Power Up
The MWE White offers a simple, reliable way to power your system safely and
efficiently at a low cost. The 80 PLUS White efficiency rating, DC-to-DC + LLC
circuit design, single +12V rail, active PFC, and temperature sensitive HDB fan
offer a power supply unit that stays true to its original purpose. This PSU will
handle all your core computing needs with none of the hassles or challenges of
additional specialty features, software synchronization, or other bells and
whistles. Just plug it into your system and get to work. For a great core
computing experience, you cant go wrong with the MWE White.
80 PLUS STANDARD 230V EU CERTIFIED
Its important to understand what efficiency is and what the ratings actually
mean. The efficiency rating indicates how much power is retained and/or lost
when transferring it from the wall to your components. It does not indicate the
overall quality of the PSU. A PSU doesnt need an 80 PLUS Gold rating to be safe
and reliable. And a PSU with an 80 PLUS Gold rating isnt necessarily either of
those things. The MWE White guarantees a typical efficiency of 85% while being
both safe and reliable.
120MM HDB FAN
The constant struggle between cooling and noise is as old as the consumer PC
industry itself. Keeping your components cool without having to hear about it
while you work is still one of the greatest challenges for all fan based cooling
technologies. The MWE Whites solution to this problem is a thermally sensitive
120mm HDB fan. It spins based on the systems temperature, constantly adjusting
to keep your PSU running smoothly and safely with the minimum amount of noise
required.
SINGLE +12V RAIL
Getting power from the wall to the PSU and then to your components is a
tricky situation. The power comes in one voltage level, but your components need
a different one. That power has to first be transferred to/through a converter
in order to make it safe for your parts to use without overloading. The
lines/rails used to initially move power from the wall to the converter need to
be reliable and consistent to ensure your systems overall performance. Thats why
the MWE White only uses one +12V rail for this process. This way all the
components in your system are constantly fed the same power from the same source
in order to guarantee consistency between all connections.
DC-TO-DC CIRCUIT DESIGN
Power comes in multiple voltage levels. The wall delivers power in one
voltage level but your components each need a specific voltage to operate
properly. The process of converting raw power from the wall to the multiple
voltage levels your components need requires special components to complete this
process quickly, efficiently, and safely. The MWE Whites DC-to-DC + LLC
technology was painstakingly crafted to accomplish this goal. The Dual Forward
circuit layout has been designed to convert 12V power to 3V and 5V levels with
minimal ripple noise, 80 PLUS efficiency, and reduced risk to your connected
components.
SILENT MODE
The MWE White platform has a built in silent mode for low wattage operation.
While your system is in standby mode or running at lower loads, the fan will not
spin. This ensures complete silence during casual operation. Once your system
passes the load threshold, the 120mm HDB fan will activate automatically and
cool the unit appropriately based on system use and needs.
FLAT BLACK CABLES
For many PC Builders with aesthetics in mind, cabling can be on of the most
troublesome parts of assembling a PC. Cables can be confusing, too short or too
long, and they almost never look good. The MWE White uses flat and flexible
black cables to help deal with these problems. These cables are more discrete
and flexible, making them easier to implement into your system while taking up
less space. This is especially useful for smaller cases and preserving
airflow.
