x 5.9" (W) x 5.5" (D)
• 8.6cm (H) x 14.9cm (W) x 14cm (D)
Net weight:
• 4.05 lbs.
• 1.84 kg
Here is a quick look at the output ratings. I'm puzzled by the need for three 12v rails on this power supply. On the bigger versions this would be a benefit because they support dual graphics cards, but this little beast has no chance of powering dual 8800 GTXes. I'm thinking it's more of a production factor than anything else. Keeping the same design throughout the product line would be cost beneficial, and with the name "Trio" I expect to have three of something.
