The new Modu87+ and Pro87+ PSU series set new standards in the popular 500 to 800W wattage range. They offer up to 93 per cent efficiency as well as virtually silent cooling and will certainly occupy the centre stage of the Enermax booth on this year’s CeBIT in Germany. Building on its industry renowned reliability and quality, Enermax will also introduce its latest development: redundant PSU’s for industrial PC’s and servers. CeBIT visitors will have an exclusive look at seven new redundant PSU systems.

Solid Gold Power
The new Enermax PSU series Modu87+ and Pro87+ have already gained many awards from renowned international hardware magazines. The editors are not only convinced by the outstanding efficiency of up to 93 per cent (80PLUS® Gold certified), but also by the virtually silent cooling: Due to the innovative fan control, the rotation speed of integrated Enermax Twister fan slows down to just 330 RPM at low load, and 1,000 RPM at full load. For this reason, the Modu87+ and Pro87+ PSU’s are the best choice not only for cost-conscious energy-saving systems, but also for ultra-quiet PC’s. Three 12V rails ensure reliable and stable power supply.

The PSU Upgrade for the Demands of 2010 PC’s
Recently, Enermax announced the upgrade of its popular PSU series Modu82+, Pro82+ and LibertyECO. Users can identify the upgraded PSU’s by looking for the “II” name suffix at the end of the name. What has been changed exactly? All PSU’s from 400W upwards now possess at least two 6+2-pin (8-pin) PCI-E connectors, which will be required for the new generation of high-performance DirectX11 graphics cards. The CPU 12V power cable has been extended to 60cm and, in addition, Enermax has integrated two new features: “HeatGuard” for cooling and the patented “CordGuard”. Apart from that, the LibertyECO II series will be available with one additional higher wattage model at 720W, which will have its exclusive premiere also on the Enermax CeBIT booth.

Redundant PSU: Enermax Broadens the Scope of Business
Enermax’ PSU’s continually set industry standards for stable power, reliability and safety – optimal preconditions for the ambitious power supply for industrial PC’s or servers. Furthermore, Enermax has already built an excellent worldwide sales and service network, which is essential for flexible and quick response to customers’ demand. At the introduction of this new product segment, Enermax exclusively presents seven redundant PSU systems at CeBIT.

More details about the redundant PSU’s and other new Enermax products, you will come to know at CeBIT in Hannover, Germany. We are looking forward to meeting you:

Enermax cases are real eye-catchers. Sometimes they impress with their clear-cut and prominent design, sometimes with their pure elegance. But something all Enermax cases have in common: high quality, maximum usability and a well-conceived cooling system. The new cases, which Enermax will present on this year’s CeBIT, continue with this line.

The monotonous and boring cases, which bore the name “PC” a couple of years ago, have served their time. In our days, the design of PC cases plays an important role. Who wants to put a grey plastic case into his living-room or even take it to a LAN party? One puts emphasis on simple elegance, the other one is searching for a spectacular gaming case. On the Enermax booth at this year’s CeBIT, both will find their ideal PC case. Enermax presents two completely different Midi Towers and one high-end Big Tower:

ECA5010: The New Flagship
Many are waiting with bated breath for the premiere of the new Enermax Big Tower. The high-end gaming case ECA5010 appears with an innovative and high-performance cooling concept, which can be adjusted flexibly according to the system requirements. The solid and clear-cut design leaves no doubt: The ECA5010 will be the new Enermax flagship case.

More details about the ECA5010 and other new Enermax products, you will come to know at CeBIT. We are looking forward to meeting you:

The huge "FAN" logo made of 107 Apollish fans has been one of the most popular photo scenes on last year's CeBIT. Also this year, Enermax will show several attractions: Amongst other things, two new fan series will have its premiere.

With the launch of patented Twister Bearing Technology in 2008, the Enermax fan segment made the final breakthrough. Since then, "Air Cooling by Enermax" became increasingly popular. Enermax already offers a broad range of quiet and high-performance case fans for various customer needs. On this year's CeBIT, visitors are looking forward to the premiere of two new outstanding Enermax fan series:

More information about the new Enermax products, you will come to know on CeBIT. We are looking forward to meeting you:

Modu82+, Pro82+ and LibertyECO belong currently to the most famous and popular PSU series on the market. With the PC demands of 2010, Enermax has now upgraded these three series with several new and attractive features:

DXXI Ready!
In the face of the inevitable upgrade of many PC systems, gamers wanting high-performance DirectX11 graphics cards, require new demands of power. Enermax changed every single 6-pin PCI-Express connector to the upgraded 6+2-pin (8-pin) instead. All Enermax PSUs from 400W upwards possess at least two 6+2-pin (8-pin) PCI-Express connectors, which will be required for the new generation of DirectX11 graphics cards, coming on the market in 2010.

HeatGuard
As a feature of high-end series Revolution85+, Enermax introduced the “HeatGuard” cooling function. By keeping the PSU fan running for 30 to 60 seconds after shut down of the PC, it dissipates the remaining heat left over. HeatGuard offers an additional protection of system components and helps to prolong system’s lifetime.

CordGuard
Everyone knows this possible situation, especially on LAN events or in crowded rooms: while sitting at the computer, someone stumbles over the AC power cord and your PC shuts off suddenly. Enermax has a remedy for this problem: a small, patented metal clip. By clamping the AC cord tightly to the PSU case, it avoids accidental shutdowns of the PC.

Extented CPU 12V Power Cable
In more and more PC cases, the power supply is installed at the bottom. As a consequence, the distance between PSU and CPU socket becomes longer, causing the 12V power cable to stretch. Therefore, Enermax has updated its PSUs by equipping all new series with 60cm CPU 12V cables. This gives users more flexibility in assembling their PC systems.

