  1. The EVGA 650 N1 is a low-end PSU with low overall performance, low efficiency, noisy operation, and low-end parts at its internals. It managed to deliver, though, full load at 36 degrees Celsius, and its transient response at 12V is satisfactory, while the hold-up time is longer than what the ATX spec requires. Its build quality is low, and you should be careful not to overload its +12V rail since OCP is not correctly configured. This is definitely not stuff for our best PSU picks article, and you should get a Corsair CX650 or a CV650 instead. If you can pay more, you should also look at the Cooler Master MWE Bronze with similar capacity. The EVGA N1 line consists of three members with capacities ranging from 550W to 750W. These PSUs aim for the mainstream market, so they don't have any modular cables, and according to EVGA, they can deliver full power at a low ambient temperature, 25 degrees Celsius. Typically, high-end PSUs can deliver full power continuously at 50 degrees Celsius. Still, they use higher quality components to achieve this, which cost way more than the parts that EVGA and HEC used for the N1 models. Theoretically speaking, the 650 N1 could handle a strong graphics card like the Nvidia RTX 3070, but I would advise against that since it only has two PCIe connectors installed on the same cable, which uses thin 20AWG gauges. If you have invested a high amount for a good GPU, it's better spend a bit more to get a decent power supply. Getting a PSU based on your leftover money after purchasing all the other system parts is not a wise move All cables are fixed, and the amount of provided connectors is satisfactory, given that this is a mainstream PSU. All cables are long enough, but the distance between all peripheral connectors is short. Moreover, it is a great shame to use thin 20AWG gauges on the PCIe and SATA connectors, while the ATX spec recommends 18AWG, at least. We strongly encourage you to have a look at our PSUs 101 article, which provides valuable information about PSUs and their operation, allowing you to better understand the components we're about to discuss. This is a low-end platform from HEC, using an outdated design. On the primary side, there is an APFC converter, thankfully, and the two pain FETs are installed in double forward topology. On the secondary side, passive rectification is used along with a group regulation scheme where 12V and 5V are tied together, while the 3.3V rail is independently regulated. Group regulation is not recommended for any modern system since it requires a high enough load at 12V and 5V to keep voltages on these rails in control. If the load is unbalanced between the rails, load regulation goes south. The transient filtering stage includes all necessary parts, and it even uses an MOV and a discharge IC. It is a nice surprise to find discharge ICs in such low-end platforms. HEC was wise enough to use two bridge rectifiers in this platform, which are bolted on a heat sink. The APFC converter uses three MagnaChip FETs and one NXP boost diode. These are decent parts, but we cannot say the same for the Teapo bulk cap, which is only rated at 85 degrees Celsius. The primary switching FETs are configured in a double forward topology, which is rarely used nowadays since most manufacturers prefer half-bridge topologies in their mid-capacity PSUs. The only two coils on the secondary side are a clear indication of a group regulation scheme. To make matters even worse, SBRs (Schottky Barrier Diodes) are used to rectify all rails instead of FETs, which are much more efficient. The filtering caps on the secondary side belong to low-end Teapo and Elite lines. This PSU will have a hard time outliving the two-year warranty under higher than 30 degrees Celsius operating temperatures. The standby PWM controller is a Power Integrations TNY279PN, while the secondary rectifier is a PFC PFR10L60CT SBR. The latter is strong enough to handle the 5VSB rail's demands. The supervisor IC is provided by Weltrend and supports all necessary protection features but OTP, which looks to be missing from this platform. Soldering quality is satisfactory. Definitely not great, but good enough for this price range. EVGA states that the PSU's fan has a sleeve bearing, but I broke it apart and found an inferior rifle bearing. It is weird that EVGA's marketing team totally missed this.

  2. I’ve been an exclusive PC gamer for a few years now, and I love it. I initially made the jump from console to PC gaming about two years ago, as more and more of my friends were playing po[CENSORED]r games on PC, rather than on console. Games like Overwatch, Destiny 2, and Borderlands 3 were some of the multiplayer-heavy games that I played with friends, and as I continued to spend less time on my PlayStation 4, I picked up future games for PC only. My current gaming rig is certainly something that shocks a few people. It’s a Zotac Magnus EN1060, which is a delightful compact PC with some pretty decent internals. Sporting an Intel Core i5 processor, 32GB of RAM, 1TB SSD, and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 GPU, it’s seen me through a lot of my games, though capped at medium quality settings. I opted for this PC because of its tiny footprint – it barely takes up any space on my desk, yet it’s able to drive two of my monitors and has a ton of connectivity options at the back. But as modern games become more demanding, my space-saving setup is becoming less and less adequate at keeping up. What’s further putting a strain on my current PC is the fact that I also use it to stream to Twitch, which in itself is a resource-heavy activity. So games that I usually get around 80-100fps drop down to 40-50fps when I start streaming them. With games like Cyberpunk 2077 pushing the limits of what modern PCs are capable of, it’s time for me to put together a gaming rig that I’m personally content with, and one that I can choose to upgrade later on, should I choose to do so. The beauty of building your own PC is that you can put whatever components you like into it, matching both your budget and your needs. The parts that I’ve chosen for my build reflect what I currently need as well as what is available to me. You should always feel free to shop around for deals if you can, and always make sure that the components you’re buying are compatible with each other, just so you don’t end up with a PC build that doesn’t actually boot up. So with that all out of the way, let’s move on to the actual build: First comes the PC case, where all your components will comfortably sit. Your PC case also (to an extent) governs how much you can upgrade your PC in the future, especially when it comes to being able to fit larger components such as modern GPUs. The case being used here is the Lian Li Lancool II Mesh Performance, which offers an incredible amount of flexibility. In addition to supporting different motherboard sizes, the case also offers a lot of storage options, as well as easy access to almost any component via its side panels. Airflow is another important factor of this case, as you have a number of options available to install fans, radiators, or even water cooling options. I’ll be sticking with the three fans that come with the case, and relocating two of them to the top and one to the rear. To bring everything together, I’m opting for the Biostar B550GTQ motherboard. It’s an affordable, entry-level board that has some great features including supporting up to 128GB of memory, should I ever need such a phenomenal amount of RAM. More importantly, it offers plenty of storage options for M.2 and SSD/HDD drives. As a bonus, it also includes both 5V and 12V LED headers, to control any RGB lighting I add to the case. AMD has certainly being making a buzz about its products recently, and truthfully this will be my very first AMD-powered PC. The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X offers great value for performance and pricing, so it was a straightforward choice. While there are slightly cheaper processors that I could have selected, the Ryzen 7 3700X will be more than sufficient for gaming, streaming, and even tackling the occasional video editing project.

  8. American singer Lizzo, who was recently slammed for following a 10-day smoothie cleanse regime, took to TikTok to celebrate being vegan for the past six months. The Truth Hurts singer went on to appreciate how she was before and after the switch. As part of the video, she shared a throwback clip of her making a doughnut milkshake around the beginning of the lockdown. “Hey so I found this video of me from the beginning of quarantine making what looks like a stale doughnut, pound cake, milkshake type concoction,” the Cuz I love You singer shared. “This is from a whirlwind tour and year, and after being seven years vegetarian, going back to eating all animal products,” she added. The Grammy winner then switched to a video showing the present, in which she is seen making vegan protein shake. “I’m happy both ways and right now, this is what’s bringing me joy,” the 32-year-old singer said. “I’m still that happy girl, loving myself and loving my body,” Lizzo expressed as she switched to a clip of her posing in lingerie from Rihanna’s label Savage x Fenty. “Love yourself at all stages in your life because you are who you are,” she further emphasised.

  9. Charts, greatest-ever lists, top 10s, top 20s and top 100s – they all evolve over time because, obviously, stuff happens. 18 years have passed since Autocar assembled its original ‘100 Most Beautiful Cars’ list and new cars have also been launched in this fresh century at a frenetic rate as manufacturers race to fill niches opened by crossovers and alternative powertrains. New firms have arrived, too, and not all of them from the small industrial units of underfunded hopefuls. Let’s take a look at our current best – and feature as much original Autocar photography as we can:

  20. Lupa, based in Barcelona, is a start-up that is planning a wide range of low-cost electric vehicles whose biggest advantage lies in a range where they all have interchangeable batteries, which are sold separately to help maintain the lowest price. Its first model, the Lupa E26, will arrive in 2023 and will have a starting price of 17,000 euros, including the battery that the company values at 9,400 euros (without taxes). The Lupa E26 will use a skateboard-like platform to house a compact powertrain, combining the electric motor, transmission and electronics into a single unit, plus the battery. The brand has not confirmed whether it will develop it internally or buy it from a third party, but they have surely opted for the latter option. In terms of size, the E26 is from the same segment as the Renault Zoe, with dimensions of 4.07 meters in length, 1.78 m in width, 1.5 m in height and 2.59 m in battle (distance between axes). The Catalan manufacturer announces a power of up to 87 kW and an acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in just 9 seconds. Accumulating 42 kWh of capacity, the battery has a range that ranges between 320 and 400 kilometers (WLTP), depending on the type of driving. According to the information that is available, the E26 has three driving modes that impact the performance of the vehicle and its autonomy; in Sport configuration the engine produces 87 kW (117 hp), while in Normal it will be 66 kW (90 hp) and 48 kW (65 hp) in City. The E26 recharging time is around eight hours for a single-phase outlet, and five hours and 15 minutes for a three-phase 11 kW installation. With a fast charge in a 100 kW station it is capable of filling from 0 to 80% in just 30 minutes. Lupa astutely plans to offer a replaceable battery for around 8,700 euros (with a life expectancy of between eight and 10 years), and the company claims that all models will be able to fit the same battery. In addition, any collaborating workshop can install and repair it Beyond its first model, Lupa also plans to launch an electric delivery van optimized for the closest deliveries, followed by two SUV models in 2024, those destined to be called 64 and 42. The latter will be priced close to 11,500 euros. , although without the battery or the taxes included; the final sale price with the battery goes up to 19,100 euros. The Lupa 64, with more autonomy and a 64 kWh battery, will do the same from 23,000 euros. E26 and later models will be sold exclusively online. “The first model, if you buy it new, will have to be with battery, unless you buy it second-hand from another customer. What we want is that the client can change cars every two or three years without having to make an investment in paying for the battery. In addition, in this way we are able to extend the life of the battery and be more ecological ”, declared the founder of Lupa, Carlos Álvarez, to electdrive.com. Álvarez hopes the idea will not only lead to more sustainable use of the battery in a second life, but also to greater loyalty.
