The X-560 is the third power supply from the Seasonic X-Series that we have seen to date and it once more is an excellent product. The X-560 posted excellent Load Testing results once more as well as very very good efficiency that did slightly trail the other members of the X-Series, though not by much. Additionally, we once more saw an X-Series unit that had AMAZING DC output quality, was almost totally silent throughout testing, and featured excellent build quality. The one weak point here was again the Transient Load Testing results, but this is not as bad as it would have been had the unit been a letdown in any other category as well. With a street price of ~$129.99 the X-560 is more expensive than a lot of its other competitors, but then again it does outperform all of those competitors in just about every category going by quite a margin. In the end, the X-560 firmly falls into the category of "buy once cry once" as this is an exceptionally good high end unit that is backed by a 5 year warranty from a high quality manufacturer. Quality costs but quality also lasts.
