News EVGA releases yet another power supply.........the 'GA' series (Updated with new "GT" series)

[LukeSavenije]

also, since Jonnyguru has since come out with the result, as speculated it's a HEC TPK, but by the looks of it a downgraded one

EVGA Gt units

How are these and who is the OEM? https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=220-GT-0650-Y1

Damn EVGA is cheaping out for real. Disappointing.

an upgraded TPK would've been more fun, but EVGA in general has lately been... underwhelming

it's sad they just couldn't have said this directly, would've saved us time in researching it

now only one mystery to go... what is B5 exactly?

 

[DrMrLordX]

Someone will have to buy a unit and do a review + teardown. Since EVGA isn't exactly shipping review samples.

Hmm. PSU prices are insane right now, which is probably why nobody's lined up to do it. A 650W gold unit for ~$150? Holy crap.

and yeah, EVGA not sending out reviewers samples to anyone (I've once asked for one as well and got declined) by the looks of it, so that sucks

The G5 650W model specifically costs around $148 though. For whatever bizarre reason. I guess I could sell off my spare 1300W G2 unit just to get the G5 so someone could tear it down and review it.

no need, G5 is well reviewed

and... underwhelming

 

[DrMrLordX]

Oh sorry I was looking at the G5, not the B5. The B5 is . . . $140 for a 650W unit. Ugh!
