Introduction:

    Today I'll be taking a look at a new power supply from Ultra Products called the X-Finity 500w Power Supply in a mirrored black finish (model# ULT31845). This new power supply is a bit of a departure from the typical hot-rodded power supply in today's market. There is no fancy modularized cabling system or super-bright quad LED fans.

   However there is some things this power supply has that I have not seen before and truly distinguish it from the pack. There's far too much for me to re-iterate here so I might as well show you some facts you'll see on the Ultra Products X-Finity PSU Page. Let's take a look at some of the specifications as stated by Ultra..
