We were absolutely impressed by GlacialPower GP-AL650AA, especially since it comes from a not so well-known company. It can deliver its labeled power at 48º C and was one of the few units we tested to date to surpass the 90% efficiency mark! Ripple and noise levels were also at very good numbers. Even though it has a very Spartan looks, GlacialPower GP-AL650AA has nothing to do with other units around with simple looks that simply explode if you try to pull its full labeled power or that present mediocre efficiency.
Now GlacialPower needs to invest in marketing to make sure people will know they have good products. And by “marketing” we don’t mean “advertising”, but simply the ability to bring this product to a wider market.

PS : At last, GP AL650 was reviewed by most reliable site, and the performance is very good. GP AL650 has been a debated PSU in TE, couple of months ago, one of TE User was blindly recommending it @ 4.4k over Corsair VX450W. I'd like to hear prices & availability of same from TE Distris, if any distris have same PSU in stocks, Plz send it to TE for review..:)

the only problem wit this psu is the warrant!!! its jus 2yrs!!

More warranty= more cost. You can buy antec ea 650 with warranty of 3 years or tx650 for 5 years warranty- but then again you will say "The only problem with the psu is the cost!!!"

well said.
but it is common attitude '"wanting more"
 
mmnn

so it seems defenitely better than VX 450 which is still going up on price segment. Now its at some 4.1k.

VX 450 is good for a 450W PSU and takes almost 570W load but too bad for the 4.1k price tag.

while GP-AL650AA is good for a 650W PSu and takes almost 730W load, and too good for 4.8k.
 
Look at the next page...is pulling a load of more than 700 wattts...thats really good. I know the corsairs do that as well, but then look at the price difference....check vx450, get this....thats my new mantra.
