EXTERNAL TOUR

A metallic dark gray finish is what we see on the outside of the X-Pro. It looks serious and businesslike.


Note vents on the side.

A single 120mm fan draws air into the power supply from below, blows it across the heatsinks, then out the hex-stamped back grill. A simple wire grill protects the fan while providing low resistance to the airflow.

As you can see in the photos above and below, there are two sets of slot vents that allow air exhaust other than out the back. Such vents are usually to improve airflow for hot components positioned near a closed enclosure wall. This means that some of the hot air from the PSU will be expelled into the computer case. The heat spillover may require some additional airflow for other components.


The vents on the back will also let heat escape into the case.


The label for the X-Pro.

Checking the UL file number on the label at the UL Online Certifications Directory tells us that the power supply is built by Andyson International, an electronics manufacturer based in Taiwan. We have no previous experience with Andyson products; the previous X-infinity was made by another company, Wintech Electronics.

OUTPUT CABLES


The main output cables are sleeved; the rest are black plastic insulated. No color coding here.

Nine cable sets come attached to the X-Pro with plenty of connectors for most systems. The absence of color-coded wires seems odd but should not present most any problem.

  • 18" cable for main 24-pin ATX connector
  • 18" cable for 2x12V AUX12V
  • 2 x 18 " cable for 6-pin PCIe connector
  • 30" cable with three 4-pin IDE drive connectors
  • 30" cable with two 4-pin IDE drive connectors and 1 floppy drive connector
  • 36" cable with three 4-pin IDE drive connectors and 1 floppy drive connector
  • 2 x 25" cable with two SATA power connector
