Tacens Supero Power Supply Users Thread

  • Need help fellow TPC\'ers. I\'m planning on buying a new PSU for I\'ve been long using my generic PSU. I was just wondering if Tacens Supero 500W Power Supply is a good buy. Does anyone here tried this? I really need some feedbacks. TIA
  • up

  • mukhang bang for the buck psu to ah. haba ng warranty, modular at mura pa. magkakatalo na lang sa actual performance...
  • as of now masasabi ko maganda talaga performance...kasi medyo marami na rin load ko pero cool pa rin temp nya...nagtry na ako ng 4gig na oc sa e5200 ko kayang kaya...
    tatadtarin ko pa ng fans na may led,saka lagyan ko pa ng 1 pang cdrom at hdd...tignan ko kung kaya pa rin nya...i\'ll post an update as soon as possible...

  • @pc reform

    ill post up after ko makabili ng bagong cam...and pagkatapos ko na rin magupgrade ng vidcard...
  • ssshhh.....wag masyadong i build-up, baka tumaas ang presyo....=)

    hindi naman siguro tataas since pantapat yan sa HEC PSU prices.

    i still want to see the efficiency and noise/ripple values.
  • magkano ba to? meron bang mga 850w?

    looks nice, but they could\'ve sleeved the entire cable para malinis, and wala bang shot ng internals dyan? para makita na din quality. or better yet a review para kasama ripples and such.

    pero ok yan kung ok ang build, para dami choices

  • eto po yung 600w internal




    the internals doesn\'t look super awesome like Gigabyte Odin. but look at corsair, napaka ordinary yung loob but hanep pala. I hope ganito din yung Tacens. hehe...

    use google translation tool nalang.
  • Rated power: 700W @ 25ºC | Max power: 650W @ 50ºC


    hmn, so ano ang continous power nito? sensya na nalilito ako hahaha. pero usually kasi at 50degrees to, kasi iinit naman talaga yan diba po? correct me if im wrong na lang.

    so ung 700w is 650w talaga? minus 50w ang true rating?

    sana magka review para makita kung clean ang signal. but looks good so far imo
  • looks very similar to this one, i think they are the same psu with a different name: <click here for link> and this one: <click here for link>
  • baka iisa lang ung gumawa, may mga nakita na kong ganun, ok satin basta ok ang quality :)
  • @Cons29:

    Tacens Supero is made by FSP Group. see the OEM models in my post.

    @tony:

    according to pc_reform, Tacens Supero 700 = FSP680-80GCM (OEM).

    checking the 80PLUS test reports, it seems FSP680-80GCM (OEM) is indeed FSP Everest 80PLUS 700W (Retail)..

    FSP680-80GDM (OEM) <click here for link>
    FSP Everest 80PLUS 700W (Retail) <click here for link>
  • similarly..

    Tacens Supero 500 = FSP520-80GCM (OEM) = FSP Everest 80PLUS 500W (Retail)

    FSP520-80GCM (OEM) <click here for link>
    FSP Everest 80PLUS 500W (Retail) <click here for link>

    Tacens Supero 600 = FSP620-80GCM (OEM) = FSP Everest 80PLUS 600W (Retail)

    FSP620-80GCM (OEM) <click here for link>
    FSP Everest 80PLUS 600W (Retail) <click here for link>

    note: this would all be correct as long as OEM models given by pc_reform is accurate.
  • side by side:

    Tacens:




    FSP:

  • just as i suspected all along, and the Everest sells for more.....me iba pang kapatid na psu yan....=)

    it is easy to appreciate why this is so.....the tooling for making the casings, the boards fabrication, economy of scale...it is dirt cheap to make psu\'s if you are making them by the thousands, this is economy of scale.....

    notice that even the packaging are identical except for the printing.....

    a case of the TASK and ENERMAX psu\'s repeated....

    frankly, i have seen a lot of dead hec\'s and enermax\'s that i am willing to try something new......
  • @tony: both Tacens 500 and Epsilon 500 are available from pc_reform. but notice the price difference.
