A freebee. Usually $30 on newegg, lets crack her open and see what she's made of...
Oh dear. Not that good. Those are the tiniest input caps I have ever seen! They are only 18mm diameter! No way they are 680uf. At least that is a decent actual 35 sized transformer. I can't remember the primary's part number, but it is in single forward rated at 600v, 10A continuous, 36A pulse (mode used here,) with a copper plate to help with heat. Fans are by Young Lin Tech, so not totally skimping here.
Chart shows no combined power, just the max for each rail. Hmm....
Hello, anybody home? And what the hell is that, is that supposed to be a bridge rectifier. I've only seen ones like these used in audio amps. No provision for heatsinking, and is rated at 4A, 600V. 480W is not near 585W, and this is rated at 75% efficiency.
Teapovision. All the secondaries consist of teapos, except for the small ones for the -12v and -5v, which are su'scon. Super group regulation. All three rails on one coil. Ugh.
Secondary heatsink components. One on the right is a 30A, 45V part on the 3.3v (rated at 36A). Middle is a 40A, 45V part for the 5v rail (rated at 36A). On the other side of that, not visible due to the transformer, is a lone 20A, 40V part for the 12v ("2" rails, even though all 12v come from same holes, with one at 19A, one at 20A, no combined rating).
