I can't begin to stress
just how important the Power Supply is when building your own high performance
system. The overall quality and stability of your Power Supply is vital to the
increasingly power hungry components. PC Power & Cooling is quite
eminent on the subject and is why they have been offering PC Enthusiasts with
only the highest quality Power Supply Units money can buy. Nowadays,
however, looks are just as important as performance for many case modders and
enthusiasts. That is where the Turbo Cool 510 Deluxe comes in. Hence its Nick
Name "Beautiful Beast", this highly attractive PSU offers a well-balanced
combination of performance, reliability and beauty.

The Turbo Cool 510 Deluxe comes in an attractive
black matte outer shell. The rear of the unit features an on/off switch
and sports a black 80mm fan with a black grill to match its overall theme.
There is no fan on the front of the unit but there are vent holes in place.
Speaking of holes, the unit has special holes located both on the top (near
label) and sides of the unit that are there to easily gain access to the
potentiometer controls for those who would like to tweak or make adjustments
to the voltages.

To match the full black housing and grill of
this PSU, a black mesh is used on all cables. Overall, the sleeves are
nice and tight and finished with some black heatshrink tubing. A very
nice job is done on the cables. Sleeved cables eliminate unwanted cable
clutter and significantly improves the overall appearance of the system.
They are all nice and long and should provide enough clearance for all cases,
including full towers. Unlike a majority of Power Supplies in the market,
the Turbo Cool 510 Deluxe includes two Serial ATA cables as well.
Considering the growing number of Serial ATA drives, I was quite pleased to
see these.
