My experiences with the Rosewill RP550

[ryanmartini]

Well for the price, I had to try it.

First notice:

Excelent build quality.
Exterior is beautiful with the shiny finish.
Open vents, large cooling fan, overall, great cooling capability

Main reason I got it: 35A +12V rail.

Its currently pumping my venice at 2.5ghz, my 7800gt overclocked, hd, optical drives, etc...

The rail DOES NOT, I repeat DOES NOT move from 12.1. I ran prime for hours, and other various things, notta move at all.

If your tight on money, and need a good psu, this thing is a tank.


I fully recommend the psu to anyone who wants a great psu on the cheaper side.

did you measure that with a DMM (digital multimeter)?

Yeah, if you measured that with a good multimeter, that's pretty impressive performance. This may be a viable alternative to the Fortron AX500's and OCZ Powerstreams of the world.

anyone know what OEM makes this PSU?

ATNG Power. This is the same as the Coolmax 550w. AP-600F. Respectable, though I am not confident if it can come close to the actual amperage output ratings.
