On the 28th of April 2024, highly respected YouTube channel GamersNexus created a one hour video delving deep into the practises of Slovenian cooling company EKWB.

GamersNexus' video entitled ‘Exposing Corruption: EK's Prison Threats, Lawsuits, Dangerous Workplace, & Leaked Documents' was staggering – both in the depth of research and in the allegations presented by GamersNexus' own Steve Burke.

Would it be possible to get EKWB's CEO Edvard König on camera – asking him the hard questions? We don't know Edvard well, we heard he is a quiet man – but this is his company, he is responsible.

At completely our own cost, I booked our team some flights, hotel rooms and we brought all our own camera equipment so we always had complete control. We headed into EKWB HQ to get a face to face with Edvard himself.

We didn't know if Edvard would answer our questions, and we didn't know if what he would say would genuinely give any insights. EKWB could have kicked us out out at any minute – that thought had crossed our minds as the KitGuru team boarded the plane from London in the United Kingdom.

KitGuru says: What you see in this video was shot on 16th May at EKWB HQ, d.o.o. Komenda. Nothing has been removed. I made sure of that.

We have something a little special in our labs today, a new limited edition power supply from Seasonic, called ‘SAKURA'. For those of you who don't know, Sakura means ‘cherry blossom' – the national flower of Japan. This supply won't be released globally, just in Japan, parts of Asia and to the US audience via Micro Center. As of today there are no plans to release it in Europe. This power supply is fully modular, 80 Plus Gold certified and comes with a 12 year warranty.

As we can see by the image above, Seasonic have opted for a gentle pink accenting to the white unit, with a cherry blossom on display on certain sides of the case design. This unit is basically an updated Vertex GX-1000 with 12V-2×6 support.

In the words of Seasonic themselves, this unit is ‘carefully curated for a nurturing and spring-like ambiance, we've chosen a warm pink color palette. This hue, combined with a wave-patterned base, evokes a sense of renewal. The rear side of both the PSU and the PC is intricately designed with pink cutouts, enhancing the overall aesthetic and creating a harmonious visual experience.'

Today we take a look at another relatively new unit in the Enermax power supply range, the D.F. 12. This little PSU will suit a huge array of chassis designs given its diminutive 122mm length. It is fully modular, 80 Plus Gold rated and incorporates the Enermax Dust Free Rotation tech for ultra cleanliness. 

Enermax ship this unit with a 120mm double ball bearing fan. They have partnered up again with OEM RSY, who seem to have a good relationship with the company. We will take a closer look at the internal design when we open the chassis later in the review today.
