Xigmatek Unveils the Vector Series Power Supplies

Cristian_25H · Jan 15, 2013, 10:34 AM

Norse mythology buff Xigmatek has today announced not one but three new lines of power supplies, the Vector S (80Plus Silver certified), Vector G (80Plus Gold) and Vector P (80Plus Platinum). Claimed to be 'optimized for low thermal signatures, ultra-low noise operation, and stable power delivery', these PSUs comply with the Intel ATX 12V 2.3 & SSI EPS 12V 2.92 standards, and feature a semi-modular design, high-grade Japanese capacitors, a 135 mm fan, a MTBF of 120,000 hours, active PFC (up to 0.99 PF rate), and multiple 12V rails (up to four on the Vector S units and on the 850 W Vector G model).

The Vector G PSUs come in 650 W, 750 W and 850 W flavors, the Vector P in 600 W and 700 W, while the Vector S line goes from 650 W, through 750 W and 850 W, up to 1050 W.

OCZ might get a little mad - theyve just starting a new SSD product line up aka 'Vector' series
