Enermax offers up 'world's smallest' ATX 3.1 PSU, giving you more space for compact and rear-connector PC builds

Enermax Revolution D.F. 12 power supply.

With the ever-present popularity of compact PC builds, larger graphics cards, and the emerging trend of rear-connector / MG-RC motherboards and builds, it's a good time for power supplies to get smaller. And Taiwan's Enermax seems to agree, launching a Revolution D.F. 12 PSU line that it's touting as "the World’s Smallest ATX 3.1 Power Supply." It achieves these claims thanks to its 122mm depth and inclusion of the revised 600W 12V-2x6 cable for modern, high-power Nvidia graphics cards.

These compact PSUs are currently available directly from Enermax in 750W ($129) and 850W ($139) in basic black, while the white 850W variant is $10 more ($149).

In case you need a refresher on the general dimensions of PC power supply sizes and types, here's a comparison: 

Of course, PSU depth often varies, particularly at higher wattages. But from the numbers above, you can see that Enermax's new PSUs are 18mm, or 0.71 inches shorter than the average ATX power supply. And anyone who's ever built a PC in even a moderately cramped case knows that having even that small amount of extra space can make all the difference.
