Cougar Power X 550W Non-Modular Power Supply Review
Ryan Martin / 11 years ago
Internally the unit is based off of a HEC/Compucase OEM design.
The cooling is provided by a 120mm DFS122512M Young Lin Tech fan that can do up to 2000RPM/77.7CFM/32.95 dBA.
The rear features the AC line filtering with a CM choke, two Y caps and an X cap.
The far right features a single bridge rectifier with a dedicated heatsink.
Each rail is rectified and filter by a variety of “Teapo” capacitors rated for up to 105 degrees. They are a cost effective compromise between Chinese and Japanese capacitors.
The single hold up capacitor is a Panasonic 400 V, 330 μF, 105°C capacitor and is the only Japanese capacitor inside the power supply.
