Short Circuit Protection:
I short circuited the 3V3, 5V0 and all four 12V lines in turn. The power supply did shut down, and once the short was removed and the unit switched off for at least one second, it then resumed normal operation. Although listed here at the beginning of the testing section, I tend to leave this test until the very end, in case it doesn't quite go to plan.

The DC output voltage load regulation of the Hiper Power Type M 780W is satisfactory and all voltages maintained well within the ATX12V specification. I would have liked to see the +5VSB rail a little nearer the 5V0 level rather than the 4.9V consistently produced during the test, but this should not cause any problems.
