TOP-600SG Silent Green (600W)

As opposed to most other Topower PSUs, this one has a proper name. It is called Silent Green.

The PSU is indeed painted this rather unusual color. The case, the label, the nylon sleeves on the cables and even the rubber knobs on the connectors are all various shades of green, from yellow-green to blue-green.

The highlighting is green, too. Well, the designers couldn’t quite resist the temptation to employ currently fashionable blue LEDs. The “Combined” LED (I’ll explain its function shortly) is just that color. I don’t quite understand why it couldn’t be made green like the rest of the PSU.

The Silent Green is different internally from the P7 series products I’ve discussed above. It doesn’t have independent regulation of voltages, but instead it has acquired active PFC.

Comparing it with modern high-wattage expensive PSUs, this one has got a traditional circuit design with a CM6800G-based controller and a single-ended inverter.

The Silent Green has two non-detachable cables – those of the CPU and mainboard. The others are to be connected as necessary to the 6-pin connectors you can find on its back panel.

The PSU is equipped with the following cables and connectors:

• Mainboard cable with a 20+4 connector (48cm)
• CPU cable with a 4+4 connector (48cm)
• Eight 6-pin connectors for other cables

Included with the PSU are:

• Two cables with three Molex connectors and one floppy drive connector on each (45+14+14+14cm)

• One cable with four SATA power connectors (45+14+14+14cm)

• Two graphics card cables with 6-pin connectors (45cm)
