The new Aerocool GT-700SG definitely has the looks, but does it have the appropriate performance to face the competition? Well, according to the results of all the tests I conducted, I can surely say that it does. Voltage regulation on all rails may not be super tight but is still within 3%, ripple suppression is great, and its efficiency is a little above Gold levels. Also, the output noise of the unit's fan is not so high, at least under normal operating conditions and low to middle loads. However, I would prefer the use of a double ball-bearing fan, although they tend to be a little noisier than sleeved/hysint bearing fans, but their lifetime is much longer. A higher-quality fan would be more appropriate given the price tag of the PSU. Speaking of price tags, the MSRP of this unit is surely on the high side, and it will have a really rough time if it lands on the US market with a price close to $160. Finally, its warranty period should ideally be five or more years since the GT-700SG plays ball in the high-end category where the competition offers units with a warranty of up to seven years.

To sum up, the GT-700SG is a great looking unit that performs well in all areas. It is surely not a record breaker, but it will meet the competition eye-to-eye, especially if Aerocool manages to provide the unit at a lower price to pick its price/performance ratio up, which would give it a great viability boost. The GT-700SG would actually gain a "recommended" award from me if it was more affordable.
