    Antec Neo HE 500 PSU Review

    November 30, 2006 | Computer, Hardware | 1 Comment

    The Neo HE series of power supplies represents one of their top products with unprecedented efficiency in design and performance. The HE range are specially designed to reduce power consumption by up to 20% compared with traditional power supplies, saving users money and maybe even a few trees! All this while generating less heat and allowing cooling with a smaller, slower, quieter fan. Active PFC circuitry further reduces impact on the power infrastructure.

    Features
    It’s not flashy like some of the more exotic units on the market. It’s understated, mature, grownup if you like. What it lacks in bling, it covers in features and quality. The PSU is naturally SLI and Crossfire ready and it includes our favourite modular cable design – in english that means you can remove those extra cables you don’t need!

    Inside the box are the PSU, user manual, screws, AC power cable, and a package of modular cables. Except the 20/24 pin ATX connector and the +12V cable, which are hardwired into the PSU, all other cables are modular. The modular cable package includes:
    * Two 4 pin Molex power cables
    * One 3 to 4 pin adapter for floppy drives
    * Two PCI-Express connectors
    * Two SATA connectors

    The Neo HE 500 is painted in gray and the rear of the PSU houses the 80mm fan, the ATX On-Off switch and the AC Plug-in. The front of the PSU is very well ventilated with an open grill which allows for some great cooling. On the top of the grill are the five modular cable connectors. The unit measures 15cm(W) x 8.6cm(H) x 15cm(L) and fits well in almost all cases.
