Fractal Design ION Gold

It looks like a downgrade of the existing ION Platinum. No zero fan, LLS(maybe Rifle?) bearing fan, secondary side cap visible as Teapo SC and 7 year warranty. Still, the fan RPM still looks gentle.

 

I look forward to a more detailed review.

design wise it looks pretty slick, but that doesn't really matter since all cases have a PSU basement these days.

RPM wise it looks whisper quiet!

Nice, looking forward to detailed reviews too, maybe it will be more competitive than ION+ Platinum.

And there's already a review - https://www.kitguru.net/components/power-supplies/zardon/fractal-ion-gold-850w-psu-review/

The prices (in €) are more competitive than Platinum series - https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/fractal-releases ion-gold-psu-and-gives-is-7-years-warranty.html

Teapo SC is unfortunate, but it still seems to be pretty good build quality.
