Product:  Coolmax CXI-500B 500 watt Power Supply
Provided by: Coolmax
Reviewer: K. Elliott

Introduction

Coolmax is a name I have known for quite some time since I am running one of the fanless power supplies in my sons computer that is our family room and we wanted the machine to be quiet as possible. They have also may a name for themselves selling such things as heatsinks, fans and lighting accessories to name just a few so they are no new comer when it comes to computer parts.

The CXI-500B power supply we are reviewing today is designed to meet the new ATX 2.0 standards which means it has the 24-pin power connector as well as dual and separate 12 volt lines which help considerably in being able to divide the 12 volt lad across the two lines so that one side is not being sucked trying from all of the items being connected to it.

About Coolmax

Coolmax Technology, Inc. is a rapidly growing company that was founded in the year 1992. Our initial task of providing cooling solutions for electrical and industrial applications using AC and DC voltage fans is our solid foundation. Our commitment to excellence in both products and service had earned for us the reputation as a leading thermal solutions provider in the industry. We strive to work hard, hand in hand with our clients, from the biggest to the smallest. They rely on our company's ability to provide quick and professional responses to inquiries and production demands. Our factories are located in China and are ISO9000 and 14001 certified, all our products are UL, TUV, CEL, CE approved.

Along with this line, we are also channeling our efforts to include our services in the field of Rapid Injection Molding. Our focus is to provide new product developers and designers with the fastest and least-expensive way to obtain low volumes of plastic injection molded parts.
In this regard, we have also embarked on a new venture that will allow us to provide high quality cold forged and extruded heat sinks for a variety of applications. Our world class products can support the high-end PCs in both electronics and industrial applications.
As with many companies, the focus of the company soon diversified as technological advancements created new and exciting opportunites. The challenge of providing computer users with only the best that the industry could offer opened us to a whole new horizon of opportunities in product innovations. Thus, we were able to branch out into other fields. Our major product line includes External Enclosures for hard drives, CD Rom/DVD drives, Power Supplies, Cables and Case Mods.
