Innovative Form Factor
The Lian Li Edge PSU utilises a unique L-Shaped form factor, where the power connectors have been moved to a dedicated housing. Thanks to this, the main PCB of the power supply can be extended into this space, allowing for direct mounting of the power connectors, a highly efficient design. Using this layout, your power cables will exit at a 90-degree angle, compared to a standard PSU. This leads to a much cleaner cable setup, as there will be no kinks or bends to your wires.
Alongside this, the unique layout is much more user-friendly, especially when installed in a dual-chamber case where the PSU is vertically mounted. You’ll have easy access to all the power outputs, perfect for plugging in your power cables or making upgrades when the PSU is mounted in place. What’s more, many enthusiasts with standard layout cases can also enjoy this advantage. A wide range of cases that include a PSU shroud, also include removable cover plates for mounting storage drives. These removable covers also provide access to the PSU chamber, so that when the Lian Li Edge is mounted with the fan facing up, you can easily access the power plugs from the main cavity of your case.
With the power connectors moved to their own housing, Lian Li has been able to include an additional feature with this PSU, a USB 2.0 hub! With this, you can connect up to four USB devices such as Lian Li’s UNI FANs or Strimer cables, to a single header or USB port on your motherboard, ideal for motherboards that may provide only one or two USB headers.
