Seasonic X-560

Seasonic X-560 560W

Greetings once again, good readers, and welcome to yet another adventure on the Sea of Sonic. Today I'm looking at yet another product in the 80 Plus Gold certified X series in the 560 watt model. As it so happens, this is the lowest powered model in the line that has a fan... the two smaller siblings of this unit, the 460W and 400W, are both fanless. As is customary here at this website, we'll get things started off by looking at some pictures of the box. Thrill as the box pictures fill your screen. Revel in the majesty of the cardboard as it tells us all about the unit inside. Gaze in awe at the splendor of the certification logos on the side, which proclaim the vast array of agencies that have said, "Yes! Yes! This power supply has passed our testing procedures!" Ok, I'll stop now. And now we come to the marketing hype. Let me just type this up for you here. This is all pretty similar to the box of the 400W fanless model I looked at, but there are some differences. Yep, we're looking at the 560W model today. The box is happy to remind us of this. Once again, the marketing is repeated here in multiple languages. Xhosa is conspicuously absent, as is High Elven and Imadeitupish. Opening up the box, we find a well packed array of stuff.
