Manuals of product Pylon
Editorial note
The XPG Pylon is a PC power supply that stands out with its 550 W power and 80 PLUS Bronze certification, thus ensuring appreciable energy efficiency. Its robust design, with a mean time between failures of 100,000 hours, demonstrates its durability and reliability, making it a wise choice for those seeking a stable solution for their system. However, the non-modular cabling can make installation a bit cumbersome and detract from the internal aesthetics of the case. Additionally, while the power is adequate for many systems, it may prove insufficient for high-end configurations. The 120 mm fan, although effective, can also generate noticeable noise under heavy load, which may disturb some users. In terms of connectivity, the XPG Pylon offers solid features, with overload and short-circuit protection devices, thus ensuring optimal safety. However, the lack of Molex connectors for peripherals may limit compatibility with some older components. Overall, the value for money is good, particularly for users looking for a reliable and efficient power supply. The provided documentation, including a manual and a quick start guide, is comprehensive and offers good support for the installation and use of the device. The modern design and active thermal management also add to its appeal, although there is room for improvements in layout flexibility inside the case.Score details
