SilverStone ET700-MG Power Supply Review

Over Power Protection and Max Wattage
Despite being officially rated to 700 watts, it is perfectly normal for power supplies to offer a little headroom above this amount. Largely, to ensure that if the user doesn’t quite get their power consumption maths correct, the PSU can accommodate for a little ‘wiggle room’. What we did not expect, however, was for the SilverStone ET700 to achieve nearly 600 watts over it’s rated value.
This is, quite frankly, an amazingly huge overhead and, just in case it needed confirmation, the OPP’s (to shut down the power supply) worked absolutely perfectly.
