Scythe Announces Kamariki 4 Series Power Supplies
written by Snoops - June 22, 2009 10:30
Scythe Europe announced the Kamariki 4 Power Supply series. Early stage production samples were displayed at CeBit in Hannover, Germany. The Kamariki series is entering the next level as the 4th version and is now available for the worldwide market. In Japan, Scythe is one of the market-leading brands for High-End Power Supplies and Cooling Components for many years where the essential experience and know-how is coming in which were gathered successfully over these years. Kamariki 4 PSU is available in a Plug-in (modular) version with detachable power cables for more convenience and also available in a standard version with non-detachable power cables. For better usability, 45 to 55 cm long cables are wrapped by robust and flexible mesh. Each version is available in 450, 550, and 650W models. In order to comply with market demands and the GreenIT movement, Scythe Kamariki 4 PSU Series are fully conform to 80Plus Standards (20/50/100% system load).



Original Scythe Kaze Jyu 100 mm fan is used to assure efficient cooling which was already implemented in successful CPU Cooler, such as Kama Cross, Mine and Katana 2. In order to achieve the silent operation of the Kamariki 4 PSU, the fan speed was optimized and adjusted to perfection. Even under conditions of full load, the Power Supply keeps a low noise level of 20,7 dBA (450 W), 23 dBA (450 W) 25,6 dBA (650 W). Furthermore it is possible to connect up to 3 case fans to the integrated Intelligent Fan Cable Connecter which will then adjust the fan speed according to the load of the Power Supply, and therefore improve the airflow inside PC Case when it is required.
