Power Supply FSP Dagger 600W - A Stab in the Dark?

[confusis]

It's about time I took a crack at a power supply review, since James has covered this market segment up to this point. FSP has been a manufacturer of SFX power supplies for some time now, with most of their units being supplied in OEM form to case manufacturers such as In-Win and the like. It is in this form that I first tested a FSP power supply, namely a 300W SFX unit that was bundled with an In-Win BK-series chassis. My experiences with this unit was (and continues to be) good, with reliable and quiet operation appearing to be a FSP hallmark across this and the other SFX, ATX, and TFX power supplies from them I have used in the past few years. Will the FSP Dagger 600W hold true to this reputation?

How flexible where the cables?

 

[confusis]

Moderately. They do put up some resistance, but on the positive side, this means they hold their shape when formed.

I hope SFX PSUs transfer to 92mm or ideally 100mm fans soon, I get a strange sensation when I see a wee 80mm fan inside an SFX PSU.

Horrible pun, @confusis...

Is the depth really 110m or a typo? Shouldn't it be categorized as SFX-L instead?

 

[confusis]

I'll check into that when i get home on Sunday - i must have typo'd that!

 

[NFSxperts]

On FSP's site, it says 110mm as well so not your fault.

Measuring the pictures it does look like it's actually 110mm deep.

I'd still classify it as SFX though since it's closer to that than SFX-L which is 130mm.

 

[confusis]

The calipers say - 110mm.

 

[jeshikat]

I guess that's how they got the connectors flush, they just made the housing bigger.

There are many ways to skin a cat, as they say.
