Coolermaster Realpower 550w ACLY SLI
We reviewed a similar power supply in the past from Coolermaster with pretty much the same features and specifications, you can find the previous review right here. The biggest difference with this newer power supply is that this new PSU from Coolermaster is SLI ready. I thought it would be a good idea to compare this new power supply to the older version and also show how it performs vs the powerful OCZ Powerstream power supply. My past experiences with Coolermaster products has been really good and it will be very interesting to see if this will perform as well.

The package has a big picture of the power supply itself and they have also printed a bunch of features and specifications about the unit.
I can already feel that there is a difference between generic and this power supply due to the weight difference, quality usually weighs a bit more.
