So far this year OCZ have been on top form, they have furnished the market with a number of innovative products. Whilst these products have mainly been concerned with the storage sector OCZ have also been revamping their various PSU series. The series we are to take a look at today may not be classified as innovative but it certainly hopes to carry on a good thing.

Most PSUs that name themselves modular refer to a certain group of cables that are removable but the ZT boasts a completely modular configuration – even the motherboard ATX cable is detachable. The ZT series adopts 80 Plus Bronze certification and is available in following variants 550W, 650W, and 750W. Today we will be taking a look at the first model and lowest rated wattage – 550W. Ideal for those who are looking to build a gaming system with a powerful graphics card and typical assortment of drives and devices.
