Introduction

A couple of months ago I reviewed a power supply from a company called High Power, it was supplied by our friends at AOC. Today I have another power supply from High Power, this one also supplied to me by AOC for review. The one I reviewed earlier featured something a bit different, it had a wattage meter for your 5.25" bay. This power supply I have for review today does not have that, it has a wattage meter right on the back of the power supply, so you can easily monitor your power consumption without having to use a drive bay or run more wires through your computer. To be exact, for review today I have the High Power Plus Power Series power supply which is rated for 560Watts of power, model HPC-560-A12C. Come along with me as I see how well it works.

Yes there are three 12volt rails on this PSU, and the amps they are pushing should be more than enough to handle most systems out there today. It is also SLI and Crossfire ready, along with full support for both Intel and AMD dual cores.
