OCZ EliteXStream 800W Power Supply Review | ||

| Packaging & Accessories Packaging & AccessoriesSince this is a brand new power supply line for OCZ it seems like they decided to revamp their usual packaging scheme to better fit a high-end power supply. By decking it out in a classy black and blue color scheme, OCZ has definitely done well with conveying as much information as possible about the features of the EliteXStream without using gaudy graphics. The front holds a picture of the power supply along with several bullet points outlining the benefits it brings to the table. Meanwhile, the back of the box holds yet more talk of features as well as the 80Plus logo and an indication of the 5-year Power Swap warranty. Bullet points are the name of the game here and even the side has them aplenty with mention of a very impressive claim that the EliteXStream can deliver its total output at 50°C. Since we have no way to test this we will have to take OCZ’s word for it. Once the box is opened, we see that the power supply is protected quite well by both top and bottom foam inserts as well as a pink plastic bag to protect it against scratches. Additionally, all of the cables are pushed off to the side in order to provide a bit more lateral protection. The no-frills accessory list includes an instruction manual, a standard power cord, mounting screws and a pair of very small zip-ties. Considering the price OCZ is asking for the EliteXStream, the lack of any additional accessories is completely understandable. | ||
