Full power rated up toiThe ambient temperature up to which the maker rates full continuous power, such as 50 °C. A review table that prints 0-50 °C with no maker source is not enough. An operating temperature range that does not say full power is not enough. A maker table with load steps gives the full-load row, such as 40 °C at full load next to 50 °C at 80 percent load. A temperature that a Cybenetics report marks as manufacturer-provided counts as a maker statement.

Cables and connectors

5 of 7 differ

CablesiOne row per kind of cable that runs from the PSU to a device. Connector is the plug at the device end. Count is the number of those plugs over all cables in the row. Length runs from the PSU end to the first plug. Adapters that plug into other cables are left out. Use 16-pin PCIe when the maker names a 16-pin GPU cable without saying 12V-2x6 or 12VHPWR. A cable from a 12V-2x6 socket on the PSU to 8-pin plugs is a cable, not an adapter, and counts as PCIe 8-pin. When the maker's documents name one GPU cable both 12VHPWR and 12V-2x6, use 16-pin PCIe and name both in the source note. Cables of one connector kind with different lengths or wire gauges get one row each.

Tolerance 10 mm. PCIe 8-pin is 1 single cable plus 1 cable with two 8-pin plugs, so 3 plugs on 2 cables. The 12V-2x6 cable is described as 600W capable. The SATA row covers a 4-plug SATA cable and a 2 SATA and 2 PATA cable. The two 4-pin plugs sit on the SATA and PATA cable, so the molex row takes that cable's 450 mm to its first plug. The quick start guide text lists 2 single PCIe 8-pin cables for this model, which does not match this table, the Cybenetics report or the Scan listing. The PSU side has one 12V-2x6 socket and three CPU/PCIe sockets (product photo), so the dual 8-pin cable takes the 12V-2x6 socket and cannot be used together with the native 12V-2x6 cable.4Measurementcybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2630Read 14 October 2026Cables and Connectors table gives wire gauge per cable: ATX 18-20AWG, EPS 18AWG, 6+2 PCIe 16AWG, 2 x 6+2 PCIe 16-18AWG, 12+2 pin PCIe (600W) 16-24AWG, SATA and Molex 18AWG.

ProtectionsiProtections the maker lists, or a retailer spec table copies from the maker, plus protections the Cybenetics protection tests show working (UVP, NLO, SIP). The Cybenetics manufacturer list has no OVP or UVP row, so do not build the list from it alone. A protection that is not listed may still exist. No-load covers no-load operation and no-load protection. Fan failure is a maker's fan failure protection or fan safeguard, also when the Cybenetics manufacturer block lists it.
