Only in one review: In test 225 W (5 V 200 W active power supply).

5 V 200 W active power supply: It easily delivers 200 W with low ripple and moderate heating, but the fan and input capacitors are concerns.

CTG-200W-12V: The author liked its topology and overvoltage protection, but found the input capacitor undersized.

Figures were taken from the review text and checked against the quoted passages. Measurement conditions differ between reviews, so read the reviews yourself before buying. Prices at the time of review.
