The OEM is Channel Well Technology (CWT), and the platform’s code name is GPX. I remember the GPX platform before the ATX v3.x era, primarily used in medium-price products. DeepCool was among the first to adopt this platform, which has been upgraded to support the challenging transient response scenarios of PCIe CEM 5.0 and 5.1 standards.
Some might wonder how a full-bridge platform can be less expensive than a half-bridge CSZ platform. Well, the answer is simple. CWT used four lower-quality FETs, which cost less than two high-quality ones, dropping the production cost. Moreover, in this unit, the fan is provided by a budget OEM, Martech, instead of the usual one that CWT has, Hong Hua.
While the FETs on the primary side are not up to Infineon’s quality, Chemi-Con, an excellent Japanese manufacturer, provides the bulk cap, which could have even lower capacity since the ATX v3.1 spec is looser on the hold-up time requirements. The caps on the secondary side are by Chengx, the electrolytic ones. For those skeptical about this manufacturer, it is one of the largest in China, making caps for all popular Japanese cap brands. Moreover, the PSU uses many polymer caps provided by FPCAP, a good brand, for ripple filtering.
My only objection to this unit is the Martech fan, which might use a rifle bearing but is still inferior to Hong Hua’s products. A simple fan change can bump the price by several dollars, though, which can affect the production cost notably. Only time will tell if this fan can outlive the long-provided warranty (ten years).
Deepcool pn750m
Superflower leadex III GOLD 650watt
Seasonic CORE GM 650watt
Which one is the best??
Superflower leadex III GOLD 650watt
This deepcool pn750m , modern but mediocre
Or
Superflower leadex 650 III gold… still atx 2.32 but good riple and soon?
Please need advise
The deepcool cheaper maybe 10 bucks in my country
