Item: Apevia Warlock 900 Watt Power Supply
Supplied By: Apevia
Reviewer: Kevin Elliott
Introduction
Our friends at Apevia have have long been known for making some very nice mid-priced cases, but as of late they have started to turn some of their attention to high-end power supplies. The review we are doing today will be showcasing one of these new power supplies A few years ago if someone had of mentioned that they were going to need a 900 to 1000 watt power supply to operate their computer someone would have assumed you had forgot to take your morning medicine. That is not the case today as faster processors and multiple GPU's, terabyte hard drives demand that we add larger and heavier duty power supplies to our systems.

Apevia Corporation is the new name for Aspire International Corporation which was established in March 1999. Due to lots of confusions between Aspire cases, Acer's Aspire Notebook systems and Aspire Credit Cards, we have decided to change our name to Apevia Corporation in June 2006. With the strategy of standing behind our customers to ensure their total satisfaction, Apevia has been working closely with its customers and focusing on providing innovative quality PC products and services to keep up with the fast changing market. Today, Apevia is one of industry leaders for PC chassis.
Apevia designs, imports and markets PC parts including Computer Cases, Accessories and Peripherals such as Case Fans, Power Supplies and Matching Color Keyboard/Mouse/Speaker Kits. In 2004, to ensure the products quality and provide better services to our customers, we have consolidated our cases, power supplies, in-put devices, accessories all under Aspire logo (now they are under our new name "Apevia" logo) From designing the prospective products to offering final products to our customers, each process is carefully and strictly evaluated to meet our highest standards and market demands. Apevia delivers reliable quality products, competitive prices, steady supply and excellent services, as well as its commitment to "total customer satisfaction".
