    Enermax to stop making PSU's, will only make stickers?

    When I wrote news about the (than new) Enermax Revolution X't, I thought it may finally be the replacement of Pro/Modu 82+/87+. Now after foreing reviews I can tell that right now, even though my review is not yet finished - it is made by Channel Well.

    Just placing another sticker even on expensive PSU, I think Enermax is just resigning on making power supplies. They are not able to bring what the old PSUs did, not mentioning they are not as wonderfull as they used to be as I keep getting even those than expensive PSUs dead. And now they are selling cheap golden crap, filled with crapxons, made by CWT almost for the price of their own Revolution 87+. I guess there is mroe money in that if the failure rate is not that much higher.

    Tell me I am wrong here please.

      Just picked up a Revolution X't in 430W, and can simply peer inside and see CapXon.... yep, the best part about this PS is the stickers....

          i have already concluded that the only supply's worth buying full-price are SeaSonic.
          simply because you know they arent something else inside.

              Digifanless is custom design and also two new lines loosely based on the DF platform will be custom design, just CWT fabricated.

                  Seven Leagues Slot Machine stop button issues
                  by x_orange90_x
                  I don't know if anyone here has experience with Japanese slot (pachislo) machines, but I sure hope so. I bought this machine last week in semi-working order. It would play and the reels would spin, but the stop buttons would not stop them at all. I found that the high-frequency filtering tantalum capacitor was bad on the reel stop board, along with the fuse being blown. I replaced the fuse and removed the capacitor. I haven't replaced the cap yet because I didn't have one on hand, but it's not necessary for the operation of the machine.

                  The issue now is the Stop buttons are intermittently...

                  Testing ATX PSUs under load - Does loading the ATX 24 pin also load EPS & PCIE?
                  by AJ847.63e
                  Hi Folks,

                  Just wanted to clear up a misunderstanding of mine (or what I expect is one). Isn't the 12V rail from the 24 pin, EPS and PCIE separated? IE if I put a power resistor on the ATX 12V pin that is not going to load, thus tell me if the EPS or PCIE rails are fine?

                  I was recently watching ArIs from Hardware Busters video on how to properly test ATX PSUs without using 5 figure Croma substations.

                  The PCB adapter he used breaks out the 12, 5 and 3.3V pins from the 24 pin and gives you banana plugs to connect to. That is a bit useless is it not? Aren't...

                  JVC VCR HR-S9850 fast FF/REW & Stop problem
                  by Thermaltake
                  Hi, when tape is doing fast FF or fast REW and I hit stop, right reel stops almost instantly, and left reel is still spinning for second or maybe half second. And you can hear that crackling when tape stops and it wrinkle a bit on the side where pinch roller is I think before it. Then I do a little REW or FF to tight the track back because in that moment it became loose on pullies. I can't find out what's going on and how to fix it, I tried to replace that left brake arm but still same, everything is clean in vcr, new pinch roller, belts, felts. Any idea what this problem could be ?

                  Asrock B365 Pro4 PSU acts as short but no short
                  by Lamer13
                  The PSUs (several good PSUs tried) act as the 12v CPU Line is shorted - PSUs start and stop right away and second try through pwbtn is impossible unless psu off-on first. When CPU line not plugged PSUs run normally. This happens only when cpu line plugged. The mosfets are not shorted. Tested every single one of them between drain and source - high side mosfets - 1.3megaohm, low side - 100ohms. Between 12v and ground on the cpu connector - normal capacitor rise from ohms to about 1megaohm. All measurements are without a cpu (btw I tried with 2 different cpus - same result).
                  So I suspect...
