Aerocool Strike-X PSU User Thread

  @jim3:
  
  Tama ka naman chief. Pero kung sa akin, hindi lang yung tagal ng buhay ng PSU ang inaalala ko.
  Any PSU kung masira after 3-4 years OK na yun for my.
  Ang isa sa main concern ko eh gaano ba kalinis ang power na natatanggap ng mga piyesa ng PC ko?
  Yan ang isa sa major issue for me pag-dating sa PSU.
  So far kasi Aerocool PSUs are yet to improve themselves pag-dating sa bagay na ito.

  @mig
  
  lahat naman tayo concern sa pc natin lalo na sa piyesa ng pc...
  lalo din ako concern din sa ibabato at ilalabas ng isang supply papasok
  sa mga pc part natin.. nai-aply ko din yung 5taon binuno kong pagaaral tungkol sa mga electronic
  component.. hehe ..OT na.. sa akin lang tinaray ko sya kahit alam ko my chansa na
  sirain ng PSU ko yung piyesa ng pc ko. buti na lang ok pa at sana sa iilan taon pang magamit
  namin..
  
  yap wala pa nga masyado napatunayan ang aerocool psu\'s nila.. lalo na nagawa sya
  ni andyson kung hindi ako nagkakamali.. sakin lang wag sobrang mabusuhin ang isang
  bagay kung ayaw mo agad etong mawala o masira...

  question po, kakabili ko lang ng strike-x 500w bronze, normal po bang di gumagana ung fan pagka-on nya? tsaka kahit sobrang init na ng psu di parin gumagana ung fan.
  
  thanks

• jim3 on 29 Jan 14 @ 08:47 AM #

  ^ hindi naman ako expert sa mga pc part pero tingin ko defect ang naibigay
  sayo kasi ako 8 -10hrs gaming at browsing movie hindi sya msyadong mainit..
  at umiikot na ang fan pagka-on mo pa lang.. at hanggang maaga ibalik mo sya..

  Tama sang-ayon ako dito 1001%. Pero ang sa akin, \"Huwag aabusuhin,\" period. Kasi meron pang salitang \'sobra\' eh. As far as my systems are concerned, never ako nag-OC. Neither do I push my components to work beyond its operating parameters. Yung MaQboard rig ko w/c I use for everyday computing, has an FSP Aurum 600W psu, pero in reality ang power consumption nito would only be roughly 342W~392W. So around 50%~60% lang ang loading ng PSU ko. Optimal conditions nga kung tutuusin.
  
  Ito pala yung specs: MaQboard MQ-323
  -Intel Xeon 3.4GHz Single Core
  -Intel G41 & ICH7 chipsets
  G.Skill RipjawsX 4GB DDR3 1600MHz
  HIS HD7750 IceQ
  Seagate 1TB, 500GB SATA + Seagate 40GB & IBM 40GB (2.5\") IDE
  
  Yung gaming rig ko naman is equipped with a Coolermaster Silent Pro Hybrid 1300W.
  Pero based sa research ko eh around 500+W lang ang magiging consumption nito upon running. Di ko pa binubuo eh.
  Specs:
  CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 960T 3.0GHz Black Edition
  M/B: MSI 870A Fuzion
  RAM: Kingston HyperX Lovo 8GB DDR3 1866MHz
  GPU1: Powercolor HD6870 x2
  GPU2: MSI HD7770 Power Edition OC
  HDD: WD Green 1.5TB, WD Red 2TB, Hitachi 500GB, WD Caviar 250GB, Seagate 80GB (all SATA)
  CPU cooler: Antec Kuhler 620
  
  It will have a minimum of 18 case fans; 6 of those high speed Delta fans; pwera pa yung cold cathodes. Pero I opted to connect these to the secondary PSU which is independently connected to the mains. Generic PSU lang ito pero it does not really matter since hindi naman sensitive yung mga ikakabit kong parts (fans & lights). So kung ma-imagine mo, the fans can remain turned on kahit off na yung mismong PC.
  
  

  sa akin lang tinaray ko sya kahit alam ko my chansa na
  sirain ng PSU ko yung piyesa ng pc ko. buti na lang ok pa at sana sa iilan taon pang magamit
  namin..

  
  
  Good for you sir. Pero sa akin, hindi ko ma-afford ang ganyang risk since kung ma-imagine ninyo ang amount na ginastos ko I think hindi ako pwedeng sumugal. That is aside from the fact na yung ibang parts ko are very hard to find dito sa Pilipinas. Swerte kayo sir kasi nabuno na ninyo ang 5yrs studying electronics. Eh ako pinaghahandaan ko pa yung additional 5~7yrs ko sa post bacalaureate degree ko. Kaya as you can see di ko kayang at di din ako willing isugal ang gamit ko sa \'sub-standard\' na PSU.
  
  @nonsense91:
  Gunggong yung sales guy ng pinagbilhan mo. Makabenta lang eh noh... Saan yan?

  @nonsense91:
  Seriously, if you can manage to have that PSU replaced with a different brand, do it.
  Kung ako tatanungin there are better brands out there. Pero personal choices ko would be:
  
  FSP
  Seasonic
  Silverstone

• nonsense91 on 29 Jan 14 @ 10:50 PM #

  napapalitan ko na po, di ko na lang po babanggitin store, hehehe, salamat sa mga feedbacks,

• manalorgc on 10 Mar 15 @ 01:11 AM #

• HyoiGattai on 21 Mar 15 @ 12:33 AM #

  Wala ako alam na mabibilan ng cables pero baka may makagawa ng DIY cables, ask the Modders thread

• license on 28 May 15 @ 07:53 AM #

  open neo po yung BIOS then go to power management (depending on your BIOS version) may voltage part dun, pnapakita ung mga voltage status, mag red xa kung under or over

  Ung Aerocool strike X ko bumigay na hahaha Thermaltake 700w RGB na gamit ko ngaun :)

• bloode_13 on 01 Nov 18 @ 08:34 PM #

  Joining this thread as an Aerocool Strike X 500W user since I bought this PSU way back 2011 and it's still running excellent. This was a few months before the have released the modular version to which I almost had replaced it with but decided not to. I just had to open the PSU cover atleast once a year for cleaning.
  
  From my first Athlon x2's to the Phenom II x4 555 currently overclocked. It used to power my GTX 460, then up to the 560 Ti to the current 760, which is IMO the ceiling of what the processor can handle. I also use the system as an occassional torrent rig and overnight upstream transfers.
  
  I just did an ampere reading an hour ago and got a continuous 460W AC from the wall under heavy system burn-in (should be around 370W DC), got around 11.5V and 3.2V drop but stil within the 5% tolerance level, and surprisingly, the system is stable even with an overclocked CPU.
