Testing:
Temperature, Noise Levels and Fan Speeds:
I am not going to give a pass or fail in this section, as the ATX12V V2.2 does not really have any references on which to base a decision.
Temperatures are purely for information only, as there are too many variables involved when installed in a case, which, by the way, it wasn't. Ambient temperature, processor cooling efficiency and case cooling fans all play their part on the temperature of the air entering the power supply, and consequently the temperature of the air leaving it. As such, no valid conclusions can be made from this test.

The Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W power supply remained cool at all times with very low fan noise at low to medium DC loading. The full load fan speed of 2200RPM is a different story as it's far from silent, but I can't imagine many PC enthusiasts running the Cooler Master Silent Pro 1200W at full load for prolonged periods.
