| The Available Certifications |
The difference between the four 80 Plus certifications available is summarized on the table below. The numbers presented are the minimum efficiency a power supply must present under each load in order to be granted a given certification. As explained on previous page, their numbers may be different from the numbers we see during our tests due to differences on the measuring equipment and especially on the room temperature (23º C on their tests vs. 45º - 50ºC on our tests). | 20% Load (Light) | 50% Load (Typical) | 100% Load (Full) | 80 Plus Standard | 80% | 80% | 80% | 80 Plus Bronze | 82% | 85% | 82% | 80 Plus Silver | 85% | 88% | 85% | 80 Plus Gold | 87% | 90% | 87% |
