Corsair are using a 120MM Yate Loon fan, model number D12SH-12. This is a sleeve bearing 2,200 rpm fan, which can produce 88 cfm airflow at 40 dBa.
The Corsair CX430 V2 is a CWT design, a dead giveaway when we see the green transformers. Corsair have upgraded the +12V rectifiers and the PFC transistors.
The power supply has two Y capacitors and a single X capacitor.
The supply contains several rows of heatsinks which are positioned to help maintain good temperatures throughout the width. The supply contains a Samxon APFC capacitor which is rated at 85c, 400V and 180uf. Two AOT10N60 mofsets are used as primary switches. Filtering capacitors in the secondary side are a mixture of Samxon and Teapo and are rated to 105c. We noted a protection IC, the ST9S429.
The cable is fully sleeved inside the chassis, protected against long term fraying.
There is a bloke on ebay selling these for £29.99! just ordered one as a backup. what a bargain
is is hard to argue with a gold award for this. wish they made one with the same internal structure for £10 more, which was modular………. especially for a media center
Wow im quite surprised how good this is. I read the first review on johnnyguru before and it seemed quite good even then, this one is even better
Excellent. those are impressive figures, for a 40 quid psu. ordering one on OCUK, dont trust ebay
