Introduction

I would like to thank MGE for supplying me with the unit for review.

MGE was founded in 1990 and the name stands for "Manufacturer of Great Electronics".

MGE Company is an innovator of high-quality computer accessories, power supplies, and cases for high-end PC systems. Combining unique styling and the latest advances in power supplies, thermal cooling technology and airflow, MGE’s products enable consumers to add performance and personality to their PC systems, contrary to the “plain-vanilla” look and feel of standard desktop accessories. The company targets the extreme gamer/modder niche as well as the “build your own” (BYO) mainstream market of PC enthusiasts. Built on a legacy of 10 years of expertise in the electronics and computer industry, MGE products incorporate stylish designs, advanced functionality and, most importantly, reliability.

The PSU

The design of the MGE XG Vortec is quite unique. It is made from anodized aluminum which has ripples for better heat dissipation. Another unique feature are the two windows on the sides which allow you to take an inside look of your PSU. When running, the PSU is lighted up blue and the light is shining out of these windows.


On the backside of the PSU you have an illuminated power switch. A small red switch to select between 110V and 220V input voltage and a shiny rotary knob to select the speed at which the PSU fan is running.


MGE has sleeved all cables in a nice blue which matches the PSU's color.
