Hi-Tech Reviews: S12-430
What's not to like about the Seasonic S12 - 430 power supply, it's efficient, has excellent voltage on all rails, is extremely quiet and has a 3-year warranty. I have so much faith in Seasonic power supplies that I make no bones about it when I say that of the 7 computers I have and use, five of them have Seasonic power supplies in them.

System Cooling: Power Angel
The Seasonic PowerAngel works exactly as advertised. It's almost ridiculously easy to use, gives the user a ton of great information that can be helpful not only to the computer enthusiast, but anyone interested in learning more about the power consumption of their household appliances, and does all this for a suggested price of only $37.99. In just a very short period of time, it's become an indispensable part of my test arsenal, particularly where power supplies are concerned, and you can bet you'll be seeing a lot more of our PowerAngel in many review to come. |

PimpRig: Power Angel
It's certainly not for everyone, but if you're an IT manager that has to buy a UPS for your server....[just] plug in the Power Angel the wall and know exactly what you need. I could think of a dozen other instances where a cheap, accurate monitor such as this would be very useful. |

Big Bruin: Power Angel
... strikes me as an item I am going to be glad to have for years to come. It can be an invaluable tool for anyone interested in determining operating costs, as it takes all of the guess work out. It has already proved quite informative in analyzing my computer and home appliance energy consumption, and I foresee continued use along these lines... as well as finding a role in future reviews. |

XYZ Computing: Power Angel
It is designed and marketed to measure eight functions about an electronic device. Whether it is your computer, monitor, or a blender the Power Angel is able to operate in an extremely basic manner and tell you what you want to know. It even does so within 1-2% accuracy. This gives you the ability to really fine-tune your home's electronic equipment for optimum efficiency. |

PC Perspective: Power Angel
I compared the AC line voltage as measured by the PowerAngel with my FLUKE 87 III True RMS digital multimeter. They agreed within 0.5 VAC (~0.4%). Very good!... I can highly recommend the PowerAngel to anyone who is curious about the electrical parameters and/or power consumption of their PC equipment and other household appliances. |

A True Review: Power Angel
An interesting device. If you are in need of a cheap power tester or want to test your wall outlets, it is perfect. If you are looking to calculate some ways to save money around the house, it is also worth thinking about. |

Silent PC Review: Super Tornado 300 and Super Silencer 400 Revisited
The Rev. A3 versions of the Seasonic Super series PSUs are serious improvements on products that... were already excellent... big gains in efficiency apparently achieved by fine tuning of the existing circuit design... probably the quietest of all the PSUs tested thus far... The ATX12V v2.0 / EPS12V compliance of the 400W and 460W models will certainly be welcome... Rev. A3 has brought the Seasonic Super series back to the top of SPCR's Recommended PSUs |

Overclockers: Super Tornado 400
Seasonic's Super Tornado power supplies have proven themselves to be very stable at both overclocked and stock speeds under a variety of conditions. For the overclocker looking for a silent power supply, the Super Tornado is a very good choice... at around $100 US, you get what you pay for with this awesome power supply. |

Metku Mods: Super Tornado 350
Expectations about Seasonic Super Tornado 350W were really high and during the tests it proved itself worth it. It is a reliable partner for everyone who respects stability, silence and raw power. And when it comes to its bundle, there's not even a single bad word to say. |

Dev Hardware: Super Tornado 400
Not only are the voltages more stable than the previous power supply that I had, but now this computer nearly silent... This system runs continually, and one of the biggest differences is that now [ with Super Tornado ], the in-case temperature has dropped about 2 degrees. Would I recommend this power supply to a close friend? Yes. Would I ever use a Seasonic power supply in the future? Yes. |

PC Perspective: Super Silencer 350 & 460 , Super Tornado 400
All three units exhibited good voltage regulation with excellent stability and very low AC ripple. Each of the power supplies tested include active power factor correction and produced some of the highest efficiencies I have measured to date. Seasonic backs each unit with a 3-year warranty, one of the best in the industry. Overall, three excellent power supplies! |

OCIA: Super Silencer 460
This PSU is a stable one. It didn't show any signs of fatigue after running the system at load... when I think about the quality of the SS, I tend to forget about the aesthetic appeal. If you're in the market for a new PSU like I was, this could be the one you're looking for if you want reliable power from Seasonic. |

Dan's Data: Super Tornado 400
This is a PSU that, as far as I can see, is all about strategy two: You can make a solid, genuine product that actually does the job well, and should continue to do so for many years... I haven't tested this PSU for long enough to make any rock solid comments about its quality or reliability, but all the signs are right. As is the price, and the build quality, as far as I can see. I'd be happy to use an SS-400FB in my own PC. Recommended. |

3D Velocity: Super Tornado 350
A near faultless execution combined with extremely low operational noise makes the Super Tornado a superb choice for the regular user. Without going overboard it offers all the power that the vast majority of us will ever need and pumps it out cleanly and constantly. At 80% efficiency it could even pay for itself! The price is perhaps a touch high compared to some units available but without a doubt you should be prepared to pay what ever it takes to equip yourself with the very best available, and the Super Tornado fits into that category and possible even tops it. |
