Care share any pc power stress test results of using this power cable?

It would be great if you have 3dmark stress test module as I am interested to see it's stability and performance score

This is stress test i able to share > https://cpux.net/cpu-stress-test-online?speed=0&threads=16&points=59035&power=75&fps=76

And benchmark test > https://cpux.net/b/o9c8q

Many thanks for sharing, your score is very good

but I have difficulties to see from the score of the power stability chart.

perhaps you could try this software OCCT (free for personal use)

https://www.ocbase.com/
I hereby sharing my 3 main reading using my standard PSU power cable of Voltage, Power & Current by selecting all option available (on the left panel select "Monitor" and tick all check box on right table as per my screenshot) :


VOLTAGE (Monitor) : the voltage supply to my motherboard & CPU was fairly consistentl




POWER (Monitor) : current power draw of my CPU & GPU



CURRENT (Monitor) : the current ampere to my CPU, most value is similar except SoC current was different.



what do you think of my current profile using the standard power cable?

fyi i am using UV profile for both CPU & GPU now when using this software.

Very appreciate if you could also advise how the power plug without fuse can help in the reading as gladly if you can test with and without fuse since you have both version of cable, many thanks

Nope. TS has been saying that power cord without fuse maximises performance with stable temps

 

[tsteo77]

Tested, no change in figures. Just what Ark Law mentioned maximises performance (audio/graphics/inputs/outputs) with stable temps due to wider electrical path, it won't draw more power than needed. Just like upgrading to a bigger size line/optical/speaker cable. Take note that it won't work if you can't plug directly to wall socket. Therefore my whole pc setup is plug into wall socket.

You can ask the online store dealer if you have any doubt about the fuse less power cable.

many thanks for the test results confirmation, appreciated a lot

This is interesting.
What is "wider electrical path" ?
It should not be compared with the gauge of the speaker cable as it is DC and not AC.
In your opinion, do you have another comparison?

The online store dealer will be unlikely to help as they did not market the cable as per what you describe ?

Edited - Minor edit for clarity.

AC power cable/electrical cable also have gauge (size) depend on voltage/ampere/power, just ask about it in electrical hardware store. And what i have notice that built in cartridge fuse is a restrictor (size of a hair) rather
than a safety device. Item will catch fire due to over load or unreliable of item even you have it. That does not include fusebox, as you will need to have one in house.

You have not answered the "wider electric path".

Since you had mentioned that "it won't draw more power than needed.", that would make the gauge of the wire, with or without fuse irrelevant i.e. smaller or bigger, with or without fuse , the power drawn is the same. If the power drawn is the same, how does such a cable without fuse maximizes performance?

My limited knowledge, I have not come across a cable that has a safety device. Maybe can show me.

Wider electrical path mean having thicker multi strand wires or sold state copper allowing for power to travel through it. Ask yourself why does a bigger size and better speaker cable perform better when use between amplifier and speaker ? Clear your mind and see for yourself > https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/fuse-electrical-safety-device-operates-provide-1093277105 it's odd that this small thing (safety device) can even be useful, maybe someone smarter can reveal the mystery.

Btw, i also know how to place fuse on worthless electrical items in my house so that i can have more electricity
for more important items since electricity supply are limited.

Performance is one thing. Protection is another. The fuse act as a safety device that prevent over current flow. When there is a overload, the fuse can interrupt and cut off the current flow and help to provide extra protection to your equipment.

 

[tsteo77]

You're right, protection is good but not over protection. Btw, interesting avatar and signature you have.

You already mentioned that power drawn is the same, therefore, the gauge of the AC wire is irrelevant i.e. thick or thin cable, the power is the same. How does that maximize the performance?

In the first place, the gauge of the wire wasn't even mentioned. What was mentioned was the fuse but apparently, it has been cast aside. So the question remains, if power is the same, how does the cable maximize performance?

P.S. Actually, how much is the performance gain ? 1%, 10%, 50% ?

Is the fuse a restrictor or a safety device ?
I stop short of asking you to clear your mind before answering me.

That's for high performance products like hifi/hts/sport car/sport bike/ modern computer etc. The power cable provided are basic, after market one which is usually better/thicker can maximise performance.

Changing from fused power cable to fuse less power cable is already a big increase in size. The amount of maximized in performance depend on items/usage/your capability and house wiring. But it's firm provided you plug directly to wall socket.

Lastly. the picture link fuse commonly use in power cable is more like a restrictor to me. You already have a fuse box and protection built inside electrical/electronics items.

Since the moderator has deleted the link.

1. The cable on the website did not indicate that it is thicker.
2. You have made assumption that it maximizes performance because that is what happened to speaker cables.
3. In your own terminology, a fuse is not a safety device but a restrictor.

Anyway, your aftermarket cable that maximizes performance cost SGD 1.34

1) Without fuse, more electricity pass through it, so in practical it's much bigger than fat looking one with fuse (empty vessel). Few years back, i brought the last few better and thicker fusel less power cable from SLT. I lost it.

2) Not assumption, i played the difference. Of course performance items is not for anyone just because you can afford it, Example you can afford a sport car but do you think you can fully utilise it's performance ?
Do a safe and simple test, Have a LCD TV with 2 pin plug and plug into wall socket and to a fused adapter.
There should be difference in video/sound/temperature/input (remote control/panel button). If not, forget about it, Not everyone can fully handle a sport car. I just share this out of good indention, I earn nothing.

3) Due to very low demand and it's not a high quality build, there are better one mentioned at #! and also maybe only a few peoples capable of using it.
