The Gigabyte UD1000GM has avoided what I consider to be a pitfall of power supply design by not including a separate hybrid functionality. Truth be told, it’s a feature I don’t actually like very much. I much prefer it, as Gigabyte has done here when a fan is simply configured to run optimally with the PSU cooling needs. If cooling is required, then the fan runs. If it’s not, then the fan doesn’t. Simple, right?…
With this in mind, therefore, through a clever utilisation of a set curve, it would appear that the Gigabyte UD1000GM typically runs the fan at a barely audible 500RPM which then cuts out completely when the PSU is below circa 20%-30% load (when cooling isn’t needed).
This is what I like to see, and for the Gigabyte UD1000GM, it does its job perfectly to provide a solid balance of cooling performance while also giving silent running when deemed appropriate.
