Enermax has updated their MODU82+, PRO82+, Liberty ECO and ECO80+ series of power supplies with the addition of a metallic clip that prevents the AC cable from getting out of its socket, a feature that keeps the PSU’s fan running for 30 to 60 seconds after the PC was shut down (to prolong the lifetime of the unit’s internal components) and a free 120-mm fan. To make easy distinction Enermax has included a number two (in roman algarism) in the end of their names.
