EVGA Power Supplies Ready for Intel Haswell CPUs

Intel recently launched the 4th Generation Intel Core “Haswell” processors that support new power saving modes: C6 and C7 idle states. These states are able to reduce the CPU power consumption to 0.05A, lowering overall system power consumption. In order to use this new feature, the requirements are to have the 4th Generation Intel Core processor, a compatible motherboard, and a compatible power supply. We recently shows you how to enable this power state and what it does to power consumption and temperatures when you are in an idle power state here.
