I wouldn't hold my breath, don't think it went past vaporware

Sure Enhance Electronics makes excellent industrial-quality server and workstation PSUs. But for general PC enthusiasts, I believe the Titanium rating is diminished returns in price/quality/efficiency-performance ratios (no matter who the OEM is).

There are gold rated PSUs available with Japanese capacitors for a lot less in the same wattage range. EVGA's SuperNOVA G2 series immediately comes to mind for example. Is the 800W Silverstone Platinum really worth $75(US) more than EVGA's 850W G2? I'd have a hard time justifying it.

That's unfortunate. They had it at CES just last month!

Why show off a product like that and not release it? I'm ready to throw money at the screen already!

SIlverstone's ATX PSUs serve a niche market segment. It can fit in cases like the Lian Li PC-Q10 where other PSUs can't. In cases like these they are without competition.
