Soyo Raptor SY-PS400 Adjustable Switching Power Supply
Internals
No power supply review would be complete without taking a peek under the hood, so we busted out the screwdriver and voided the warranty! Actually, there was no sticker saying "Warranty Void if Opened" so I guess Soyo doesn't mind. But if there had been a sticker, our warranty would have been SO voided!       Anyways, looking inside we find that the power supply is extremely neat & tidy. The large heatsinks take up most of the inside, maximizing their surface area for more effective cooling. Even a short cable was zip-tied to reduce clutter inside the power supply, which in turn leads to better airflow and hopefully a cool and more stable power supply. So far this power supply looks to be of great quality, but we'll find out for sure in the Testing section.

on August 2, 2004 - 11:57 pm I have this power supply in my computer temporarily. Works great but a little loud for my tastes. The Voltage display is nice, and the bay doesn't really bother me since I have plenty of room for it right now. However, the computer I am using right now is just a temp while I work on my mod. Then I'm switching over to a 400W Zalman.
