Re: [H] EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 1300W Power Supply Review

Well Good to know that gave it their award. EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2Paul's Thoughts: The EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 is what the EVGA NEX-1500 Classified should have been. Literally everything that EVGA did wrong on the NEX-1500 Classified was done right on the SuperNOVA 1300 G2. That coupled with the other very "meh" units we have seen in interim makes it just odd to see such a competent selection of OEM and platform pop out of EVGA now. If this were a school exam we'd have to check on EVGA for cheating, but we bought this at retail, it is NOT a sample from EVGA. This is what users get, and it is good. This is kind of product that if it carries through the rest of the line should make established players like Corsair sweat as this unit is passing those PSUs by and the likes of Antec, SilverStone, and Seasonic concerned because if EVGA can keep this up that object in the mirror is closer than it appears and it says EVGA on the front license plate. Everything is not perfect with the SuperNOVA 1300 G2 as there are some build quality issues that should be addressed before this carries a price premium (soldering and component choices) as well as the awful support and Transient Load Test results but substantially, this unit is head and shoulders above what EVGA has been doing. The only thing this leaves me wondering is, what do the rest of EVGA's newer products look like? I really like my Two EVGA NEX-1500 Classified Power Supplies. And Software.

The butt hurt is over 9000 on this reviewer!! I expect nothing less.... Reminds me why Jonnyguru is the place for a quality review.

If you have an opinion it's called being butthurt now? Just so you know HardOCP purchased the unit to do a review. EVGA is the one that is butthurt over HardOCP review of evga gpu cooler over 10years ago. One of the owners of Jonnyguru works for Corsair. Talk about a conflict of interest. Corsair PSU was the only one to receive a perfect score.

This power supply came out a while ago. Why is a review coming up for it now?

Because EVGA didn't sent a sample to Hard. They just ordered one online at their own convenience (time, money, etc) and reviewed it.

The general consensus is that it is a good PSU I am guessing. At least mine has survived the punishment my GTX Titans deliver on a daily basis

Perfect score on Corsair AX1500i 1500W. While no other site gives it the same 10/10. Jonnyguru site founder works for Corsair. Having a boss that works for the company that you do a product review on has no way to influence the review at all... http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=378

Excrpt that isn't true.
http://www.jonnyguru.com/...op=Story6&reid=389
Evga 1200 p2 score 10/10
I think Sim was trying to say that the Corsair AX1500i only received a perfect score on Jonnyguru and no other website. Not that Jonnyguru has only given out one perfect score and only to Corsair. Meaning that Jonnyguru was favoring the Corsair and looked past its flaws and still gave it a perfect.

Nice, so you are calling Jeremy a shill for Corsair? Funny how this same shill had no problem ripping BFG a new one in reviews when Jon worked for them. jonnyGURU.com Whenever Jon has employment that creates a conflict of interest, he bows out of the participation in doing reviews, but he's a permanent fixture in the forums.
