Honestly, they should just make you the director here so we can consult you every time we want something done. 😬
Look, truth be told, I don't know which specific era you're talking about because you clearly don't remember when Corsair power supplies were actually top-tier—one of the few branded units you could find at a local shop alongside Fortron. But that was ages ago, back when their units were built by CWT or Seasonic. They totally blew it when they tried to cut corners and switched to other manufacturers (that first series of CX units was a notorious disaster), though finding hard data on that is tough since nobody wants to broadcast those failures. Later, they went back to CWT, but not to Seasonic. Again, let me repeat: Corsair is essentially a design group for PSU "manufacturers," whereas Cooler Master has never actually made a single power supply in its life; they just slap their stickers on them. And it definitely 😬 happens where they put different labels on the exact same unit (just like Corsair does) and sell them as entirely different models.
However, there’s this thing called a UL number that every power supply has to carry. You can use that to see who actually manufactured a "premium" Cooler Master unit—whether it's AC Bell, Enhance, Hipro, or someone else... With Fractal Design, there's no mystery; everything they sell is produced by ATNG.
But sure, you'll probably come up with more reasons and explanations for why you claimed certain brands are manufacturers in your last post, just pulling something new out of thin air (did anyone even ask your opinion on AIOs or vents?) just so you can act smart... You're drifting further and further off-topic.
Just make up your mind: is the Hyper 500 any good or not? First you trash it relentlessly, and then:

🤣 boring....
