crmaris · Sep 9, 2011

Be Quiet, as the name implies, specializes in the construction of silent PC components like CPU coolers, fans and power supplies. In this review we will test the Pure Power CM L8 730W, a modular PSU that targets the tight budget users since it features an affordable price, it is 80 PLUS Bronze certified and is equipped with four PCIe connectors. On top of that it promises quiet operation even at full load thanks to the SilentWings fan technology.

Wow, this guy spit out reviews faster than I can read them. Nicely done.

The cheapest one I can find in Sweden is about €110 though. :/
