FSP Group, the leading manufacturer of high-performance power supplies today, announces the brand new HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies. Small, powerful, and stylish, FSP's new HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies bring unparalleled versatility with an all-new, revolutionary design built into a robust 130 mm chassis. Highly compatible with any mid-tower PC case, the unique short footprint of the new HYDRO PTM X PRO power supplies far exceeds the performance of a regular power supply with a superior power density in comparison to a regular 190 mm PSU. Furthermore, they come painted with an industrial-grade conformal coating that protects the power supply in harsh conditions, such as dust, stain, and humid work environments.

80 Plus Platinum-certified, the latest HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies are fully modular, delivering up to 1000 W with low noise and high-efficiency power across all connected components. Carrying FSP's game-changing Eco semi-fanless fan control switch, these new power supply units are the best choice for users looking for a noise-free system unit.



Available for users in 850 W, and 1000 W units, the HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies are highly suitable for gamers and content creators who request superior performance and outstanding durability.

Built to perform exceptionally well under high-demand workloads the HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies utilize superior Japanese capacitors including bulk capacitors designed to withstand up to 450 V, 105°C and avoid the infamous capacitor leakage problem. Additionally, 3.3 V & 5 V DC-DC module design improves the reliability and enables high component compatibility with low ripple noise that effectively reduces interference of system components, prolonging hardware lifespan.

Showcasing FSP's superior engineering capability, these new power supplies carry cutting-edge technologies like the LLC half-bridge topology that allows zero voltage switching of the main switches, lowering switching losses and boosting system efficiency drastically.

Furthermore, a single +12V rail power output design enables efficient power delivery to modern graphic cards ensuring outstanding performance and stability.

To conclude, FSP's new HYDRO PTM X PRO series power supplies are the best choice for gamers and content creators who look to build high-performance systems in a compact mid tower case. They deliver outstanding performance, unrivaled stability, and lifelong durability.

They had Hydro series for years, one of them was literally liquid-cooled:
 
Hmmm....
Can't find the warranty period of these PSU's, they don't even mention it on their own site.
 
What's the point of complaining about product name either tbh?

Complain about performance or price if it will be proven to be inadequate.
 
My screen name clearly is not misleading here indeed :roll:
You literally have pictures of that one being air cooled, if you buy product on its name alone and don't bother with ANY further research whatsoever, it's kind of on you.

If it is obviously air cooled, calling it hydro is pretty stupid, you will relate to that though eh.
 
I had a noiseless FSP PSU in my Acer desktop in the past.

Maybe a TPU review coming of these new hydro FSP PSU's?

I'm not complaining about anything, I was just wondering, sure there are more important things to look at
 
Ok, but why call it hydro.

I've always wondered that too

Nobody is complaining, they, and I, are just wondering the reasoning behind the choice

The other dude marked as supporter was though. Was talking about him.
Regardless, you're best off inquiring to FSP directly about their reasoning for this:

My first comment was "Ok, but why call it hydro" how is that complaining? Neither is "Because the product name could be misleading" complaining.
 
*sigh*
Yes, it definitely is petty complaint to call product NAME misleading as if it was all that should determine purchasing decision, just because you had your own reasoning about what that name implies about the product. That's my opinion and of course you don't have to agree with it, that's fine.
By that logic you could find a way for every single product on the market to be misleading one way or another, since certain information you could arbitrarily deem relevant was not included in it, or you find some reasoning how it suggests something incorrect about the product.
Regardless you have the link for further inquiry to resolve your dilemma. I suggest you take it there, if you want it to be your hill to die on. I do not, so I'm done here.

Because at least three thought ooh nice quiet watercooled PSU from the name and were interested.

Now not soooo bye.

You answered the same question I had from just stumbling onto this article. I vaguely remembered a water-cooled FSP power supply in the past and seeing the title of this product. I assumed they brought back that concept until I saw the pictures in this article. Oh well. Thanks for confirming I was not going crazy ;)
 
Ok, but why call it hydro.

because water and electricity were born to be together
