The
Insides of the PSU:
DO
NOT DO THIS AT HOME! Removing the case cover will
definitely void any warranty AND it’s also
potentially quite dangerous. The PSU
can hold a potentially fatal electric charge for
long periods of time even after not being plugged
into a power source. If, for any reason you do
decide to check out the innards, be sure to discharge
the unit prior to removing the cover. To do so,
while it’s still in the computer and everything’s
connected, simply pull out the main power plug
and then press the ON switch for the computer.
There should follow a very brief indication of
fans spinning. This small detail will help you
realize that the PSU has been discharged properly.
Let’s
now look at the interior of this PSU:
Notice
first of all that there are two large heatsinks
running nearly the full length of the unit and
located so that they receive the full benefit
airflow created by the two fans.
In
this image I want you to see how compactly the
wiring is done. It’s also mostly located
to one side of the unit’s interior.
And,
finally, the opposite side showing just how compacted
the unit is put together. It’s no wonder
that ULTRA has placed two fans on the unit to
aid with sufficient cooling.