Enermax 20 Years Anniversary: Free Twister Case Fan
20 years ago, a group of skilled IT specialists founded the Enermax Technology Corporation. In this new company, they had a vision: High-quality, high-performance and durable PC components for ambitious and high-tech oriented customers. Within a short time, Enermax had emerged into a leading manufacturer of power supplies, cases, fans and peripherals. The company possesses its own research and development centre, as well as two factories – an important basis for global success of the Enermax brand. This way, Enermax is able to ensure high quality, regular advancement and unique design of its products. As a thank you for the long-standing loyalty and customer trust, Enermax presents a Limited Edition of its new PSU series, Modu82+ II, Pro82+ II and LibertyECO II. From these three series, all power supplies will be delivered with a free 12cm case fan that features the patented Twister Bearing Technology.

The new Modu82+ II (625W), Pro82+ II (425W/525W/625W) and LibertyECO II (500W/620W) power supply series are available immediately. Upgrades of the remaining watt models will be available soon.

Ilya "TiN" Tsemenko from the Xtremelabs.org team has already gained international fame for his unique overclocking skills. Now he managed to set a new CPU clock-speed world record. By the usage of liquid nitrogen, TiN pushed an Intel Celeron D 347 to 8.20GHz – more than 2.5 times higher than official CPU frequency of 3.06GHz! To reach such an outstanding score, TiN removed the CPU heatspreader, which allowed him to lower the temperature up to -186°C. Not all PSU are able to handle such extreme conditions, but the Enermax Revolution85+ 1250W can. TiN: “The Enermax Revolution85+ provides extremely stable voltage – an essential condition to compete for new records with world’s best overclockers.”

Forum source with authors thread

Enermax sets new standards for most demanded PSU wattage range between 500 and 800W: Thanks to its new high-performance AC technology, the Modu87+ and Pro87+ PSU series reach an incredible peak efficiency of up to 93 per cent at 230V. Record-breaking results Enermax achieves as well with the patented cooling technology of new PSU. The path-breaking fan control guarantees optimal and silent running due to unmatched 330 RPM at low load and a maximum of 1,000 RPM at full load.

The Race for Highest PSU Efficiency
During the AC-to-DC conversion inside a computer power supply, a part of the power input naturally gets lost. The demand for the minimal loss allowing the most economical consumption of energy and resources has led to the introduction of the 80PLUS® certificate in 2005. Since then, PSU manufacturers have successfully reduced the power loss due to refinements in the latter DC stage of electrical transfer. One example is the frequently adopted high-performance AHD² topology of the Enermax Revolution85+. All current options for further improvements of the DC stage have been exhausted. For this reason, PSU engineers began to focus on the development of more efficient AC technologies. While a difficult task to undertake, manufacturers have struggled with high production costs or poor DC regulation.

Modu87+ & Pro87+ - The Clue
With new PSU series Modu87+ and Pro87+ Enermax’ engineers made the breakthrough: The Dynamic Hybrid Transformer Topology, a combination of three forward-looking innovations, significantly reduces energy loss on the first AC stage. It is based on a “resonant” topology, which is similarly already used in LCD monitors. But until now, this technology was entirely static and unstable to be translated into PC power supplies. Enermax worked to eliminate the static nature thanks to a unique, dynamic chain of capacitors and transformers. The groundbreaking, flexible AC technology is an optimal solution for the varying power consumption of PC components. Given this breakthrough technology, the Modu87+ and Pro87+ reach a peak efficiency of up to 93 per cent at 230V (80PLUS® Gold certified).

Background information about the Dynamic Hybrid Transformer Topology

Sensational Low Fan Speed
„Air Cooling by Enermax“ has built an excellent reputation. The Enermax case fans with patented Twister Bearing Technology are renowned for powerful yet silent cooling. No wonder, that the innovations of the Enermax cooling segment find a more and more frequent use in PSU too. The Modu87+ and Pro87+ series are no exception. The integrated gold-coloured Enermax fan guarantees smooth and silent operation. Moreover, Enermax developed a new patented fan control, which slows down the rotation speed to just 330 RPM at low load – that’s practically inaudible. Even at full load, the integrated 13,9cm fan does not exceed 1.000 RPM. Yet again, the Modu87+ and Pro87+ set new gold standards in performance and noise control for the ultimate PC power solution.

The modular PSU series Netzteilserie Modu87+ is available with 500, 600, 700 and 800W (MSRP: starting from 135.90 Euro / £115.90 incl. VAT). Non-modular PSU of Pro87+ series come in 500 and 600W (MSRP: starting from 119.90 Euro / £99.90 incl. VAT). The new Enermax PSU will be for sale from the end of January on.

3rd prize: Enermax ECO80+ 350 Watt

Closed for participation. The lucky winners will be announced soon.

Before buying a new power supply many users must face the question, how many watts they need for their PC system. The specifications of PC components are often not exact enough to calculate the power consumption of the whole system. Therefore users decide true to the motto “Better too much than too little”. As a result, users buy oversized PSU for their systems. These PSU reach maximum 20 percent of their capacity. Indeed, the most recent and high efficient PSU like the Enermax Revolution85+ with up to 91 percent efficiency, achieve such peaks at around 50 percent load.

PSU Calculator Saves Time and Money

The new Enermax PSU Calculator helps users to count the power consumption of their systems – reliably and exactly. It is based on a large and constantly updated database with all possible and available system components from CPU to graphics cards to case fans. Thus users do not have to waste their time to look up the power consumption of each system component. In addition they save money, because for most usual office and gaming PC systems 400 to 600 Watt are enough.
