I don't know the whole story behind Cybenetics, but I think it started just a few years ago as one guy who was active in the hardware enthusiast community and dissatisfied with the info generally available about power supplies. He has been doing outstanding work, not only in measuring performance and efficiency in multiple dimensions, but also in measuring the noise produced by these things at various workloads, and publishing the results for free. The reports were instrumental in my last hardware purchase, and I'm very happy with the model I chose.
It's great to see his work recognized by a big vendor, and to see a big vendor moving to a superior certification system. Thanks for posting this.
that's actually incredible. cybenetics is based!
