The function of the power supply is converting the alternating current
provided by the power plant into direct current required by normal
computer system. The power consumption is unavoidable during the
transferring procedure and this result in unusable thermal loss, the
difference during the transfer can be named as efficiency.

Is your chassis still equipped with this old style exhaust fan mesh? How about replacing a better one to improve performance?
What is a single rail +12V power supply?
posted on Tue, 05/06/2008 - 06:04For power users and overclockers, multi +12V rails design from ATX 12V v2.0 is just not flexible enough to deliver the power they demand. Many multi +12V rails PSUs have maximum output limit of 20A for each rail. If the consumption of CPU is only 10A, then the remaining 8A of power cannot be used for other components such as hard drives, fans, graphics cards, and system lighting etc… This undesirable situation does not occur when using a single +12V rail power supply, where the power is shared with all components.
