Ultra X4 Gold 1000W
Ultra has a storied past in the power supply market, not all of it a shining beacon of success, but they're looking to improve on past lessons learned with the next-gen X4 series. Marketed for enthusiasts (particularly gamers), the new X4 has an entirely modular setup in a compact form, is 80PLUS Gold Certified, and sports some nice features that look promising.

100% modular...I like that and it's look like a bad ass unit especially with the gold X name badge but the Ultra name is always give me the impression of cheap and affordable product. BTW, some of their products ain't cheap as you think.

I had an Ultra PSU 500W on my very first build several years ago
It sure looked pretty is all I will say about that!
"Gold certified" I keep seeing this show up more often now!
Are the rules specs posted some were here that show details and specs that have to be met for a vendor to receive the 80+ gold certification. I would love to know exactly what is the criteria for it
and does it really mean a "better product" for the consumer or is this just more hype! to make you buy their products?
Oh! good review Kip seems like a nice power supply I especially like the long cables.
As always, great review Kip!

Good article!
OK so my next question would be, do the reviews confirm in anyway that it does meet that criteria

They can't market it as 80+ certified unless it is.
