Default FSP FX700 FX-Epsilon Power Supply Review


FSP group first opened its doors in 1996. A decade later they have built themselves into one of the top 10 suppliers of power conversion products. Among their line of general PSUs and power adapters are PSUs specifically for home computers. Chances are, you have seen one of their units under another manufacturers name or under the name Sparkle. Today we have an FSP unit that actually says FSP on it; the 700 watt FX-Epsilon.

Nice review, I have an older 700w fsp epsilon in my build now... I wonder if they've fixed the problems they have with ripple in this new version (it does look a lot different from the epsilon I have), since that seems to be the biggest problem with fsp epsilon based power supplies in the past.

Thanks for writing this for us!

Thanks Jonny - and the rest of you.

We are making changes to how we do things - improvements really. They are slow and thus far small, but slow is better that fast, confusing, and wrong :)
