Power supply questions • What is the difference between amps and volts? • Voltage is like the pressure of the water, whileamps (the current) is the volume of water that flows past a fixed point in a fixed amount of time • How are AC and DC used within a power supply? • In direct current (DC), the electric charge (current) only flows in one direction. Electric charge inalternating current (AC), on the other hand, changes direction periodically. The voltage in AC circuits also periodically reverses because the current changes direction. • How do you size a power supply for your system? • OuterVision Power Supply Calculator is the most accurate PC power consumption calculator available and is trusted by computer enthusiasts, PC hardware and power supply manufacturers across the Globe. Are you building a modern gaming PC, low power HTPC media server, or maybe you need to figure out power requirements for a rack in a data center? We've got you covered - eXtreme PSU Calculator will help you to select a suitable power supply unit and even Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for your system. • What is the difference between fixed and modular connectors on a power supply? • Modular switches are generally high capability switches or we can say high end switches which can be customized as per network requirement for an example 6500,4500 switches. But modular switches have the capability that if you want more DRAM of flash it can be upgraded as per the network requirement. • What is the difference in voltage in the U.S. vs. Europe? • American appliances run on 110 volts, while European appliances are 220 volts. Newer travel accessories and electronic gadgets are “dual voltage,” which means they work on both American and European current.
