**One4yu2c** · July 31st, 2006

We've posted our examination of the Seasonic M12-500 power supply, their first venture into modular territory. As of this writing, HardwareLogic is the ONLY place you can read a review of this new series. Still reading? What are you waiting for!? Scoot on out of this thread and enjoy the exclusivity while it lasts!...

Come September, Seasonic will join the modular power supply world with their new M12 series, but can these units live up to the reputation of the highly popular S12 PSUs? Has the whole world gone mod? Don't wait to find out, HardwareLogic has the inside scoop and we'll tell you all about it!

Solid looking PSU, sadly Seasonic is not widely available in Canada. :(

Edit: Apparently available at Ingram. Never saw them :shock:

Do you buy online? I have no idea which ones are the go-to sites in Canada, but a quick search of some of the more popular names (or at least ones I have heard of) show Seasonic units in stock. These include NCIX, Bigfoot Computers, and Anitec.

No, I buy from hardware distributors such as Minimicro, Supercom, ASI, Mutualtech, PowerNode etc etc. It wouldn't be very cost effective to run a business buying from online sellers.

Just to update, I contacted Seasonic to see if they have a revised release date on the M12 series of if they're still shooting for September:

M12 will first available in Fry's and Newegg.com

We should be able to see M12 in both Fry's and Newegg.com within 1 week.

HAHAHA, I guess when they say "September", they push it 'till the very end!

Thanks for the update though! :thup:
