Once again we will be looking at a power supply, this time the Chill Innovation CP-520A4 ATX 2.2.
The danish company Chill Innovation A/S, founded in 1996, is a company that specialises in low-noise power supplies at a price for the average user.
The CP-350A was launched in 2002 with the goal of being the most silent power supply in the world. But lately we have had to realize that the requirements power supplies have to live up to has gone up.
With the launch of SLI and CrossFire Multi-GPU solutions it has become harder to produce low-noise power supplies. What made a powerful power supply 5 years ago, will now hardly make a budget system fly.
With the CP-520A4 ATX 2.2 Chill Innovation has attempted to rise with the challenge and deliver a power supply that is both silent and capable of delivering the juice needed to run all but the most power hungry systems out today.
We will be challenging the power supply with a water cooled setup consisting of a Nvidia GeForce 8800GTX, 2GB memory, A core 2 processor at 3.6GHz and 2 SATA disk running RAID 0. This is a powerful system that we believe will push the power supply to its limits.
