Right well my SMPS design texts say you are wrong as well so you might want to go ahead and tear up their library card.......

Yah, I've also heard "my A+ text said so", "My 3D graphic text from a well known respectable writer also said", "the 3Dfx engineer named White also said", and other variations.

Well pick up an SMPS text and start reading:

You keep posting this for some reason. Care to explain what you are trying to say?

What is there to say? PSU editor should be able to recognize ignorant craps. I expect them to be able to.

Hey!! maybe not, if they did it would not be there.

No no, I don't think you understand. I want you to step through what you are saying piece by piece because as it stands either your tenuous grasp on english grammar is an issue or you are completley off the wall. And I can't figure out which it is so rather than assume you are completely wrong I am giving you an opportunity to explain yourself clearly. Take it or leave it.

Why would anyone test "independently regulated" for crossload? What was it about "independently regulated" did they not comprehend?

Where is the crossload test for non independently regulated?

"Here we've 2 independently regulated ATX power supplies, we'll heavily loaded down one ATX power supply and not the other ATX power supply, then check for crossloading data.

See there, everything worked perfectly in specs, no crossloading problem."

Ok lets stop and think for a minute for theoretical reviewers who do crossloads. Independantly regulated units get "crossloaded" because in a modern PC they will be crossloaded so this representes a more realsitic loading state than by evenly loading the unit. Take a good clamping ammeter and check your power distirubtion usage for yourself and see. The vast majority of the power draw on a modern PC is from the 12v rails, then the 5v, and finally barely any from the 3.3v.

Next, "non independantly regulated" are called group regulated. They are also crossloaded because all units get tested the same because all units will be used in the same modern PC's and experience the same loads. Your contention that group regulated units are not crossloaded with a high 12v and low 5v/3.3v load is quite simply incorrect in reference to reviewers who do crossload tests. Indeed many will then go back the other way and heavily load the 5v/3.3v and lightly load the 12v rails for both independently regulated and group regulated units.

"Here we've 2 independently regulated ATX power supplies, we'll heavily loaded down one ATX power supply and not the other ATX power supply, then check for crossloading data.

Again this makes no sense since that does not occur as you have stated however you would know this if you did not have relevent websites "blocked on your network". Indeed the fact that you make an supposition as to the content of relevent reviews while admitting to blocking relevent review sites on your "network" makes the entirety of your claim that everyone is doing it wrong dubious at best.
