Evaluation & Performance Continued...

The next step is to have a look at the performance analysis of the RockeTeer 600W and to make some sort of comparison I have taken the Hiper Type-R 580W power supply to be put next to it. Both PSU's ran during 2 hour in idle configuration, meaning just power up and doing nothing and in full load operation. During full load we used several applications to get the CPU, GPU and hard drivers running at full speed.

So how was this accomplished? Well we used a program that would stress the CPU, namely RC5-72/OGRp2 Distributed Client. This program will use all available CPU processing time to crack a 72-bit secret encryption key. Furthermore we ran Futuremark 3DMark06 in loop mode to let our EVGA e-GeForce 7800 GS run at full occupation to make sure also the GPU is balancing out the power usage drawn from the PSU.

Hiper Type-R 580W - Summary Table

	Minimum		Maximum		Average
Voltages	Idle	Load	Idle	Load	Idle	Load
CPU Core	1.30V	1.28V	1.38V	1.32V	1.37V	1.30V
+3.3V	3.38V	3.31V	3.42V	3.46V	3.41V	3.39V
+5V	5.08V	5.03V	5.13V	5.16V	5.10V	5.10V
+12V	12.10V	12.04V	12.28V	12.28V	12.19V	12.14V

The Type-R 580W from Hiper puts down some excellent results. By just checking over the summary table we can't spot any dip on the voltages. That alone says already enough, the voltage levels are kept and remain above there nominal values. When looking at the average results we are quite impressed. Almost all voltage levels remain quite stable between idle and full load state.

	Minimum		Maximum		Average
Voltages	Idle	Load	Idle	Load	Idle	Load
CPU Core	1.30V	1.28V	1.38V	1.32V	1.36V	1.29V
+3.3V	3.38V	3.31V	3.41V	3.42V	3.39V	3.38V
+5V	5.03V	5.03V	5.11V	5.11V	5.06V	5.06V
+12V	11.90V	11.87V	11.99V	11.94V	11.95V	11.91V

After having put the Speeze RockeTeer 600W power supply to the same extensive benchmarks, I have to remark that the results are less stable then with the Hiper Type-R 580W PSU. Although that doesn't mean that this PSU doesn't deliver what is specified for. The Speeze delivers very decent results and does that in a silent manner. And also at full load the noiseless levels are remaining almost silent

What also is remarkable for the Speeze PSU, is that at 600W it delivers a stable operation wattage at idle or at full load. The EVGA e-GeForce 7800 GS AGP graphics card draws a lot of amps, but that doesn't cause any problems whatsoever. The Speeze PSU does what it is made for, delivering stable current on the different power rails and that at almost silent operation.
