Power Range and Series Variants
The GLE series is split into two categories based on power output:
- Lower Rated Power: Includes 650W, 750W, and 850W models.
- Higher Rated Power: Includes 1000W and 1200W models.
These categories come with different designs for the outer casing, modular interfaces, and fan structures. Additionally, the internal circuit designs differ between the two groups to cater to their specific power needs.
High Performance and Durability
One of the highlights of the COUGAR GLE series is its ability to withstand intense workloads. The units have successfully passed four dynamic peak load tests, a requirement for compliance with the ATX 3.1 specifications. They come equipped with a native 12V-2×6 connector, allowing for better power delivery to high-performance components, such as GPUs. The series also supports an operating temperature of up to 40°C, thanks to the use of high-quality Japanese capacitors rated for up to 105°C.
Enhanced Cooling and Design
Cooling is a key consideration in the GLE series. COUGAR has equipped these power supplies with 135mm HDB (hydraulic dynamic bearing) fans, which are customized for each model. The lower-powered versions feature fans with 11 blades, while the higher-powered models come with fans that have 9 blades. The higher-powered variants also include special design elements, such as four openings in the fan frame and concave corners, aimed at reducing turbulence and preventing blade deformation during operation.
Conclusion
COUGAR’s GLE series offers a robust power solution for both mid-tier and high-performance systems. With its 80PLUS Gold efficiency, strict adherence to Intel’s latest standards, and attention to cooling design, this series is poised to deliver stable power and enhanced durability for demanding setups.
