A-Data XPG PYLON XPG PYLON 650

cheeky newbie

ADATA XPG Pylon 650 is one of the first pen attempts by the Taiwanese company, traditionally famous for RAM and SSD, in the power supply market. The ready-made “bronze” CWT platform was taken as a basis with support for both 110 and 220 volt power networks. This makes the PSU suitable for worldwide use.

Country life

A wide range of input voltage is also relevant in our country, because at times the voltage can sag from the standard 220 right up to 170, especially in rural areas. More simple PSUs, designed only for 200 – 240 V, in such a situation are turned off in an emergency. Whereas ADATA XPG Pylon 650, and others like it, continue to function normally.

Japanese motifs

The Japanese high temperature Nippon Chemi-Con at 105°C is used as the main holding capacitor. And the additional filtering conders are already Taiwanese. The twelve-centimeter fan is made by Hong Hua based on a hydrodynamic bearing, which is many times more reliable than a conventional sliding one. The slots in the ventilation grille are made in an unusual shape of triangles.

power reserve

The ADATA XPG Pylon 650 cables are flat and long: for example, the processor cable is 65 cm to the first 4+4-pin connector, plus another 15 cm to the second one. On a 12-volt line, the power supply unit produces a current of 54 amperes, which equals 648 watts. Another 110 watts is supplied through the +3.3 lines. and +5 V. That is, the total output power is greater than the claimed one, with a margin for future PC upgrades.
